About Jan

Jan Tang is a licensed mental health counselor with 23 years of clinical experience in New York. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, workplace problems, and challenges tied to identity. Jan also supports those dealing with trauma, grief, addictions, ADHD, and mood shifts.

Her style is straightforward and collaborative. She listens first to understand what matters most to each person. Sessions focus on practical steps people can try between appointments, and on noticing what gets in the way of feeling better.

Jan uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and tests small changes. She also brings mindfulness techniques to help people calm racing thoughts and build steady focus. These methods are used to address anxiety, panic, low mood, and work stress among other concerns.

She pays attention to culture, identity, and lived experience when planning care. This means discussing how background, relationships, and workplace expectations affect mood and choices. She aims to create an affirming space for LGBT people and others whose identities shape their day-to-day life.

Jan works with practical issues like money worries, career transitions, and compassion fatigue. Her goal is to help people build coping skills, clearer decision making, and stronger self-regard. To begin, a simple intake helps match priorities and set manageable goals.

How CBT and Mindfulness work online

Jan uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try small behavioral changes. CBT focuses on concrete steps such as testing beliefs, practicing different responses, and tracking progress to reduce anxiety and low mood.

She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to teach simple attention and breathing practices. Mindfulness helps reduce rumination and builds steadier focus, which can be useful for panic, stress, and workplace pressure.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jan collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and daily life. She checks in about what helps and adapts plans as progress or challenges emerge.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online care can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce commute time, and allow short check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people practice skills in the settings where their stress actually happens, which many find helpful.
