Jane Fortune

Jane Fortune is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 20 years of experience. She practices in South Carolina and aims to make reaching out feel straightforward and respectful. Jane writes that asking for help is a practical step when life feels heavy. She began her career working directly with families, couples, and individuals in office settings and online, and has spent the last 13 years in private practice. That mix of community work and private practice shapes how she approaches sessions today. Jane also mentions long personal experience as a spouse, parent, and grandparent, and says those life roles inform her perspective. In sessions she focuses on concrete problems like stress, anxiety, sleep struggles, anger, depression, and relationship concerns. She also addresses grief, addiction, parenting strain, career questions, chronic illness, and other life transitions. Jane lists additional interests such as attachment issues, blended family concerns, and caregiver stress. Her work draws on several established approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. These methods guide practical conversations and exercises rather than abstract theory. Jane emphasizes collaboration and meeting people where they are. She aims to listen first, then help set manageable goals and steps. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking.

Therapeutic approaches and working online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that match their values. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like worry, low mood, and sleep disruption. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on emotions and attachment needs to improve close relationships and intimacy. Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with clients about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. They will try methods that match the person's situation and adjust what they do as progress is made. The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, cut travel time, or use shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also allow people to schedule sessions around work, caregiving, or health needs. Discussing practical details when you first connect will clarify how sessions will be arranged and what to expect.
