How Jill’s Approaches Translate to Online Work

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and reflecting back what matters to you so the session follows your priorities. This approach helps when someone wants their own values and goals to steer the work rather than a preset plan.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks down problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and trying concrete changes, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, anger, and stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Jill will work together with each person to figure out which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is revisited as progress is made and circumstances change.

Confirm the session formats offered before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for more flexible scheduling. It can also make shorter check-ins or focused skill-practice easier to arrange during a workday or between appointments.
