Background and approach

Her work draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns that fuel worry and low mood. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to help people clarify values and take small steps toward them. Attachment-based ideas guide work on relationship wounds and trust issues.

Jill has experience with adoption and foster care questions, autism and Asperger syndrome, caregiver stress, and post-traumatic stress. She supports people facing life changes, career stress, parenting challenges, and questions about life purpose. Sessions are conversational and paced to the person.

Jill often adds expressive approaches when talking alone doesn’t capture what someone needs. Her aim is to help clients build workable tools and clearer direction for everyday life.

Approaches that translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, then choose small actions that reflect their values. It is useful for anxiety, low motivation, and coping with change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going and teaches practical skills to shift those patterns. It often helps with anxiety and depression. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships and helps repair trust and communication, which can ease relationship-related stress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Jill collaborates with each person to try approaches that fit their goals and comfort. She reviews what seems to help and adjusts the plan, so methods evolve from the client’s needs and preferences.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit into a busy day or require less bandwidth. Live chat or text messaging supports quick check-ins and ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to schedule care around work, school, or caregiving demands while keeping the focus on steady progress.
