About Sarah

Sarah Janes is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) and Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who has practiced in New Mexico for 13 years.

Background and approach

She draws on a mix of evidence-informed approaches to address concerns such as depression, anxiety, stress, parenting challenges, ADHD, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, anger, family difficulties, and coping with life changes. Her background includes integrating mindfulness-based stress reduction and art therapy techniques when appropriate to complement talk-based work.

Her style is warm, nonjudgmental, and collaborative, focusing on helping clients gain insight and feel empowered to pursue meaningful change. Sessions are tailored to each person's needs, with treatment plans that blend cognitive-behavioral strategies, client-centered listening, and solution-focused goal-setting.

Sarah emphasizes practical skills alongside emotional processing so clients can apply new tools between sessions. Sarah welcomes people ready to work toward clearer goals and better day-to-day functioning.

She communicates in English and provides several online session formats to accommodate different schedules and preferences, adapting therapeutic methods to fit each client's situation and priorities.

Approaches that inform online care and practical support

Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathetic listening and meeting each person where they are; it helps people feel heard and supports exploration of personal values and goals in a collaborative way. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and developing practical skills and behavioral changes to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression. Solution-focused therapy zeroes in on concrete goals and small, achievable steps so clients can notice progress and build momentum.

Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist works together with each client to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative stance helps tailor interventions and adjust course as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to schedule regular meetings, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access support from home. These options can accommodate different communication styles and logistical needs while allowing licensed professionals to deliver structured interventions and goal-focused work.
