She also supports people dealing with codependency, guilt and shame, and the ripple effects of family of origin problems. Her practice includes attention to LGBT concerns, veterans and armed forces issues, postpartum depression, panic attacks, and post-traumatic stress. Jane pays attention to how mood disorders, isolation, jealousy, and infidelity can affect routines and relationships.

Jane shapes the pace and focus to what each person needs, whether that means short-term coping skills or longer work on deeper patterns. Starting therapy is acknowledged as a brave step and she emphasizes collaboration.
The initial meetings focus on identifying goals and building a plan that fits the client's life.
Approaches that help with anxiety and relationship stress
Jane draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing unhelpful patterns and building coping skills. One common approach helps people learn practical strategies to manage anxiety and panic symptoms, such as breathing and grounding practices and skills to interrupt worry cycles. This kind of work is aimed at reducing overwhelming feelings and improving day-to-day functioning.Another approach centers on understanding relationship patterns and family of origin issues. That work looks at how past relationships shape current reactions and helps people try new ways of relating. It can be useful for addressing codependency, jealousy, infidelity fallout, and long-standing conflict patterns.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. Jane will talk with each person about goals, try techniques that fit their needs, and adjust the plan as progress is made. The focus is on practical changes the client feels comfortable with and that fit their life.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversation and visual connection, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text can support brief check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to schedule care around work, family, or other commitments.
