Therapeutic approaches for online support

Jane integrates client-centered work, emotionally-focused techniques, and mindfulness practices into online sessions to meet a range of needs. Client-centered therapy emphasizes a respectful, non-directive stance where the therapist offers empathy and acceptance so clients can explore feelings and discover their own solutions - it is often helpful for issues like low self-esteem, stress, and relationship concerns.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on understanding and reshaping patterns in close relationships by identifying emotions and improving emotional connection - it can be useful for couples work and attachment-related struggles. Mindfulness therapy teaches practical ways to observe thoughts and bodily sensations with curiosity, which can reduce reactivity and support coping with anxiety, depression, and persistent stress.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jane works with each person to identify which methods fit their goals, preferences, and situation, adjusting the focus over time as needs change.

Online therapy with Jane is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, providing flexibility to fit different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access support from home or other convenient locations and to continue therapeutic work even when in-person sessions are not possible.
