She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting challenges, grief, and major life changes.

She uses a blend of approaches to match each person's needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and client-centered methods are common tools she draws on.
How Jane works
Mindfulness and motivational interviewing are added when someone needs help shifting habits or building motivation. In sessions she focuses on clear goals and small experiments. Conversations include identifying unhelpful thoughts, practicing new behaviors, and building on the person’s existing strengths.
She keeps language simple and actions concrete so people can try things between meetings. Jane has supported people with a wide range of concerns over nearly four decades, including ADHD, bipolar disorder, eating and sleeping problems, chronic illness, caregiver stress, and issues around adoption or abandonment. Her work also includes body image, codependency, communication and control issues.
People connect with her by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling sessions. Therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Subscriptions are used for sessions and can be canceled at any time.

Online support options
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Jane often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot patterns in thoughts and actions and then try small behavior changes. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and anger because it focuses on practical steps and measurable progress.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people notice what matters to them and take value-driven actions even when difficult feelings are present. ACT can be helpful for stress, chronic pain, and life transitions where acceptance and forward movement are both needed.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then choose methods together. That collaborative process can include mixing CBT, ACT, client-centered listening, mindfulness exercises, and motivational interviewing as needed.
Online therapy gives flexibility for different days and routines. Video calls let people have a more face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be used for shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging helps keep momentum between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and try methods in real time.
