About Jana
Jana Wilson is an LPCC practicing in Kentucky who uses a client-centered approach to help people handle stress, anxiety, grief, and relationship strain. She draws on practical tools to address money and financial issues alongside other life stresses. Her style is warm and interactive and aimed at helping people take small, manageable steps forward.

Jana holds the LPCC credential and has three years of post-licensure experience supporting adults with a range of concerns. Sessions focus on clear goals and honest conversation rather than labels.
Jana uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and build useful coping skills. She also incorporates Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotional regulation and Client-Centered Therapy to keep the work grounded in each person’s values and choices. Mindfulness practices are added when helpful for stress and sleep issues.
Her background includes work with people facing trauma, addiction, ADHD, and depression, and she lists additional focus areas such as caregiver stress, commitment and control issues, blended family problems, and midlife concerns. Money and financial issues are included among the topics she addresses in session.
When working together, Jana aims to tailor conversations and plans to what each person needs right now. She emphasizes practical steps and collaborative decision-making so clients can try changes that fit their daily life.
How Jana’s Approaches Translate to Online Work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and values and creates space for honest talk and choice. Online sessions using this approach tend to center the client’s priorities and pace.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers clear strategies to change unhelpful patterns. Delivered online, CBT often includes worksheets, behavioral experiments, and step-by-step skill practice that fit into daily routines.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides concrete skills for managing strong emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. In remote sessions, DBT skills can be taught, practiced, and reviewed so people can use them between meetings.
Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and how they like to work, then try approaches that match those needs. Adjustments are made over time based on what is helpful.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, reduce commute time, and allow a quicker check-in during a break. Some formats also make it simpler to use written worksheets or screen-sharing for skill practice. Ask about available session options when scheduling to match the practical needs of everyday life.
