About Jane
Jane Collingwood is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who practices in Wisconsin. She draws on a mix of practical therapies to help people manage anxiety, depression, grief, stress, and relationship concerns. Jane uses clear, straightforward language and focuses on what works in daily life.
She brings ten years of experience across home-based care, residential treatment, and outpatient settings. That background shapes a flexible approach that fits different situations. Sessions often focus on concrete steps people can try between meetings.
Background and approach
Jane blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centered work. That means she helps people notice difficult thoughts, practice new skills, and clarify what matters most. The aim is to reduce overwhelm and build habits that feel manageable.
Common topics she addresses include parenting stress, intimacy and communication problems, addiction-related concerns, compassion fatigue, and life transitions. Additional focus areas include attachment issues, chronic illness, blended family challenges, and grief related to end-of-life and loss. Her style is nonjudgmental and direct.
Jane takes time to understand each person and tailors sessions to fit their goals and daily routines. She prefers collaborative work that leaves people with practical tools they can use right away.
Approach-driven online therapy that fits your life
Jane uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and change thinking patterns that keep them stuck. CBT focuses on practical exercises and short-term strategies, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress-related symptoms.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which teaches people to notice difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to values-based actions. ACT can be useful for coping with grief, chronic pain, and ongoing life changes.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. Jane will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then choose or combine methods that suit them. That collaborative planning helps keep sessions relevant and focused on real-world progress.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and skill practice. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Messaging and live chat can suit people who prefer written reflection or need flexible timing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to continue work between appointments.
