Jane Fortune, LPC

Jane Fortune is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with twenty years of experience. She offers a steady, practical presence for people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, addictions, or major life changes. Her style is straightforward and calm, focused on helping people take manageable steps forward.

She spent many years working directly with individuals, couples, and families in office settings and online before moving into private practice for the past 13 years. That history gives her familiarity with everyday struggles like parenting strain, caregiving stress, chronic illness, and blended family challenges. She draws on life experience as a long-term spouse, parent, and grandparent alongside clinical work.

Her approach mixes several useful methods. She uses techniques from acceptance and commitment therapy to help people clarify values and take action. Cognitive behavioral tools help address unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Attachment-based and emotionally-focused ideas guide work on closeness, trust, and repair in relationships.

Sessions aim to be practical and down-to-earth. People can expect clear talk about goals, straightforward tools to practice between meetings, and pacing that fits their needs. Jane helps people sort priorities, build coping skills, and find ways to reconnect with what matters.

She works in South Carolina and conducts therapy in English. If you want to begin, use the Start Therapy button, complete the short matching questionnaire, and schedule a time that fits your calendar.

Therapeutic approaches and how they translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while focusing on actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes by clarifying what matters and setting small steps toward it. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, mood concerns, sleep problems, and managing urges related to addictions. Attachment-Based Therapy concentrates on patterns of closeness and trust in relationships and supports people working on intimacy, repair after conflict, and family connection.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level. That might mean blending ACT tools with CBT skills or using attachment ideas when relationship patterns are central.

Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm which options are available before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing meetings from a convenient location. They also let people choose shorter check-ins or longer work sessions based on what fits their schedule. Licensed professionals can adjust pacing and homework to match how clients prefer to meet and to what works in day-to-day routines.
