About

Jane A Weiss, LCSW

Psychotherapy is an avenue to help you discover and then drop all the barriers – thoughts, emotions, mistaken beliefs – that build walls between you and your birthright to live a full, balanced, and satisfying life.

As a graduate from the University of Utah’s Master of Social Work program, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in private practice, with over 20 years of clinical experience. I offer therapy as well as useful information to help anyone improve their mental health, relationships, and quality of life. I come from a psychodynamic perspective, and teach cognitive-behavioral strategies for lasting change.

Through compassionate listening in a safe atmosphere, my clients and I join to discover what’s not working for them, and decide on the outcomes they wish to achieve. In addition, I offer support and the necessary education, training, and self-management skills to last a lifetime.

I have experience working with a diverse population of clientele with problems ranging from life-dissatisfaction to chronic mental illness. I also develop trainings and seminars to meet various business needs. Most of my clients are patient-referrals, attesting to their overall satisfaction.

If you have ineffective patterns of coping, they have become elusive roadblocks, depriving you of your birthright to live a full, balanced, and satisfying life. Through therapy we can explore ways to rewire some of the brain-body’s automatic reactions to experiences. In doing so, we can literally change the effects of your history. When this process is repeated over the course of your therapy it will also help restore the inborn nature of the nervous system to regulate emotion.

OUR PROCESS MAY INCLUDE:

Skills Training: communication, assertiveness, managing emotions (i.e., anger, anxiety, depression, grief, shyness, social fears); mindfulness; cognitive restructuring; increasing self-awareness and self- esteem.

Journaling: free-flow consciousness, the Awareness Wheel, Inner Child healing, dialogues, the ‘unsent’ letter, and The Work.

Life Values Clarification: including identifying, action planning, and evaluating progress as well as setbacks.

As the result of a traumatic experience, clients of mine needed counselling to cope. I became aware of the situation late in the day on a Friday afternoon. I offered to help my clients find some assistance. After two unsuccessful attempts at locating a crisis counselor who would speak with the distraught clients on short notice I found Jane. She was immediately responsive, agreeing to contact my clients right away. She committed to meet with them on the weekend if they felt the need to do so.

Jane responded to the predicament and stepped right up to meet the needs of my upset clients. She handled the matter very well, making herself available at the clients’ convenience, sensitively assessing their needs and capably helping them cope with the difficult situation.

I am pleased to recommend Jane Weiss as someone who will address your difficulties with a warm, caring attitude and in whom you may place your trust with confidence.
