About Jane

Jane Ayers is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, depression, trauma, and phobias. She draws on two decades of clinical experience to support practical changes and steadier day-to-day living. Her work emphasizes gentle collaboration and clear goals so people feel less overwhelmed by problems that once seemed too big to face.

She begins by listening to each person’s story and identifying what matters most right now.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on immediate coping skills and on understanding how past experiences shape current reactions. Jane uses straightforward tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to build skills people can use between sessions. Attachment-based ideas guide how she looks at relationships and long patterns that affect trust and safety.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, and then move toward values-based action. Client-centered methods keep the pace and priorities in the client’s hands. Jane describes therapy as a partnership.

She helps people set small, achievable steps and checks progress together. Her style is calm, practical, and rooted in respect for each person’s history. She works with issues such as abandonment, attachment concerns, body image, chronic illness, dissociation, and family of origin problems.

People often come for help after a major life change, loss, or when anxiety or addictive behaviors interfere with daily life.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck and then take small actions that match their values; this can be useful for anxiety, phobias, and depression. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns in thoughts and behaviors and swapping in practical strategies that reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at relationship patterns and long-standing ways of relating, which can help when trust, abandonment, or family of origin issues are part of the problem.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods match their goals, needs, and preferences. That decision can change over time as progress is tracked and new challenges appear.

Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let people use visual cues during sessions, phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed, and live chat or text-based messaging supports quick reflections or ongoing prompts between meetings. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, manage appointments from different locations, and try different session styles until the right fit is found.
