I am a self-advocate and activist with over ten years personal and professional experience working with adults and children in the Disability Community. I am trained in Social Work and Disability Studies and have an interdiciplinary practice orientation. I call New Orleans home again after a three years in Chicago, and am dedicated to involvement in local and global Disability communities.
As a Coach and Counselor in Queer and Disability communities I understands the specific structural barriers people with diverse identities face. I bring a Neurodiversity and Disability pride perspective to coaching and counseling by sharing knowledge of history, theory, and social models. I believe employment or occupation seeking is a great place to begin exploring any change you want to make in your life. Employment counseling can bring up issues related to anxiety, depression, Autism, ADHD, chronic pain, and other Neurodiversities and Disabilities. I am Queer, Trans, and Non-Binary allied.

Solid. Very professional. Seems like a nice person.
Written on Mar 07, 2025 after therapy with Jane for 2 weeks on issues concerning grief
Jane is excellent. She pushes me to problem solve, prepare for the future, and deal with life in small bites which is something I have struggled with in the past. I appreciate the way she approaches problems and that she teaches me how to walk through them to solutions vs just giving me the answer. Jane is very down to earth and supportive, she comes highly recommended by me!
Written on Jan 31, 2025 after therapy with Jane for 4 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, lgbt, trauma and abuse, eating disorders, self esteem, and career difficulties
I have been working with Jane for a very short period of time. I immediately felt very comfortable talking with Jane and sharing with her what I am dealing with. For me, that is the most important thing when working with a therapist. I need to be able to be 100% honest, open, and transparent. If not, it’s wasting not only my time, but hers as well. What I really like about Jane is that she allows me the opportunity to take our session in whatever direction I want or need to take it, but if I do not have a direction, she will step in and help me explore other areas. I am looking forward to her challenging me to explore areas that may not be comfortable. I trust Jane completely. I trust her to the point that I could find a different therapist that accepts my insurance, but I feel it is in my best interest to continue with Jane even if it means I continue to pay completely out of pocket. I am truly at a crossroads in my life and I am thankful to have Jane to take this journey with.

Jane has been tremendous help since I started working with her. I don’t have much experience with counselling/therapy, and I feel like I’ve hit the jackpot with Jane. She communicates well, helps me approach my challenges and overcome them, and offers insight that I often can’t see.
Written on Jan 18, 2024 after therapy with Jane for 9 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, lgbt, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, self esteem, anger management, career difficulties, coping with life changes, coaching, and adhd
Jane is a wonderful person to work with and talk to! She is supportive and listens to my needs. Jane helped me through some really hard times in my life and still helps me thrive each day. She helped me discover who I am and what I want, as well as how to be okay with it. Jane helped me realize my needs are not too much to meet and that I’m not alone in the way I see the world and relationships.

I have been very happy working Jane.
One of the benefits of Better Help is that if a match with your counsellor isn't working, it's very convenient to switch. I have been on the platform for a few years and have never had a 'bad' counsellor, but have chosen to get rematched when I felt I wasn't engaging the way I hoped.
Although I struggle to put into words without sharing personal details- Jane has always made me feel heard and seen. In and out of video sessions she has excellent communication skills and I often felt appreciation for her check ins leading up to an upcoming session.
I particularly appreciate her insight into subjects surrounding Neurodivergent people and coping with the struggles associated with that day to day.
I have been working with her for I believe over 7months and am very happy with the progress I have made.

Jane is great to work with and is attentive. She tries her best. Although I think perhaps we could go deeper with working thru some roots problems, I would like to have some epiphany-moments of reflection that give me some ‘aha realisations’ that break some cycles or thought patterns. If it’s fair for me to ask in such short 1 hr sessions, I’d like for her to observe my nature a bit more closer on things that I may not be aware of and point them out so that I can grow through some things. I might be asking for too much at this stage, but I would love to have a therapist that is wise beyond her years, but young enough for this modern life demands in this era.
