She speaks English, Spanish, and French and brings 12 years of clinical experience to her work. Jill offers in-person insight and telehealth options to fit different needs.

Her style is straightforward and practical. Sessions focus on clear goals and simple tools you can use between meetings. She listens first, then helps people spot unhelpful thinking and build new coping skills that make daily life easier.

Jill blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centered techniques. That mix aims to change troubling thoughts while increasing actions that match personal values. She also uses skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and relationship-focused methods when they can help.

Her background includes individual outpatient therapy, telehealth, and leading group programs in residential and outpatient settings. Jill has worked with people dealing with trauma, grief, mood instability, ADHD, addiction, domestic violence, and adoption-related issues. Her approach draws on years of practice with varied concerns.

In sessions she provides psychoeducation, practical exercises, and step-by-step strategies. She helps clients tackle impulsivity, communication problems, low self-esteem, and the stress of life transitions. The goal is to leave therapy with concrete skills to manage symptoms and improve relationships.

How Jill’s Approaches Work Online

Jill often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT breaks problems into small, manageable steps and teaches practical techniques for anxiety, depression, and addictive behaviors.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients accept difficult feelings while choosing actions that match their values. ACT can be useful for stress, life changes, and persistent mood problems. Client-centered methods are part of her work as well, which means conversations stay focused on the person’s experience and goals rather than on a fixed protocol.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Jill will talk with each person about their needs and goals and then recommend methods to try. She adapts tools over time so therapy remains relevant to day-to-day life.

Online sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for longer discussions and skill practice. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging make it easier to fit brief updates into a busy day. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and accessible for people with different schedules and needs.
