About Jon
Dr. Jon Kayne is a licensed independent mental health practitioner with 50 years of professional experience. He centers his work on practical steps people can use to manage stress, anxiety, mood shifts, and the challenges of everyday life.

Background and approach
ADHD is one of the concerns he lists among his practice areas. Dr. Kayne believes each person knows their own story best.
He treats clients as partners in therapy and looks for strengths to build on rather than just focusing on problems. That approach keeps sessions focused and actionable. In sessions he uses straightforward, evidence-informed methods like acceptance and commitment techniques and cognitive behavioral ideas mixed with client-centered listening.
He aims to help people notice what matters to them, try small experiments, and change patterns that no longer serve them. People who come to him generally want clear, honest conversation and tools they can use between sessions. He works from Nebraska and offers sessions in English.
He welcomes international clients and matches his methods to each person's situation and goals.
Approaches that translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice what matters to them and take small, values-based actions even when feelings are difficult. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and motivation problems. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments to change mood and behavior. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and sleep difficulties. Attachment-Based Therapy centers on how past relationship patterns show up now and clears the way for healthier connections and steady self-regard.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk about what you want to change, try a few ways of working, and adjust based on what fits your goals and rhythm. Sessions are collaborative and focused on real-world steps you can use between meetings.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good when you want face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier when you need a focused check-in. Live chat and text messaging let you send quick updates, try brief coaching, or keep momentum between longer meetings. Together these options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to continue work even when schedules or locations change.
