Online support
How Jill’s approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then identify personal values and take small committed steps. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking patterns and trying new behaviors to reduce symptoms like low mood or panic. It often includes homework and practical skill building. Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening, empathy, and supporting the person’s own goals rather than directing the session. This approach helps build trust and clarifies what someone wants to change.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Jill collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and daily routine. She checks in regularly and adjusts strategies if something isn’t working, so the plan stays useful and realistic.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls let people use visual cues for deeper conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging support quick check-ins, brief coaching, or pauses between longer sessions. These options make scheduling easier around work, caregiving, or medical appointments while keeping therapy practical and consistent.
