About Jane
Jane Meyers helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, grief, and parenting concerns. She also offers support for sleep and eating difficulties, anger, bipolar challenges, and a wide range of family-related concerns. Jane is an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker - based in New York with 23 years of experience.
She works in a straightforward, collaborative way. Sessions focus on finding practical answers that fit each person's life.
Background and approach
Jane draws on tools from client-centered work, cognitive and dialectical approaches, emotionally focused ideas, and existential perspectives to tailor each session. Her background includes long clinical experience and supervisory work in behavioral health. Jane completed a Master of Social Work from Marywood University after beginning college at a local community college and finishing a bachelor's degree through an online state program.
She notes years of practice since 2001 and a variety of clinical settings on her resume. In sessions she aims to help people access their own strengths and make small, manageable changes. She frames therapy as a joint effort where the client’s goals guide the plan.
Practical skills, talk-through problem solving, and attention to how thoughts and feelings connect are common parts of her work. Jane offers multiple online formats and believes teletherapy can reach people who otherwise might not connect with care. She presents herself as someone who learns from each person she meets and who adapts methods to meet real-life needs.
Therapeutic approaches for online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and helping people find their own solutions; it is useful when someone needs space to sort values, feelings, or life decisions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness and can help when emotions feel overwhelming.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and how they respond to different methods. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues and longer discussions. Phone can be easier when bandwidth is low or the client prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins, skills practice, or ongoing support between sessions. These options increase flexibility and make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life.
