A Little More About Me…
My name is Jane Hanson, I am based in Nettleham, Lincoln, and I am a level 5 counsellor having been awarded the:
ADVANCED DIPLOMA IN COUNSELLING SKILLS AND THEORY (LEVEL 5), WITH DISTINCTION.
I am trained in the person-centred approach to counselling combined with the knowledge and ability to apply other therapeutic tools to meet each client’s differing needs.
For example, I’m trained in Compassion Focused Therapy (a directive, mindful, CBT. – cognitive behavioural approach), developed by Professor Paul Gilbert; ACT therapy for anxiety and depression (a directive, mindful, behavioural approach) and qualified to practice “the rewind technique” for clients with P.T.S.D. – post-traumatic stress disorder.
I am an Associate Member of the I.S.P. C. (International Society for Professional Counsellors), an organisational member of B.A.C.P.
I have significant experience working as a volunteer in the charitable sector and the private sector. As a counsellor working for St. Barnabas Hospice, Lincoln, I see clients experiencing grief and loss, health-related issues and terminal illness. As a counsellor working in the private sector, including Supporting Minds, Lincoln, I have also worked with issues such as anxiety and depression, past trauma, family and relationship problems, carer support, low self-esteem, separation and divorce.

“I have had Jane as my counsellor for the last few months, I have found her way of counselling very helpful. She has a magnificent way of helping you to see things that you hadn’t noticed before. I had counselling due to training to be a counsellor myself, I wanted to make sure I had no unresolved issues, Jane helped me to see that we all have issues, its how we deal with them that makes the difference. I would highly recommend.”
