Somatic and attachment-informed counsellor

JS Portrait of Jane Stevens

About Jane

Jane Stevens is a counsellor who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and low self-worth. She offers calm, patient support for those feeling overwhelmed or stuck. Jane creates a non-judgemental space where people can take things at their own pace.

She uses body-focused methods alongside talk therapy to help people notice how their experience shows up in the body. That somatic work is combined with attachment-based and client-centred approaches to make sessions feel personal and grounded.

Background and approach

Practical steps and gentle exploration are mixed depending on what a person needs. Jane has seven years of experience working with teenagers and adults across different settings. She has worked extensively with people on the autism spectrum and is familiar with the particular stresses that can bring.

Her background gives her a steady, measured style when dealing with difficult memories and painful emotions. Sessions are shaped around each person rather than a fixed programme. Jane aims to help people build clearer boundaries, cope with life changes, and develop more self-compassion.

She welcomes a wide range of emotions and identities and works to make the therapy space feel respectful and open. People can expect a compassionate listener who balances talking with body-awareness exercises and practical techniques. The work moves at the client’s pace, with attention to safety and small, manageable steps.

Approaches you can use in online sessions

Somatic Therapy helps people notice how stress and emotion show up in the body and uses simple awareness and movement to ease physical tension and overwhelm. It can be useful for anxiety, panic and after traumatic events.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how early experiences shape current reactions. It helps people understand why they may struggle with trust, abandonment fears or emotional distance and find new ways to connect with themselves and others.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will listen to your concerns, try a few ways of working and agree what fits best. This is a collaborative process that adapts over time to your goals and comfort level.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. That range allows people to choose the format that feels safest and most convenient, whether they need spoken conversation or shorter messaging check-ins. Remote sessions make it easier to fit therapy around family, work and mobility needs while keeping the focus on steady, practical progress.
