With a wealth of experience, Jane specializes in aiding individuals during planned and unexpected life transitions, managing stress and anxiety, processing grief and loss, overcoming past trauma, building self-esteem, improving communication skills, strengthening relationships, and maintaining sobriety.

In collaborative sessions tailored to individual needs, she helps clarify personal goals and establish a supportive environment for transformation. Together with Jane, clients embark on their path to renewed self-discovery and empowerment.
