About Jayne

Jayne Sinclair is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 15 years of professional experience. She is a BACP-registered practitioner and combines different therapy methods to meet each person's needs. Jayne also practises hypnotherapy and has used it alongside talking therapies to help adults process difficult emotions.

Her work often focuses on stress, anxiety, low mood and coping with life changes. She helps people managing grief, eating and body image problems, family and relationship difficulties, and challenges around parenting and fatherhood. Career concerns, motivation and confidence are also common themes in her practice.

Jayne draws on attachment-based and client-centred ideas to create a calm, respectful space for talking. She also uses cognitive behavioural techniques and elements of Jungian thinking when these suit someone's goals. Hypnotherapy is offered as an additional option for people who are interested in that approach.

She has experience supporting people around adoption and foster care issues, abandonment, blended family matters, fertility questions and ageing-related concerns. Jayne has worked with people dealing with trauma, anger and communication problems as well as attention-related difficulties such as ADHD.

Outside one-to-one sessions she has worked in schools and spent many years supporting young people through creative activities like art, writing and breathing exercises. If someone is unsure where to start, Jayne asks questions and listens to help shape the first steps together.

How Jayne's approaches work in online therapy

Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions can help people notice those patterns and practise new ways of relating to themselves and others. Client-centred counselling prioritises what the person brings to the room and uses listening, reflection and gentle questioning to build understanding and confidence.

Cognitive behavioural techniques look at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offer straightforward exercises to try between sessions. These tools can help with anxiety, low mood, unhelpful thinking and practical coping strategies for life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which combination of methods fits their needs, goals and preferences. That choice can change as therapy progresses and will be revisited together.

The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions around busy days and reducing travel time. If you prefer a shorter check-in or not being on camera, discuss this when you book. Confirm which session formats are offered before scheduling so you know what will suit your routine.
