About Jana
Jana Wilson is a LPCC - Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in Kentucky with three years of professional experience. She focuses on common early-adult pressures such as stress, anxiety, relationship strain, career uncertainty, and difficulties with identity and life transitions. Jana also works with trauma and abuse, grief, addiction concerns, ADHD, and intimacy-related issues.
Jana uses straightforward conversation to help people clarify what matters to them and set practical steps forward. She blends client-centered listening with cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. Dialectical behavior therapy skills are used when people need help managing strong emotions or improving relationships.
Her style is interactive and goal-focused. Sessions usually involve talking through recent problems, trying simple skills in-session, and practicing them between meetings. She helps clients weigh options, plan changes, and cope when progress stalls.
Jana has experience addressing family-related pressures like blended family tensions, caregiver stress, and divorce or separation concerns. She also supports people dealing with shame, guilt, isolation, jealousy, and money stress as part of broader life adjustment work.
She offers coaching-oriented support alongside counseling for clients who want practical steps toward career or life goals. People can expect clear discussion, concrete strategies, and attention to how emotional patterns affect everyday choices.
How Jana’s approaches translate to online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the client. Online sessions using this approach emphasize open conversation, clear questions, and collaborative planning to help the client name priorities and next steps.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. In an online session CBT work may include identifying unhelpful thought patterns, trying small behavioral experiments, and using homework between sessions to test new ways of responding.
Dialectical behavior therapy, DBT, teaches concrete skills for managing intense emotions and handling conflict with others. Online DBT-style work often breaks skills into manageable steps and practices them during sessions so clients can use them in daily life.
Deciding which approach to use is a joint effort. Jana will work with clients to pick methods that fit their goals, personality, and the problems they bring. That collaborative process usually starts with a clear discussion of what someone wants to change and a plan to try specific techniques.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, limit travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Talk with the therapist about how to structure sessions to match school, shifts, or other commitments.
