About Jane
Jane Meyers is an LCSW with 23 years of experience based in New York. She focuses on worries like stress, anxiety, depression, sleep problems, grief, relationship difficulties, and challenges related to addiction and self-esteem. She also supports people dealing with parenting strain, eating concerns, bipolar mood issues, and trauma and abuse.
Her style centers on helping people find answers inside themselves while offering practical tools. Sessions combine listening with step-by-step strategies drawn from cognitive and behavioral approaches, emotion-focused work, and mindfulness. Jane uses language that is direct and easy to follow so people can try ideas between sessions.
Jane trained for many years in social work and holds a Master of Social Work degree. She has worked in a range of settings including mobile behavioral health, residential programs, crisis counseling, and geriatric services. That background informs how she plans realistic steps for everyday life.
When sleep is a concern she looks at routines, stress, and habits that affect rest. She pairs calming, skills-based techniques with conversations about how daily demands and emotions get in the way of good sleep. The goal is to make small changes that add up over time.
People who reach out can expect a collaborative, straightforward approach. Jane emphasizes practical tools, gentle challenge, and checking progress together so goals stay clear and manageable.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy is about listening closely and letting people guide the focus of sessions; it helps when someone needs understanding and support to find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and sleep habits. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clear interpersonal skills, which can help with strong emotions and relationship stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jane will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust plans as progress is tracked.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Some formats are more useful for skills practice while others suit longer conversations, so discussing what will work practically is part of the first meetings.
