Jane Barclay, Therapeutic Counselling & Psychotherapy Exeter

Counselling & Psychotherapeutic Counselling via video calls for individuals. I have worked in private practice since qualifying in 2000.

Also workshops for counsellors & psychotherapists to raise awareness about the experience of Boarding School - entitled 'See You in 3 Weeks'. I work with individuals and couples to explore any matter that causes distress, to find the path to resolution.

Exactly- the relationship itself IS the therapy, a someone to dare risk trusting with not only telling but with being vulnerable, and feeling exposed, that comes in the telling.
If it's shame that sends, then keeps, painful and terrifying experiences secret (hidden for safety's sake), then shame is bound to accompany bringing that secret into the light, to be told, deshamed, grieved over - all the while held by the increasingly trusted other person.
How else could anyone, I, reopen my heart? To myself, to others?

🌿✨ One Week to Go! ✨🌿

In just one week, the Climate Consciousness Summit 2025 begins — a Living Field for Planetary Renewal unfolding from 14–20 November, in conjunction with COP30.

Together, we will enter a space of deep inquiry and reconnection — exploring how healing our nervous systems and healing the biosphere of the Earth are one and the same process.

Across seven transformative days, visionary speakers, Indigenous elders, scientists, artists, and community leaders will guide us in witnessing our collective grief, remembering our interdependence, and reimagining the future through courage and collaboration.

✨ Featuring speakers such as Thomas Hübl, Bayo Akomolafe, Francis Weller, Britt Wray and many more… ✨

💫 Join thousands of participants from around the world as we step into this shared field of renewal, resilience, and possibility.

🌍 The journey begins soon — are you with us?

As if for the first time each time, I'm awed by the power of a gathering of human heart-energy combined with heart-energy of 'home', bringing healing to the sorest places in my soul. By healing, I mean feeling wrapped up and held

I've just been shown a vital truth of self-nurturing before/during nurturing others

“Love is the only sane and satisfactory answer to the problem of human existence.” – Erich Fromm
For Fromm, love is the cure for the isolation and emptiness of modern life. It reconnects us with others, offering meaning, sanity, and wholeness in a fragmented world. Without love, existence remains hollow and disconnected.

Our Story

I qualified in 2000 as a Therapeutic Counsellor. In 2003, I also trained in Trauma Therapy with Babette Rothschild. In 2011 I trained with Nick Duffell and Joy Shaverian in the Boarding School Experience. and in 2012 I also became a co-director of Boarding Concern - which is now reformed as BoardingSchoolSurvivors-Support.

I am accredited with AHPP, the Association of Humanistic Psychology Practitioners, and registered with UKCP as a Psychotherapeutic Counsellor.

In my private practice I work with individuals and couples to explore any matter that causes distress, to help raise into awareness whatever is hidden, to resolve whatever disturbs and distresses, discovering a path towards integration and optimum health.

TRANSITION - I am currently in the process of changing location, a time of not-fully-knowing both when, and how this will effect my work with clients. For the time being, I continue at Cathedral Close in Exeter, whilst looking to work via Skype once I have moved - some time around February/March possibly. I have some experience of maintaining therapeutic relationships with Skype contact, and shall explore deeply what this form of work means in terms of attachment, separation and connection.
