Background and approach
Jill uses Client-Centered Therapy to follow each person’s pace and priorities. She also draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to spot patterns of thinking that make problems worse, and EMDR for people dealing with traumatic memories. Jill has worked with adults across the life span, including young, middle-aged, and older adults.
She focuses on common concerns like depression, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting strain, sleep problems, and career stress. She also supports people facing caregiving demands, chronic illness, or loss. Sessions aim to blend listening with skill-building.
Jill offers feedback, teaching, and tools so people can practice new ways of coping between appointments. The work is collaborative and grounded in real-world goals like improved sleep, calmer days, or clearer decisions. Jill practices as an LCSW in Indiana and conducts therapy in English.
Her background includes trauma-focused tools and many years helping people move from feeling stuck to making manageable changes.
How Jill’s approaches translate to online therapy
Jill commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) in her work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on hearing each person's perspective and shaping sessions around their priorities, which helps when someone needs a gentle, listening-first approach. CBT teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and often suits anxiety, depression, and sleep problems. EMDR addresses traumatic memories by pairing attention to distressing images with guided bilateral stimulation, which some people find helpful for trauma and acute stress.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Jill works collaboratively to figure out which methods fit a person's goals, comfort, and daily life. She will discuss options, try different techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps most.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls let you use face-to-face interaction for skills practice and EMDR techniques. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when a quieter check-in fits a short break. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to touch base between sessions, share progress, or get brief coaching when life feels intense. These formats aim to make scheduling simpler and to match the style of care a person prefers.
