Jane Hetherington

I am an integrative psychotherapist who trained at Metanoia. I have an MSc in Integrative Psychotherapy, an MSc in Mental Health and Diploma in Clinical Supervision. I have 20 years experience as a psychotherapist working in both the voluntary and statutory sector. I currently supervise individuals and teams at both the University of Kent and for the Forward Trust in addition to supervising counsellors and psychotherapists in training. In addition I have a wide range of experience of both couple and family therapy work.

I believe in providing support and guidance within the supervisory relationship and where necessary will suggest reading to enhance further learning and good practice.

I am an experienced integrative psychotherapist and have a Masters in Integrative Psychotherapy and in Mental Health. I have worked in the NHS as a principal psychotherapist in teams that deliver services to those experiencing a range of different issues, including addiction problems. I believe in using my abilities to fit the needs of my clients and working collaboratively on the issues that are causing them distress. I do not believe in a one size fits all type of therapy but rather in adapting my approach to what the individual, couple or family require. I believe that the relationship between the therapist and client is all important and pivotal to the client’s ability to make the changes they require. I think that it is my role as a therapist to assist the client in achieving a happier life and fulfilling their individual needs.

I normally offer a free phone consultation to establish what the client needs from therapy and whether I feel we will be able to work well together. I then offer an assessment appointment which the client pays for and which is slightly more than my sessional rate.
