About Jane

Jane Klingberg is an experienced therapist who uses practical, evidence-informed approaches to help people handle stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles. She holds LCPC and LPC credentials and brings 27 years of clinical work to each session. Jane writes in a straightforward way and focuses on helping people live better lives amid hard circumstances.

She invites people to start by telling their story, both the easier parts and the painful ones. Sessions center on clear goals and concrete tools. Jane combines talk with hands-on coping exercises and stress management strategies so clients can use what they learn between appointments.

Her background includes many years helping people recover from trauma and abuse, and supporting those coping with chronic pain or long-term illness. She also helps people dealing with self-esteem struggles, communication problems, and the fallout of separation or life changes. Jane pays attention to how attachment, abandonment, and forgiveness issues shape relationships and daily choices.

Jane draws on several therapeutic styles to fit each person’s needs. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness to help with difficult feelings, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to change unhelpful thought patterns, and client-centered listening to keep sessions grounded in the person’s priorities. Dialectical Behavior Therapy and existential ideas also inform her work when emotion regulation or meaning questions come up.

People who meet with Jane can expect a calm, practical focus and straightforward tools for coping. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to availability.

How therapy approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce anxiety and depression. Client-centered therapy emphasizes careful listening and a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship that lets people lead the way in sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences in a collaborative way. That may mean mixing tools from different approaches as the work unfolds.

Session formats and scheduling options are not specified here, so confirm current session options before booking. Many people find online work easier to fit into daily life because it can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins around busy days, or make it simpler to attend when health or mobility is a concern. Licensed professionals adapt exercises, mindfulness practices, and CBT tools to an online setting so that progress continues even when meetings happen remotely.
