Jayne Brannan , BACP

Jayne Brannan is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She has four years of experience supporting adults through stress, anxiety and relationship concerns. Jayne aims to make the first step feel manageable and clear for anyone feeling stuck.

Her approach is warm and straightforward. Sessions focus on what is happening now and on practical steps that can help you feel steadier. Jayne listens for patterns around self-esteem, grief and coping with life changes and helps clients name what feels unsafe or overwhelming.

She often works with people dealing with attachment wounds, abandonment fears and caregiving strain. Communication problems, control issues and the aftermath of separation are also common topics in her work. Jayne pays attention to guilt, shame, and isolation so those feelings can be understood rather than carried alone.

Jayne supports people facing life transitions such as midlife crises, pregnancy and childbirth, and questions about sexuality or life purpose. She encourages small experiments between sessions to test new ways of relating and self-care. The tone is respectful, non-judgemental and paced to each person's needs.

Therapy can be arranged as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text messaging. Jayne accepts international clients and works in English. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first appointment.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques often used in this kind of work include brief problem-solving strategies and attachment-focused exploration. Problem-solving helps break a worry or stressor into small steps and creates clear actions to try between sessions, which can reduce overwhelm. Attachment-focused exploration looks at patterns in relationships and how past experiences shape current fears and communication, useful for relationship strain, abandonment concerns and caregiving stress.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods that fit your situation, and adjust based on what helps most. That shared process makes it easier to find practical ways forward rather than relying on a single method from the start.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is good for a full conversation and visual cues, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging allows flexible, ongoing contact between appointments. These formats make therapy more accessible and easier to fit around work, childcare and travel, while keeping the focus on progress and practical coping skills.
