About Jane
Jane Klingberg is a licensed counselor who draws on 27 years of practice to help people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma, low self-esteem, and depression. She brings straightforward, practical care and listens before suggesting next steps. Sessions focus on everyday tools people can use between meetings.
Her approach blends several evidence-informed methods to match each person's needs. That can mean building new thinking patterns with cognitive behavioral work, practicing present-moment awareness and values-based action through Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or using client-centered listening to create space for difficult feelings.
Background and approach
Jane aims to make therapy concrete and doable. People often come for help with grief, abandonment, communication problems, or life transitions. She also supports those facing chronic pain, caregiver stress, aging concerns, and issues tied to military life.
The work often addresses guilt, shame, and relationships with others and the self. Sessions include practical exercises, skill-building, and conversations about how to apply changes in daily life. Jane emphasizes small, sustainable steps so progress feels realistic.
She adapts methods to match what each person prefers and what fits their situation. Jane holds LCPC and LPC credentials and practices in Wisconsin. She offers sessions in English and uses a mix of phone and online formats to reach people who need flexible options.
Therapeutic approaches for online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then take actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. It often suits people dealing with anxiety, mood difficulties, and stress. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes empathic listening and helps people feel heard so they can find their own solutions and build self-trust.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That may mean combining elements from different approaches and adjusting the plan as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging offer brief check-ins, flexible scheduling, and a way to continue skill practice between full sessions. These options aim to make therapy more accessible and to fit support into busy lives.
