About Jane
Jane Winston Doman is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in California. She brings a calm, direct style to sessions and focuses on helping people find practical ways to reach their goals. Jane shifted into therapy after a career change later in life and completed a Master of Arts in Clinical Psychology at Antioch University in 1993.
That experience shaped how she listens to people who are also facing big life changes.
Background and approach
She has about 10 years of practice experience working with adults and couples, and with adult children caring for an aging parent. Her background includes work in community mental health with older adults and caregivers. Those roles involved helping people cope with stress, grief, and the existential questions that often come with caregiving and end-of-life stages.
She also has experience supporting people through anxiety, panic, depression, and relationship difficulties. In sessions Jane uses a mix of approaches based on what a person needs. She draws on client-centered methods to prioritize the person’s concerns, cognitive behavioral techniques to address unhelpful thinking and behavior, and existential ideas to face life’s deeper questions.
Mindfulness and family-focused techniques are also part of her work when helpful. People who come to Jane can expect collaborative, straightforward care. She focuses on building trust, identifying coping strategies, and helping people take steps toward the changes they want.

Online support
Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Existential Therapy helps people face big life questions and find meaning when things feel uncertain. It involves talking through values, purpose, and how to live with choices and loss, which can be explored in depth over video or phone. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person, creating a supportive space for people to tell their story and be heard. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful habits, often with concrete homework that works well between sessions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to a person's goals and preferences, then suggest one or a mix of approaches and adjust as needed. That makes the process collaborative and tailored to each person's situation.
Online formats here include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversations and interactive exercises. Phone sessions can fit a break at work or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging suit brief check-ins, journaling-style reflection, or people who prefer typing. These options make scheduling more flexible and can help therapy fit into a busy life.
