Jane Nicholls, BACP

Jane Nicholls is a BACP-registered counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years' experience. She works with adults who are dealing with anger alongside relationship strain, stress, anxiety, loss and major life changes. Her practice also covers concerns such as self-esteem, addiction, trauma, sleep and eating difficulties, and career-related pressures.

Jane uses an integrative style, combining practical tools and open conversation. Sessions focus on making sense of difficult feelings, spotting patterns that feed anger, and trying out different ways of responding. She keeps language straightforward and prefers clear steps over jargon.

Her work often foregrounds attachment and how early relationships shape present reactions. She draws on client-centred principles to listen without judgement and on cognitive behavioural ideas to test unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. Trauma-focused methods may be used when past events are affecting current coping.

People who come to her can expect a conversational approach that mixes reflection with specific techniques. Jane encourages small experiments between sessions so people can try new responses in everyday life. She highlights communication skills and boundary work when relationship conflict or control issues are involved.

Across sessions she aims to help clients reduce reactivity and increase choices about how to respond to triggers. Practical strategies for managing stress, improving sleep and addressing addictive patterns are offered alongside exploration of grief, shame or attachment wounds.
