About Jan
Jan Horner is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who centers Motivational Interviewing in her work to help people find forward movement. She focuses on building a respectful, caring connection and uses that relationship to guide change. Her approach is practical and straightforward, aimed at helping people clarify what matters and take workable steps toward it.
Her sessions emphasize listening without judgment and responding to what comes up in the moment. She helps people name their goals and notice the small shifts that lead to bigger changes. This includes addressing difficulties with mood, anxiety, addictions, and stress, and working through grief, trauma, or relationship strain.
Jan also brings Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Client-Centered methods into conversation with Motivational Interviewing. That means she helps people notice thoughts and feelings, choose actions that match their values, and build habits that support recovery and growth. She frames change as a series of concrete choices rather than a single event.
She has ten years of clinical experience and works with a wide range of concerns like self-esteem, parenting stress, career transitions, ADHD, and issues related to aging or end-of-life decisions. Her style is steady and collaborative, aiming to help people develop resilience and clearer direction.
People who meet with Jan can expect a calm, attentive space where practical steps and personal values guide the work. She invites clients to explore what matters most and to build realistic plans for change.

How Jan’s Approaches Work in Online Therapy
Motivational Interviewing focuses on helping people find their own reasons for change. It uses open questions and reflective listening to build momentum for practical steps, which can help with addictions, ambivalence about life changes, and motivation around health or behavior goals.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying what truly matters to them. The work emphasizes small, value-driven actions that reduce avoidance and increase life meaning, often useful for anxiety, depression, and grief.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then try methods that fit those needs. Sessions may shift over time as new challenges or priorities appear, and the client helps guide that direction.
The practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy life. Online work can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make it simpler to meet during a lunch break or between obligations. Because the biography does not specify formats, confirm available session types before booking to make sure they fit your routine and needs. -
