Professional statement

Jane offers insight and empathy through the more difficult aspects of life. She works with clients who are experiencing major life transitions, exploring their sense of self and/or spirituality, reexamining their relational patterns, and are looking to develop a stronger mindfulness practice. She has helped many who suffer from depression, anxiety, loss, grief, trauma, PTSD, codependency, crisis, and chronic illness and pain. Her approach is trauma informed and LGBTQ+ allied.

Once a safe therapeutic container has been established, she will work with you to understand the underlying patterns contributing to your struggles. She curtails her approach to your needs pulling from psychodynamics (looking at how early relational patterns affect our current relationships), Depth psychology (Jungian and post-Jungian theory that values image, dreams and metaphors as pertinent information about your process), and Buddhist psychology (fostering awareness of one’s habitual thoughts and behaviors). Taking what is relevant for you and leaving the rest, Jane will work with you to find your own unique ground and path towards becoming more aligned with your authentic self.

Jane has worked with a wide variety of clientele ranging from adolescents to the elderly. Her training included specializations in queer youth issues, women’s issues, and end-of-life mental health. She offers telehealth session to residents of California, and in-person session in Los Angeles.


Message to clients

I offer a non-judgmental and safe container that is trauma informed so that we can work at your pace. My approach is gentle yet direct, meeting my clients where they are at and offering a helping hand in finding their own path to a life less burdened by struggle and more attuned to their desires. I believe that we are all diamonds in the rough, and by working through what is dulling that gem we can all find our inner brilliance.

As a long term meditator, I offer customized tools for working towards a mindfulness approach to life if desired. I am a certified meditation instructor by Dharma Moon & Tibet House. I also value the imaginal world and symbolism utilized by a Depth Psychological approach. My background as an artist lends itself to working with the creative mind to better understand ourselves and our psychological lives.
