About me
Welcome
Hello, I’m Diane Jane — a BACP-accredited Psychotherapist, Counsellor, and EMDR Practitioner with over 25 years of experience. I am also an experienced therapeutic Clinical Lead, with a strong background in supporting individuals through complex and sensitive issues.
I offer therapy in a flexible way that suits your needs — whether face-to-face, online, or by phone. Over the years, I’ve worked with people from many walks of life, helping them navigate a wide range of emotional, relational, and psychological challenges. You’ll find a calm, confidential, and non-judgmental space to talk, reflect, and begin moving forward.
How I Work My approach is integrative and tailored — drawing from therapies such as CBT, EMDR, and person-centred counselling. Whether you're looking for short-term support or longer-term therapy, we’ll work together to find what’s right for you.
I specialise in trauma and have extensive experience working with survivors of unwanted sexual experiences and abuse. I’m also trained in pre-trial therapy, offering sensitive and ethical support for those involved in the legal process.
Issues I Work With Whether you're facing a specific issue or just feeling stuck, therapy can help you find clarity and direction. I work with:
Anxiety, stress & panic
Trauma & PTSD
Unwanted sexual experiences
Relationships & separation
Depression & low mood
Bereavement & loss
Low self-esteem
Work stress & burnout
Feeling stuck or lost
Taking the First Step Making contact can feel difficult, but it’s a brave and meaningful first step. If you’d like to explore whether therapy is right for you, feel free to get in touch by phone, email, or text. We can arrange an initial appointment — to talk through what’s brought you here and how I may be able help.
Warm regards,
Diane Jane

Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
