About Jane

Jane Williams is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Massachusetts with 39 years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, anger, and major life changes. Her tone is straightforward and encouraging, aimed at someone who may be nervous about taking the first step.

Her style is practical and respectful. She treats each person as the expert on their own story and looks for strengths to build on.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on clear goals and realistic steps toward change. Jane draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centered work to help people accept difficult feelings while moving toward what matters.

Mindfulness practices and motivational interviewing show up when they fit the person’s goals. The aim is to create a workable plan rather than only talking about problems. Jane has supported people with addiction, grief, relationship strain, parenting stress, eating and sleeping issues, ADHD, and career concerns.

She also works with more specific struggles such as attachment, caregiver stress, and body image problems. Her long experience means she has seen many ways problems show up and practical ways to address them. To start, she encourages people to name a small first goal and try one change between sessions.

The work is collaborative and paced to match what someone can manage in daily life.

Approaches Jane lists

Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each therapist names and does not check training records.

Practical approaches you can use online

Jane blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in ways that are easy to use over video or text. CBT helps people notice patterns of thought and try small behavior experiments to reduce anxiety or anger. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on identifying values and taking actions that matter, even when strong feelings are present.

She takes a collaborative approach to choosing methods. During early sessions the therapist and client will talk through goals, try a few ideas, and pick what feels most useful. Finding the right mix is part of the work, and adjustments are made based on what helps the person move forward.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different needs. Video is useful for a full face-to-face conversation while phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging can fit short check-ins, journaling between sessions, or steady support when schedules are tight. These options make it easier to keep therapy steady around work, family, and daily life.
