About Sarah
Sarah Janes is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor who has practiced in New Mexico for 13 years. She helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, parenting challenges, ADHD, trauma and abuse, anger, and big life changes. Her style is warm and nonjudgmental, and she focuses on practical steps people can use right away.
She uses a mix of approaches to fit each person’s needs. That can include cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
Background and approach
It can also include client-centered work that follows the person's pace and priorities. Sarah often brings solution-focused ideas into sessions so people can set clear, attainable goals. She also draws on mindfulness practices and some art-based exercises when those tools feel useful.
Sessions are shaped to match what the person wants to get out of therapy. In a typical meeting she listens, helps identify small changes, and practices skills that reduce anxiety or lift mood. For parents she can help with parenting stress and managing strong emotions without judging how someone is doing.
The focus is on usable strategies and steady progress. People who want a collaborative, straightforward counselor tend to do well with her approach. She explains methods in plain language and helps people try them between sessions.
Her aim is to support empowerment and clearer coping in day-to-day life.

How Sarah's Approaches Work Online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following the person's lead. The therapist creates a supportive space, reflects what matters most, and helps clients find their own answers. This approach is helpful when someone needs understanding and guidance rather than a rigid plan.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and actions affect mood and behavior. Sessions include practical exercises and skill practice to reduce anxiety, manage anger, or change unhelpful habits. It often works well for stress, depression, and ADHD-related challenges.
Solution-focused therapy aims at clear, short-term goals and steps that move a person forward quickly. It emphasizes what is already working and builds on small successes to create momentum.
Finding the best approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Then they pick methods together and adjust them as needed so the plan fits the client's life and priorities.
Online sessions offer flexibility that can fit busy family schedules or work demands. Video calls let people use visual cues and practice skills in real time. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can be a simpler check-in. Live chat and text messaging make it possible to share short updates, try quick coping tools between meetings, or have brief check-ins when a full session isn't feasible.
