Jane Low

I work face to face and remotely, ie via  FaceTime, Skype, WhatsApp, Teams, Zoom

I have many years of experience working within different therapeutic settings, namely a GP practice,  hospice, Victim Support, Women's Aid, and with women in custody. 

 I have learnt and continue to learn much about myself and others from my work and that I am able to be sensitive to so many different and difficult situations.

 I believe my work with women in custody has enhanced my practise in many ways, particularly in widening my understanding of the complexities of human life. Being able to empathise with my client/s in some pretty challenging circumstances is critical here. 

Generally I am well used to working with, amongst many other complex issues, addictions, anxiety, depression, anger, loss , relationship and family issues. So many of these encompass a loss of self-confidence and self-esteem.

"….It was exactly the help I needed, delivered with the professional, yet compassionate style I wanted to hear…I feel so much more empowered that there is a way forward, I don’t panic anymore…" (client C.)

I offer a confidential and non-judgmental space where my client and I can grapple with resolving their problem/s in a way that will give long-lasting relief. I draw on a combination of my extensive trainings and work to help.

My  belief and experience shows me that somewhere deep down most of us know ourselves better than we think, but that we have along the way lost that self-belief which in turn leads to a lack of self-confidence, bad habits etc. Our work can include many dimensions, notably perhaps gaining more understanding of how the past has impacted your present, exploring ways you think about certain things and  perhaps challenging some related maladaptive behaviours. Our work can also be very focussed on a particular aspect of your life where some astute problem-solving can be all that is needed.

Whatever you bring,  I can offer short-term and long-term therapy to individuals and couples. 

I adhere to the BACP Code of Ethics and I am fully insured.

When you first contact me I will always suggest we meet for an initial session either face to face or virtually (whichever suits you best), where we can discuss/explore what you need, I can tell you more fully about how I work, and what I can therefore offer, and then you can decide whether you would like to continue.
