Jayne Sinclair, BACP

Jayne Sinclair is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 15 years of professional experience. She practises as an integrative counsellor and combines different therapeutic techniques to meet individual needs. Jayne also holds qualifications in hypnotherapy and has used that approach for many clients over 13 years.

Her work focuses on common everyday struggles. She helps people who are stressed, anxious or low in mood. She also supports people coping with grief, relationship and family difficulties, parenting concerns, eating and body image issues, and the challenges of life transitions.

Jayne draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect present patterns. She uses client-centred ways of working to keep sessions person-led and respectful. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used to address unhelpful thinking and practical problems.

Her practice has included supporting people with abandonment, adoption and foster care matters, attachment issues, blended family dynamics, fertility and fatherhood concerns, and other family-related problems. She has worked with people affected by childhood trauma and common behavioural patterns such as control issues and commitment difficulties.

Jayne aims to work in straightforward, practical ways. Sessions can include creative activities, breathing work, relaxation and guided imagery drawn from hypnotherapy when appropriate. She encourages small steps and clear goals so people can notice change between sessions.

How Jayne’s approaches translate to online counselling

Jayne commonly draws on attachment-based work and cognitive behavioural techniques in her practice. Attachment-based approaches look at how early relationship patterns influence feelings and behaviour today, helping people understand why they react as they do. Cognitive behavioural work focuses on noticing thoughts and testing them, with practical steps to change unhelpful patterns.

She also uses client-centred methods to keep the session focused on the person’s experience. That means the therapist listens closely, follows what matters to the client and adjusts pace and tools to suit them. Choosing the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process, and she will help decide what fits best based on goals and preferences.

If you are considering online therapy, check the current session formats before booking so you know what options are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also support creative exercises, guided breathing and imagery shared in session, alongside conversational work and thought-challenging tasks that suit many of the approaches Jayne uses.
