Background and approach
Jill also addresses parenting concerns, intimacy-related issues, anger, self-esteem, career stress, bipolar mood concerns, and compassion fatigue. Her background includes many years in independent practice where she has guided people through recovery and rebuilding. In sessions she centers the conversation on a person’s goals and day-to-day needs.
Jill uses plain language and practical tools so people can try small changes between meetings. She emphasizes collaboration - you and she will decide what matters most and which steps to take next. Jill combines a range of talking therapies to match each person’s situation.
She draws on client-centered listening, cognitive-behavioral tools for managing thoughts and behaviors, emotionally-focused work around relationships and attachment, and motivational strategies to build drive for change. She also brings longer-term psychodynamic and existential perspectives when questions about meaning and life direction arise. Sessions are offered in English and delivered through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.

Approach-focused online therapy that fits your life
Jill commonly blends client-centered listening with cognitive-behavioral work. Client-centered therapy means the conversation follows your priorities and what feels most urgent. It helps when someone needs space to be heard and to set clear goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress management.She also uses emotionally-focused work for relationship and attachment concerns, helping people notice patterns in close relationships and try different ways of connecting. Choosing the right mix of methods is part of the therapy process. Jill collaborates with each person to find what fits best for their needs, goals, and daily life, and she adjusts the approach as progress and challenges emerge.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video sessions let you use visual cues for relationship work and deeper conversations. Phone sessions can be a good choice when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging can support quick reflections, reminders, and ongoing encouragement between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules while using approaches that suit the issue at hand.
