Jan Shine

Hi, I’m Jan. Through my own personal experience of struggling with life’s challenges, I know how hard it is to take that first step and reach out for support. When I did so, I realised how important it is to trust your counsellor and feel that they totally ‘get’ you. This is what guides my own practice as a therapist. I offer a safe space where you will be heard and understood without judgement. We will work at your pace and focus on what you wish to discuss. I will never lead or presume to know what meets your needs. Through this process, I will support you to make sense of and to find your own way through what is impacting on your wellbeing.

I provide in-person sessions in Milton Keynes and work remotely via video call or telephone depending upon your preference.

I offer a free introductory discussion which is a chance for us to meet each other and find out whether what I can offer is right for you without committing to booking further sessions.

I have many years of experience in the adoption field, and am qualified to provide specialist counselling for adults affected by adoption (adoptees, birth relatives and adoptive family members).
