About Jane
Dr. Jane Barton is a Tennessee psychologist with 28 years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, grief, depression, addiction, and other family and parenting-related issues listed in her practice areas. Dr. Barton works with adults who are managing difficult life changes and emotional strain at home.
Her sessions are straightforward and practical. She listens to what is happening now, helps clarify what matters most, and offers strategies people can try between meetings. She uses methods grounded in Client-Centered Therapy to follow the person's lead, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems active.
Dr. Barton also draws on Existential Therapy to address questions about meaning, direction, and responsibility when life feels unsettled. That approach can help people facing big transitions, emptiness, or questions about identity. She discusses options and adapts steps so they fit each person’s day-to-day life.
Her background includes many years supporting people with family of origin issues, communication problems, codependency, infidelity, and boundaries. She also works with people coping with substance issues, eating problems, anger, shame, and compassion fatigue. Practical communication skills and problem-focused plans are frequent parts of sessions.
Clients start by describing the immediate problem. From there she and the client set short-term goals and pick approaches that feel sensible. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and she offers services in English from Tennessee.
How sessions work
How Dr. Barton uses therapeutic approaches in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and following the person's agenda. In practice this means the therapist reflects what the client says, helps clarify feelings, and supports the client's own choices. It suits people who need space to sort out feelings about relationships or parenting challenges.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It involves identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing small behavioral changes. This approach is often used for anxiety, depression, and habits related to eating or substance use.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will talk with the client about goals and preferences, then suggest which methods to try first. That decision is reviewed and adjusted as progress and needs become clearer.
