Jane Ronec, AASW

Jane Ronec is an AASW social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, grief and depression. She speaks plainly and offers steady support for people trying to get through difficult times. She believes clients know their stories and brings a practical, respectful style to sessions.

Her work often focuses on everyday habits and thoughts that keep problems stuck. She uses mindful self-awareness to spot unhelpful patterns and then practises small, workable changes together with clients. Conversations cover emotions, relationships, sleep and the daily routines that shape mood.

Jane draws on several evidence-based approaches to match what each person needs. She blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with client-centred listening. That means she helps people notice thoughts, clarify values and try experiments that feel manageable.

Over nine years she has worked with issues including addiction, anger, parenting stress and career concerns. Additional areas include attachment and abandonment, body image, coping with life changes and mood disorders. Her experience includes working with trauma and family violence contexts.

Sessions aim to build practical skills people can use between meetings. Jane offers straightforward tools for emotion regulation, communication and problem-solving. The focus is on small steps that fit into everyday life and help people feel more capable and in charge of their next move.

How Jane’s approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and choose actions that match their values rather than getting stuck in unhelpful thinking. It is useful for anxiety, stress and adjusting to life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thinking patterns and testing them with small behavioural experiments to reduce symptoms like low mood and sleep problems. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is about clarifying emotional needs and improving how people connect in important relationships.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to what matters most to you, discuss options and try methods that suit your goals and preferences. Over sessions the chosen mix can be adjusted based on what works for you.

The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm available session types before booking. Online therapy can help fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel, allowing shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and letting people work from quieter surroundings or during a break at work. Approaches like ACT and CBT adapt well to this kind of practical, skills-focused work and can include exercises to practise between meetings.
