Jane Rhea

Jane Rhea is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) who centers client-focused methods in her practice. She uses clear, practical conversation to help people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and challenges related to neurodiversity and disability.

She draws on 11 years of combined personal and professional involvement with disability communities. That background shapes how she talks about barriers, access, and identity. Jane brings attention to work and daily routines as places where change can start.

Her approach blends Client-Centered Therapy with mindfulness and motivational interviewing. Sessions often focus on small, achievable steps toward goals like managing overwhelm, addressing compassion fatigue, or improving self-esteem. She also helps people navigate job-seeking concerns and money or career stress in straightforward ways.

Jane names and works with issues common to LGBT and queer communities, and she describes herself as allied with queer, trans, and non-binary people. She also supports people affected by ADHD, autism and Asperger syndrome, traumatic brain injury, chronic illness, and intellectual disability.

Her practice perspective emphasizes respect for clients’ experiences and priorities. Conversations aim to make sense of what’s happening now and to map practical next steps. People who want a direct, empathetic collaborator may find her style helpful.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy is about listening closely and following the person's lead. In online sessions this means the therapist reflects back what matters to you, helps you prioritize goals, and adapts pacing to how you prefer to work. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce distress and increase focus. Practiced in short exercises, it can help with anxiety, stress, chronic pain, and emotional overwhelm.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will ask about your goals, daily routines, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together you can try different techniques and adjust the plan so it fits your needs and preferences over time.

The profile does not specify which online session formats are offered, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make scheduling easier, help fit sessions around employment or caregiving, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also reduce travel time and let therapeutic work continue across geographic distances. Licensed professionals will tailor session length and focus so therapy fits your life and goals.
