I am a credentialed mental health professional based in the United Kingdom with over 17 years of experience supporting individuals through life’s challenges. My areas of expertise include stress, anxiety, grief and loss, motivation, self-esteem, confidence, career difficulties, and navigating major life changes.
I work from a foundation of respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I believe in the power of a collaborative, person-centred approach. I am also trained in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), which I integrate into my work to help clients develop practical strategies for understanding and reshaping unhelpful thoughts, behaviours, and patterns.
Every individual is unique, and I tailor each session and treatment plan to meet your specific needs and goals. Taking the first step toward therapy takes courage, and I want to acknowledge the strength it takes to begin. I’m here to support you on your journey toward greater clarity, resilience, and well-being.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Melissa Jane. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
I have been working with Melissa now for many months. It is clear that Melissa has many years of experience and is able to identify exactly how to help myself and how to better understand my emotions, and where my behaviors, thoughts and feelings stem from. She is kind, intelligent, and very present. You can tell that she genuinely loves her job and helping others. She is amazing at guiding others to shift their perspectives to positively better themselves.

only three sessions in and I am already noticing a big difference in myself!

Melissa Jane is a patient, supportive, creative, and human therapist who genuinely cares deeply. She is extremely knowledgeable and, in my case has been able to get the crux of everything rather quickly! I'm thoroughly enjoying my sessions and I am discovering elements of myself that I hadn't aligned with in what feels like a lifetime. Fabulous therapist!
