About Jane

Jane Meyers is an LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) with 23 years of experience based in New York. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, grief, codependency concerns, and related issues. Jane draws on long experience supporting people through life changes and difficult events.

She favors helping people find their own answers while offering practical tools. Sessions often include clear skills from cognitive and behavioral approaches to manage upsetting thoughts and reactions. She also uses emotion-focused ideas to look at relationship patterns and attachment concerns.

Jane’s background includes work in community and residential settings, crisis counseling, and behavioral health supervision focused on mobile services. That range informs how she adapts methods for different challenges and stages of life. She trained at Marywood University for her Master of Social Work and has worked as a social worker since 2001.

In sessions she aims for straightforward conversations about what isn’t working and what might change. That can mean practicing boundary-setting, pacing steps to manage anxiety, or trying new ways of responding in relationships. Jane has worked with people who face long-term mental health conditions as well as those dealing with short-term, urgent problems.

She offers telecounseling options and has run private practice work alongside other roles to broaden her experience. People who prefer a practical, reflective approach may find her way of working useful when they want clear skills and an emphasis on personal insight.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Jane commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques in her work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety and low mood. DBT supplies clear skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and practicing interpersonal boundaries.

She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy ideas, which center the person's own goals and experience and support drawing out personal insights. Choosing the best mix of approaches is a shared process; she will talk with each person about what feels most useful and adjust methods as goals evolve.

Confirm current session formats before booking since specific online options are not listed here. Online work can make regular check-ins easier to fit into a week, allow shorter focused sessions when needed, and let people use techniques from their everyday environment. The therapist will also adapt exercises so they work over telecounseling and help clients practice skills between sessions.
