Title
Jane Haynes

Jane works from the premise that psychotherapy needs to be a dialogue between two equals. She believes that the chemistry between therapist and client is an essential ingredient in the healing process, emphasizing that therapy is a confidential space where people can drop their masks and express thoughts and experiences that may have been unspeakable or too difficult to share. Drawing from her training as a Jungian Psychoanalyst, Jane regards the nocturnal language of dreams—both those we remember and those that elude us—as a royal highway to the unconscious.
With a background as an actor at the Royal Court Theatre, Jane’s journey into psychotherapy began after reading The Divided Self, which led her to leave the theatre and work with R.D. Laing. She trained as a Jungian Psychoanalyst and holds a certificate in student counselling. Jane's work extends beyond individual therapy; she has contributed to the development of psychoanalytic curricula at the Eastern European Institute for Psychoanalysis in St Petersburg, familiarizing herself with different cultural approaches to psychotherapy.
In her practice, Jane specializes in a wide range of areas, including relationship and identity issues, sexual diversity, existential angst, depression, and postnatal depression. She also works with issues related to menopause and women’s health, dream analysis, and the process of individuation through Jungian archetypes and the collective unconscious. Additionally, Jane offers mentoring consultations to explore creativity and address writer's block.
Jane has published several books and articles, including Who is it that can tell me who I am?, which was shortlisted for the PEN Memoir Prize. She frequently contributes to media outlets such as Vogue, Psychologies Today, and The London Magazine. Currently she is a regular contributor to KULTURA Magazine. With a passion for the work of Marcel Proust, youth culture, and the intersection of psychology and creativity, Jane continues to explore the complexities of human experience through her unique therapeutic approach.
