Counsellor & Coach in Grove, near Wantage — About Jayne
Jayne’s path to counselling runs through sixteen years of working directly with young people in organisational settings — a career that gave her a grounded, experienced understanding of what young people actually face, and what kind of support genuinely makes a difference. That background, combined with formal qualifications at both MA and Foundation Degree level in youth and community work, gives her young people practice a depth that is unusual in private counselling.
Jayne is a qualified Person-Centred counsellor and coach based in Grove, near Wantage, Oxfordshire, offering face-to-face sessions locally and online and telephone counselling across the UK. She holds a Diploma in Person Centred Counselling (Level 4), a Masters in Youth and Community Studies (JNC), and a Foundation Degree in Working with Young People and Young People’s Services. She is a Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP). Her CPD includes training in CBT and Mindfulness (both informing her practice), the Freedom Programme, and Suicide Counsellor and Trainer training — the latter reflecting her preparedness to understand and recognise risk, even where this falls outside Hope Therapy’s service offer. Counsellor near Wantage Oxfordshire. Person-Centred counsellor Grove.
Background & Experience
Before and alongside her counselling practice, Jayne spent over sixteen years working in organisational settings supporting young people — gaining direct, sustained experience with the emotional, psychological, and social challenges that young people face in a wide range of contexts. Her MA in Youth and Community Studies (JNC) and Foundation Degree in Working with Young People reflect a formal academic commitment to this field that goes well beyond the general counselling training most practitioners hold. She has experience offering both one-to-one and group support, and has worked with young people whose mental health, family circumstances, and other risk factors have created complex needs.
Her Freedom Programme training informs her specialist work with domestic violence and abuse — the Freedom Programme is a nationally recognised programme for survivors of domestic abuse, and its frameworks inform her understanding of the patterns and dynamics of abusive relationships alongside her direct clinical experience. She maintains regular professional supervision and is committed to ongoing professional development in line with BACP standards.
Young People (14+) — Counselling and Support
Jayne’s young people practice is backed by sixteen years of direct organisational experience and qualifications at MA and Foundation Degree level — giving her work with young people a grounding that most counsellors in private practice cannot offer. She works with young people aged 14 and over on a wide range of presentations including anxiety, depression, bereavement, anger, ADHD, family difficulties, bullying, relationship challenges, and questions of identity and belonging.
She has experience supporting young people in educational settings and understands the particular pressures of school, sixth form, and early adult life — academically, socially, and emotionally.

Coaching
