Therapeutic approaches and online care with Jane Williams

Jane Williams uses several evidence-informed approaches adapted for online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then focus on actions that align with what matters most. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, empathetic relationship that supports the client in exploring their own solutions and strengthening self-understanding. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) examines patterns of thought and behavior and teaches practical skills to reduce distress and build coping strategies; it is often helpful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Jane partners with each person to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative exploration can include trying techniques from different approaches and adjusting plans as progress unfolds.

Online sessions can take place via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals from home, work, or other locations, and support continuity of care when in-person visits are not feasible.
