Jane Robbins, LCSW

Jane Robbins is an LCSW with 25 years of clinical experience in North Carolina. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, and major life changes. Jane works with many concerns including trauma, relationship strain, sleep and eating problems, caregiver stress, and identity questions. She writes in a straightforward way and focuses on what will make daily life easier. Jane trained in psychology and social work, and her career has included work with people across the lifespan. She has supported people through hospice and end-of-life issues, severe mental health challenges, and recovery after abuse. That background informs a practical, calm approach to difficult situations. In sessions she focuses first on building trust and a real working relationship. She adapts methods to fit each person rather than asking people to fit her style. That means choices about pacing, homework, and focus are made together. Her work draws on several counseling methods. She uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and behavior. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas can help people clarify values and take meaningful steps. Client-centered and psychodynamic ideas guide how she listens and attends to patterns from the past. Jane emphasizes collaboration and small, achievable changes. She helps people set goals, practice new skills, and notice progress. If you want straightforward support for coping, decision-making, or recovery, she offers steady guidance and practical strategies.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Jane often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy when working with people online. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps clarify what matters most and encourages small steps toward those values, which can help with anxiety, depression, and coping with change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on spotting and testing unhelpful thoughts and practicing new behaviors, useful for stress, sleep problems, and addictive patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then try methods together and adjust what isn’t helping. This collaborative process helps shape a plan that fits real life and what the client wants to change.
