More about me

Licensing: LCSW Years in Practice: 7 State: Louisiana

I am a self-advocate and activist with over ten years personal and professional experience working with adults and children in the Disability Community. I am trained in Social Work and Disability Studies and have an interdiciplinary practice orientation. I call New Orleans home again after a three years in Chicago, and am dedicated to involvement in local and global Disability communities.

As a Coach and Counselor in Queer and Disability communities I understands the specific structural barriers people with diverse identities face. I bring a Neurodiversity and Disability pride perspective to coaching and counseling by sharing knowledge of history, theory, and social models. I believe employment or occupation seeking is a great place to begin exploring any change you want to make in your life. Employment counseling can bring up issues related to anxiety, depression, Autism, ADHD, chronic pain, and other Neurodiversities and Disabilities. I am Queer, Trans, and Non-Binary allied.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Overall

I especially recommend Jane for anyone who lives with disabilities of any kind, she gets it and makes me feel heard and validated.

I like her understanding of my issues. I believe she is trained and has experience

Jane is amazing! Super knowledgeable and responds to messages quickly. She's straight to the point and has unique insights with neurodivergent people like myself

Jane has been tremendous help since I started working with her. I don’t have much experience with counselling/therapy, and I feel like I’ve hit the jackpot with Jane. She communicates well, helps me approach my challenges and overcome them, and offers insight that I often can’t see.

Jane is a wonderful person to work with and talk to! She is supportive and listens to my needs. Jane helped me through some really hard times in my life and still helps me thrive each day. She helped me discover who I am and what I want, as well as how to be okay with it. Jane helped me realize my needs are not too much to meet and that I’m not alone in the way I see the world and relationships.

I have been very happy working Jane. One of the benefits of Better Help is that if a match with your counsellor isn't working, it's very convenient to switch. I have been on the platform for a few years and have never had a 'bad' counsellor, but have chosen to get rematched when I felt I wasn't engaging the way I hoped. Although I struggle to put into words without sharing personal details- Jane has always made me feel heard and seen. In and out of video sessions she has excellent communication skills and I often felt appreciation for her check ins leading up to an upcoming session. I particularly appreciate her insight into subjects surrounding Neurodivergent people and coping with the struggles associated with that day to day. I have been working with her for I believe over 7months and am very happy with the progress I have made.

Jane is very professional and friendly. She consistently gives me advice and support weekly which helps me navigate obstacles I face.

Super kind and helpful and compassionate.

Jane is great to work with and is attentive. She tries her best. Although I think perhaps we could go deeper with working thru some roots problems, I would like to have some epiphany-moments of reflection that give me some ‘aha realisations’ that break some cycles or thought patterns. If it’s fair for me to ask in such short 1 hr sessions, I’d like for her to observe my nature a bit more closer on things that I may not be aware of and point them out so that I can grow through some things. I might be asking for too much at this stage, but I would love to have a therapist that is wise beyond her years, but young enough for this modern life demands in this era.

Lovely woman who knows her stuff. I'm bad at initiating dialogue so she's great for keeping it going

Jane has been very helpful, undertanding, and accommodating.

Jane is so kind and helps guide me towards goals I can actually achieve!

Jane is kind, friendly and very attentive. She provides excellent counseling. I highly recommend her.

Great and supportive therapist.

Jane Rhea is awesome. She’s very responsive and makes herself available to me. I’m very happy with the connection we’ve established and would absolutely recommend her to friends and colleagues.

Jane is absolutely amazing! She has helped me so much with drawing boundaries to protect my mental health and well being. She has helped me to see that my ADHD is not something to be fixed and that my dreams are valid and possible. ❤️ thank you so much Jane !!

very helpful, listens well. supportive and the worksheets were good to use ^u^

She honestly goes above and beyond my expectations. It was so hard for me to find a local therapist that really understands the stuff I'm going through, but it feels like Jane just GETS it. She's also hilarious and compassionate so I highly recommend

Jane is a wonderful therapist. She is really knowledgeable about various topics and she has a way with explaining in way that is understandable. I continue to use her advice and recommended tools and find them very helpful to manage through difficult situations. I appreciate her and would highly recommend her to anyone!

Jane is a wonderful therapist. She is kind, understanding and encouraging. She also suggests a variety of helpful tools to use in my free time.

Jane Rhea is very pleasant, thoughtful and patient. She provided me with various tools to assist with improving with my depression and anxiety.

Jane is an amazing therapist. She’s very understanding, supportive and solutions focused. She has offered me very helpful tools for managing my anxiety and for getting in touch with my emotions. Highly recommended.

Jane is a great therapist. She really listened and encouraged me to try multiple, different activities and practices to help meet my various needs. She is also stern when needed and allowed me to come to certain realizations on my own. I appreciate her and what she's done for me. I would recommend her to anyone in need of this service in a heartbeat.

Jane has helped me alot to feel better and respect myself.

Jane is the best, seriously.

Very helpful

Jane is kind and responsive. She has so many tools and so much wisdom for varying circumstances. It's made my life easier to navigate and less daunting. I would whole heatedly recommend her to anyone.

Jane is uplifting and spirited. Her positive energy can be felt even in a phone call, I always feel more grounded after my session. Highly recommend

Jane is such a great listener. She validates me and helps provide clarity. I knew after our first session that she was the right therapist for me.

Jane Rhea is an excellent counselor. I rave about her to everyone in my life, and have recommended Better Health on the basis of how positive my experiences with her have been. I can barely afford this service, but having Jane Rhea as a guiding voice to speak to has gotten me through some big life changes and has helped me live better day to day.

Jane is very patient and understanding. In these few sessions that I have had with her I can feel a sense of relief and calm!

My experience working with Jane as my counselor has been overwhelmingly positive. I feel listened to, validated, provided with great reaources and I feel like my thoughts are being challenged in a safe space. Would highly recommend.
