About Jane
Her approach starts with listening. Jane treats each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. She works together with clients to shape conversations and plans that match their needs and goals. Sessions move at a pace the client finds comfortable.
Over three decades she has helped people facing chemical dependency, bipolar and other mood disorders, panic and post-traumatic stress, and social anxiety. She also supports those dealing with divorce, family problems, guilt, and isolation. Intellectual disability is listed among her focus areas and she takes that into account when planning care.
Jane draws on several evidence-informed approaches to guide her work. She uses client-centered methods to follow the person's lead, cognitive behavioral techniques to address thoughts and behaviors, dialectical skills for managing strong emotions, and trauma-focused strategies when past events are central. She also brings solution-focused methods to set short-term, practical goals.
Clients can expect straightforward conversation and concrete tools to try between meetings. Jane invites people who are ready to make a change to start by sharing their concerns and working toward realistic steps forward.

Step 3
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding the person and following their pace. Online sessions using this approach let clients lead the topics while the therapist reflects and clarifies to support choice and direction.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) works on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors. In remote sessions CBT often includes concrete exercises and homework that clients can try between meetings to track progress and notice changes.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. When DBT techniques are used in online work, the therapist and client practice specific coping skills and plan how to use them in day-to-day situations.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Jane will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and recommend methods that feel like a good fit. That collaboration helps shape a plan that stays practical and realistic.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, shorten travel time, or allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find remote sessions helpful for keeping momentum between appointments and practicing skills in real life.
