About Jane

Jane Fortune is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in South Carolina with 20 years of experience. She invites people to reach out when life feels overwhelming and believes asking for help is a sensible first step. Jane draws on long experience in private practice and earlier work in community settings to guide conversations that matter.

Her background includes many years supporting individuals and couples through common struggles like anxiety, depression, grief, and stress. She also addresses relationship concerns, intimacy issues, parenting strains, addiction-related problems, and the complex demands of caregiving. Aging and geriatric issues appear among her focus areas for people facing life transitions later in life.

Jane uses a mix of therapy styles tailored to each person. She often incorporates cognitive behavioral strategies to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values and take action, and attachment-focused work to strengthen connection and understanding. Sessions aim to be practical, direct, and grounded in everyday life.

Her professional path includes many years in private practice plus earlier roles working with families, couples, and individuals in office and online settings. Jane also brings personal experience as a long-term spouse, parent, and grandparent, which she says informs her work with everyday life challenges.

People who choose Jane can expect a collaborative approach where therapist and client make a plan together. To begin, visitors are asked to use the site's Start Therapy process to match and schedule according to availability.

How approach guides online therapy

Jane commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression, and it can be useful for sleep problems, anger, and coping skills. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at relationship patterns and how early bonds influence current connections, which can help with intimacy concerns, family conflict, and caregiver stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then adapt methods over time. That collaborative process helps people try practical tools and see what fits their life and needs.

If you are considering online options, confirm current session formats before booking since specific formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when that works better, and remove travel time so people can schedule around work or caregiving duties. Licensed professionals can also use online meetings to continue work started in office settings, making it simpler to maintain momentum when life gets busy.
