People who choose her often want straightforward guidance and a respectful space to try new strategies. Jane aims to help each person set realistic goals and track progress. She practices in Massachusetts and conducts sessions in English.
How Jane uses ACT, CBT, and client-centered work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on values and small actions that move life in a meaningful direction and can be useful for stress, anxiety, and sleep routines.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect mood and sleep. It involves simple experiments and behavior changes, like adjusting bedtime habits or testing unhelpful beliefs about sleep and worry.
Client-Centered Therapy gives people space to tell their story and guide the work. The therapist follows the person’s pace, reflecting concerns and helping identify strengths to build on.
Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist will work with the client to test what helps, adjusting methods to match goals and day-to-day life. Finding the right mix of strategies often happens over a few sessions.
