Psychotherapist and Supervisor

PROVIDING PSYCHOTHERAPY, COACHING AND SUPERVISION IN LONDON

About Me

My name is Jane Taylor Rahman. I am a BACP registered psychotherapist with an MA in Counselling and Psychotherapy.

My experience

I have over 17 years of experience delivering mental health projects and psychotherapy both in the UK and internationally.

My counselling background includes a decade of providing trauma-focused individual and group therapy for refugees living with PTSD. During this time, I spent four years leading and co-creating a therapeutic programme with women who had been trafficked. This work continues to inform my therapeutic approach today.

Following this, I founded a private practice in Shoreditch, where I worked with CEOs, social entrepreneurs, and other professionals. I blended CBT and mindfulness-based therapies to support clients in managing stress, anxiety, burnout and navigating major life changes.

Beyond THE therapy ROOm

Alongside my clinical work, I’ve led mental health research and service design projects for organisations such as the UK Department of Health, the World Health Organisation (WHO), and PSI Cambodia.

Recently, as both a therapist and parent, I’ve become increasingly aware of the emotional toll climate change is having on children and young people. In response, I launched Reasons to be Hopeful a digital platform that transforms eco-anxiety into eco-literacy by sharing youth-friendly, solution-focused climate stories

Through this platform, I’ve co-led an initiative amplifying youth climate perspectives at the UN Summit of the Future. I’m also assisting Imperial College London’s Climate Cares Centre facilitate focus groups with students and educators exploring how climate change education can be delivered in ways that support mental wellbeing.

In addition, I serve as a media spokesperson on climate and mental health for the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), and I’m a member of the Trauma and Resource Committee of the Climate Minds Coalition.

A unifying theme across my work is applying both evidence-based and creative solutions to complex challenges and empowering others to do the same.

How I Work

Therapy as a first step

Choosing to go to therapy is a big step, and also the first one towards a more confident, empowered version of yourself.

I offer a confidential, supportive space where you can consciously reflect on your life challenges and your reactions to them.

My approach

I draw on a range of psychotherapeutic and coaching models, along with evidence-based tools from psychology, wellbeing, and neuroscience.

I also incorporate Complexity and Systems Thinking to explore how broader systems shape your circumstances and influence your decisions.

In addition, I use methods from Futures and Foresight to bring structured thinking about your future to help transform your present.

What to expect

Through structured, collaborative conversations, we’ll work proactively on the challenges you’re facing.

We’ll meet them all without judgement and with an open mind for exploration and change.

The goal is to help you move through the challenges you’re facing and come out the other side feeling more in control—equipped with the tools and insight to navigate your life with greater clarity and ease.
