About Jane
Jane Klingberg is a licensed counselor who focuses on practical ways to relieve stress and anxiety. She brings 27 years of experience to sessions and helps people facing depression, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, and low self-esteem. Her approach aims to make changes feel manageable one step at a time.
In the first meetings she invites people to tell their story and name what matters most to them. She listens without judgment and then offers tools people can try between sessions.
Background and approach
These include breathing and mindfulness practices, skills for handling strong emotions, and ways to reframe stressful thinking. Her work draws from cognitive behavioral ideas and acceptance-based methods that encourage action toward valued goals. She also uses client-centered skills to keep conversations focused on each person’s priorities.
When emotional overwhelm shows up, she taps DBT strategies to help regulate mood and improve day-to-day functioning. Jane has helped people adapt to big life changes, cope with chronic pain or illness, and navigate grief, separation, or caregiver strain. She also supports those working through attachment wounds, abandonment concerns, body image struggles, and feelings of isolation.
Her goal is to help clients find clearer direction and more stable daily routines. Sessions are conversational and practical. Jane works with people to set realistic goals and practice new skills between meetings.
Over time the small changes build into clearer choices and more reliable coping.
How these approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice what matters most and take small actions toward those values. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and uncertainty about life direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches practical exercises to reduce worry and improve mood. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving communication when stress feels overwhelming.Choosing the right approach is often a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try different techniques, and adjust methods as needed. Together they decide which strategies fit the person’s situation and what to practice between sessions.
Online sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone meetings, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is helpful for in-depth conversations and skills practice, while phone sessions can be a simpler check-in or work better with limited bandwidth. Live chat and messaging let people send short updates, ask quick questions, or do brief exercises between meetings. These options aim to make it easier to use therapy around work, caregiving, or health limitations.
