About Jane
Jane Ronec is an AASW social worker with nine years of clinical experience who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and trauma. She listens without judgement and focuses on what matters most to each person. Her style is practical and compassionate, aimed at small steps that make daily life easier.
She works with people dealing with grief, addiction, sleep problems and mood disorders. She also supports those managing career changes, parenting strains, financial stress and relationship or intimacy-related concerns.
Background and approach
Jane pays attention to attachment and abandonment themes when they come up in clients' stories. Jane draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people understand and shift painful emotional patterns. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centred approaches to build values-based action and to centre the person's own goals.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy techniques are used where practical skills can help reduce symptoms and improve coping. Sessions aim to increase emotional awareness, improve communication with others, and build day-to-day strategies for mood and stress management. Jane encourages clients to notice what matters to them and to practice small, achievable changes between sessions.
She frames therapy as a collaborative process where the person leads and the therapist offers guidance. Jane works in Australia and conducts sessions in English. She supports people through life transitions, compassion fatigue, ADHD-related challenges and a wide range of emotional struggles.
Her approach is steady, respectful and focused on real improvements in everyday life.

Online support
How emotion work and practical skills translate online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people notice and name core feelings and attachment patterns so they can change unhelpful cycles in relationships and self-view. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages clarifying values and taking committed action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on being heard and understood, offering a warm, non-judgemental space for people to make sense of their experience.Finding the best approach is part of the work. Jane will talk with each person about their goals, preferences and what has helped or not helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made. This keeps therapy collaborative and tailored to the individual's needs.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video suits deeper conversation and visual connection, phone is useful when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins, and text-based options work for ongoing check-ins or when typing helps reflection. These options provide flexibility for different schedules, quiet times, and ways of communicating that feel most comfortable.
