About Jayne

BACP. 15 years' experience. Jayne Sinclair is a counsellor in the United Kingdom who works with stress, anxiety, grief, low mood and life changes. She uses a range of approaches including attachment-based work, client-centred practice, cognitive behavioural techniques, hypnotherapy and Jungian ideas.

Jayne describes herself as an integrative counsellor who draws on different methods to suit each person. She has 13 years' experience as a hypnotherapist and uses that alongside talking therapies to address issues such as anxiety, grief, negative thought patterns and trauma. She also supports people with parenting and family separation concerns, anger, motivation and career-related questions.

She has substantial experience with young people, having worked 14 years in primary and secondary schools while maintaining a private practice. With children and young people she uses creative methods such as art, writing, breathing exercises, relaxation and meditation techniques to help expression and coping.

In sessions Jayne aims to work at different levels - talking through patterns, practising breathing and relaxation, and using hypnotherapy when appropriate. She also applies cognitive behavioural ideas to recognise unhelpful thoughts and try alternative responses.

Clients looking for help with eating and body image concerns, attachment questions, adoption and foster care issues, or fertility and fatherhood topics can bring those matters to sessions. She also offers coaching-style support for direction, self-esteem and decision-making.

Jayne works in English. International clients are not accepted. Fees vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin the process clients complete a short questionnaire and book a first appointment.

Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions

Jayne commonly uses attachment-based work and client-centred counselling in sessions. Attachment-based work looks at patterns in close relationships and how early bonds affect current feelings and behaviour, which can help with relationship issues, abandonment and attachment concerns. Client-centred counselling focuses on the person’s experience and priorities, using reflective listening and open dialogue to help people find their own solutions.

She also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to identify unhelpful thought patterns and try practical alternatives. CBT-style work is often used for anxiety, low mood and coping with stress and can involve simple exercises and behavioural experiments between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and Jayne works collaboratively to decide what fits best. She discusses options with each person, links methods to the issues they bring and adapts the plan as work progresses.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work, childcare and other commitments, reduce travel time and allow a shorter check-in when needed. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists commonly use these benefits to make regular sessions more practicable for everyday life.
