About Jill
Jill draws on Client-Centered Therapy to listen and respond to each person's needs. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thoughts and actions that get in the way, and Solution-Focused Therapy to map small steps toward change. Sessions typically focus on skill building, goal setting, and communication practice rather than long-term analysis.
She emphasizes a collaborative relationship. Jill believes people have strengths to build on, and she offers feedback, perspective, and coaching to help apply those strengths. Conversations are intended to be practical and respectful, not judgmental.
Her background includes work in a community social service agency and many years in private practice. She has incorporated adult ADHD coaching and life coaching into her offerings for over 20 years, focusing on real-world strategies for organization and prioritizing.
People come to Jill for help with grief, compassion fatigue, career questions, fertility concerns, midlife shifts, and young adult issues as well as the everyday strains of parenting. She encourages clients to set concrete goals and track progress between sessions.
How her approaches guide online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and responding to what matters most to the person. It helps when someone needs a respectful space to talk through parenting stress, relationship issues, or life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and actions affect feelings and behavior, and it teaches skills for managing anxiety, impulsivity, and organization. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on setting clear goals and taking small steps toward them, which can be useful for time management, fertility planning, or preparing for childbirth.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Jill will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and she will adjust the plan as progress is made. The aim is practical help that matches real-life needs rather than a one-size-fits-all method.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow consistent check-ins during life transitions. It also supports quick skills practice between appointments and flexible scheduling for people juggling work, caregiving, or medical appointments.
