About Jane
Jane Winston Doman is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in California. She brings ten years of counseling experience and a calm, straightforward style to sessions. She focuses on stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship concerns, and the strain of caregiving.
She made a career change later in life and earned a Master of Arts in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University in 1993. That life experience shapes how she listens and works with people making big changes.
Background and approach
She aims to build a trusting, respectful relationship where goals are clear and realistic. Jane uses an integrated approach that mixes client-centered listening with practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness. She also draws on existential ideas to help people find meaning and the Gottman Method for relationship-focused work.
Sessions are collaborative and grounded in everyday language. In practice she helps people develop coping strategies for panic, phobias, and career stress. She supports those facing loss, caregiver strain, and decisions around aging and end-of-life issues.
Communication problems and family-of-origin concerns are also common themes. Clients can expect straightforward talk, targeted techniques, and gentle reflection. Jane aims to make therapy useful day to day, with steps people can try between sessions.
She welcomes questions about how therapy might fit into the demands of work, caregiving, or other life roles.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches work online
Jane blends the Gottman Method with client-centered care and cognitive behavioral therapy to address relationship and personal concerns. The Gottman Method helps identify interaction patterns and improve communication in relationships. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding what matters most to the person. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thoughts and reduce anxiety and panic.Choosing the right approach happens together. The therapist will ask about your goals, what has helped before, and what feels comfortable. Then she tailors methods and tools to fit your situation so you and the therapist can try a plan and adjust it as needed.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video calls let you use visual cues during conversations. Phone sessions can be a good short check-in or work better when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging allow ongoing check-ins or brief reflections between longer sessions, which can help maintain momentum between appointments.
