Jana Ogg, BACP

Jana Ogg is a person-centred counsellor registered with the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy). She works with people who are facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief, low self-esteem, and the practical and emotional challenges that come with major life changes.

Her practice embraces a wide range of presenting issues, including neurodiversity, confidence and self-worth concerns, loss and coping with grief, depression, addiction, matters relating to sexuality and gender, disability, homelessness, and relationship breakdown. Jana also has enhanced experience supporting people after the loss of a child and in coming to terms with pregnancy.

Jana approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, shaping the therapeutic experience around the individual rather than a one-size-fits-all model. She emphasizes collaboration, helping clients identify priorities and develop coping strategies that suit their circumstances and goals. Taking the first step toward a more fulfilled and happier life can be difficult, and Jana aims to provide steady, empathetic support throughout that process.

Person-centred support and evidence-based techniques online

Jana practises person-centred counselling, which focuses on creating an empathetic, non-judgemental space where the client’s own strengths and goals guide the work. This approach helps people explore self-esteem, relationships, grief, and personal values while building confidence to make changes.

Alongside that person-centred foundation, Jana uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to the individual. These practical strategies aim to reduce stress and anxiety, support coping through life transitions, and provide tools to manage difficult emotions and interpersonal challenges. Techniques are adapted to each person’s needs rather than applied uniformly.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Jana works collaboratively with clients to identify what feels most helpful. Together they assess needs, priorities, and preferences, then adjust methods as progress is made.

Online therapy with Jana is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. These options increase accessibility and flexibility, allowing clients to engage from home or wherever is most convenient while maintaining a consistent therapeutic relationship with a licensed professional.
