About Jane

Jane Meyers is an LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) licensed in New York with 23 years of practice. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, depression, addictions, grief, parenting strain, eating and sleeping problems, and family-of-origin issues. She also supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, bipolar mood concerns, anger, and self-esteem difficulties.

She uses straightforward, person-focused sessions that encourage clients to find answers that fit their lives. Conversations often center on current problems and practical steps. Techniques are drawn from cognitive-behavioral ideas and skills-based strategies to help manage thoughts, emotions, and behavior.

Jane also integrates emotion-focused work and dialectical skills when people need help with intense feelings or relationship patterns. She combines these methods with a broader view of life stages and attachment issues when family history affects present choices. Sessions look at how old roles and expectations from the family of origin still shape daily life.

Her background includes work across many settings, including crisis counseling, geriatric care, residential programs, and mobile behavioral health for people with serious mental illness. She earned a Master of Social Work from Marywood University and has maintained clinical practice while supervising behavioral health services.

Jane offers services in English and accepts international clients. Practical matters such as scheduling and the subscription-based fee system are handled through the platform's intake flow. Prospective clients complete a short questionnaire to match and then arrange a first session.

Online work using CBT, DBT, and emotion-focused methods

Jane uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT sessions often focus on practical exercises, thought records, and behavior experiments that can reduce anxiety and depression.

She also brings in Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improved interpersonal effectiveness. These skills can help when feelings become overwhelming or when communication breaks down in relationships.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy is used to look at how feelings shape interactions and attachment patterns. This approach helps people understand and shift long-standing ways of relating that often come from family of origin experiences.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jane will discuss options with each person and adapt methods based on goals, preferences, and what shows up in early sessions. That collaborative decision helps focus sessions on concrete changes.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a weekday break, reduce travel time, or let someone choose a quieter setting for a focused conversation. Licensed professionals can use video, phone, or messaging formats depending on what they offer, so check the available formats when you arrange the first appointment.
