How Jill’s approaches translate to online therapy
Client-centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so a person feels heard and understood. It helps people clarify values, make choices, and feel less judged during hard conversations.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It teaches concrete strategies for anxiety, stress, and unhelpful thinking, and helps with skills such as time management and organization for adult ADHD.
Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on goals and small, practical steps. It is useful when someone wants quick, targeted change or clearer next steps for parenting, career, or relationship decisions.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Jill will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and preferences and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, shorten travel time, and allow focus on concrete skill practice between meetings. Some people find virtual sessions better for brief check-ins or focused coaching, while others prefer longer conversations for deeper processing. Discussing practical scheduling needs during the matching process helps ensure sessions fit into everyday life.
