Jane Pompeo, LCMHC

Jane Pompeo is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing in Vermont with 15 years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and major life changes. Her style is warm and respectful and she aims to meet each person's needs where they are.

She uses practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients spot unhelpful thinking and change behaviors that get in the way. Jane also draws on client-centered approaches to keep conversations grounded in what matters most to the person in the room.

Mindfulness and narrative methods appear in her work to help people pause, notice patterns, and reframe the stories they carry. Solution-focused techniques are used when someone wants clear steps and short-term goals to move forward quickly.

Over 15 years she has supported people dealing with relationship strain, parenting stress, addiction and recovery concerns, career transitions, and issues around aging and serious illness. She also addresses anger, self-esteem, social anxiety, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.

Jane says the first step can feel hard and she aims to make it straightforward. She tailors conversations and plans to each person's situation and priorities. The emphasis is on practical changes, steady progress, and restoring a sense of control.

CBT, Mindfulness, and Client-Centered Care Online

Jane often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice the thoughts and actions that sustain anxiety or low mood and then try small experiments to change them. CBT is useful for issues like stress, anxiety, depression, and mild addiction patterns because it focuses on clear steps and measurable change.

She also incorporates mindfulness practices to help people build attention and reduce reactivity, and client-centered methods that prioritize the person's experience and goals. Mindfulness supports anyone who wants to manage intense feelings or difficulty concentrating, while client-centered work creates space to be heard and understood.

Finding the right mix is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through options, test approaches, and adjust plans based on what the client finds helpful. Goals, preferences, and everyday constraints guide the choices.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions let people use visual cues and longer conversation, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and keep work moving forward.
