Jane Ronec , AASW

Jane Ronec is an Australia-based AASW-credentialed practitioner with nine years of professional experience helping people navigate significant life challenges. She brings focused experience supporting people affected by family violence and works extensively with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, and depression. Jane also assists clients facing changes at work, family difficulties, and the everyday strains that can erode wellbeing.

She draws on several evidence-informed approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centered methods, and cognitive behavioral techniques to tailor care to each person’s needs. Jane believes that the person in therapy is the expert in their own life story and that strengths already present can be mobilised to support meaningful change. Her style emphasises collaboration, practical skill-building, and compassionate support as clients move toward clearer direction and improved coping.

Jane holds the AASW credential, which indicates membership in the Australian Association of Social Workers and a commitment to professional standards in Australia. She offers support across a broad range of concerns - from relationship and family issues to grief, self-esteem, addictions, sleep difficulties, parenting challenges, anger, career and mood concerns - with attention to each client’s goals and pace.

Approaches that guide online support and healing

Jane Ronec commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centered therapy to guide online sessions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters most to them and develop practical skills to act on those values even when difficult thoughts or feelings arise - it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes. Client-centered therapy focuses on offering a respectful, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship where the client’s experience guides the pace and direction of work - this approach supports issues such as grief, self-esteem, and relationship concerns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Jane works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adapts techniques over time as those needs evolve.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to access licensed professionals from different locations within Australia. These formats provide flexible ways to practice skills, reflect between sessions, and maintain continuity of care when in-person visits are not possible.
