About Jane

Jane Fortune is an LPC licensed in South Carolina with 20 years of counseling experience. She has worked in private practice for many years and has previously provided in-office and online care to individuals and couples. Her work covers a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, relationships, trauma and abuse, depression, and grief.

Fortune centers on emotional experience and relationship patterns. She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people name and shift the emotions that keep them stuck. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients build coping strategies and clearer behavior patterns.

Sessions often include direct talk about current problems and focused work on interactional patterns. She pays attention to attachment issues, intimacy-related worries, parenting strain, and blended family challenges. Practical skills for sleep, anger, and managing mood are part of many plans.

Her background includes clinical work with addiction, chronic health challenges, grief, and cancer caregiver stress. She also has experience addressing adoption and foster care concerns, abandonment, dissociation, and eating and food-related issues. This range allows her to connect emotional material to everyday life changes.

People who come for relationship work will find attention to how emotions get expressed and how that shapes closeness. For those focused on personal coping, sessions look at values, habits, and small behavior shifts to support steadier days. To begin, prospective clients are invited to review online therapy options and complete a matching questionnaire before scheduling a first session.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people notice and name the emotions that drive relationship patterns. Online work with EFT often focuses on real-time interaction and learning new ways to express needs and respond to others. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches skills for accepting uncomfortable thoughts and committing to values-based action; it can help with anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships shape expectations and reactions, and it supports people working to change those patterns.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences, then use elements from these methods that fit the situation. That might mean focusing on emotional access in some weeks and on behavior or values work in others.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten commute time, and allow follow-up check-ins without needing extra travel. They also allow practical work on communication and emotion skills in the context of daily life. Licensed professionals can adapt the session focus to match what the client needs and wants to work on.
