Counselling with Dr Jane Ralls

Dr Jane Ralls is a GP with a special interest in mental health and counselling. She offers thoughtful, non-judgemental support for parents, caregivers and individuals who are struggling, stuck, or simply need time to explore what’s going on beneath the surface.

Postnatal adjustment and identity shifts

Intrusive thoughts or feelings of disconnection

Perinatal/postnatal anxiety and depression

Relationship or communication stress

Grief and loss (including miscarriage or birth trauma)

Ongoing anxiety or low mood

Navigating medical or developmental concerns with your child

Burnout or emotional exhaustion

A GP who gets it

Dr Jane blends medical knowledge with calm, compassionate listening. She offers space to explore your thoughts, identify patterns, and gently move forward with more clarity and support. Because Dr Jane is a GP, she can offer counselling within the context of your whole health – including your physical wellbeing, medications, hormonal shifts, sleep, and lifestyle.

These are longer appointments, set at a slower pace. There’s no rush, no list of problems to solve, and no need to justify why you’re there. You don’t need a diagnosis. You don’t need to “have it all together”. Just come as you are.
