About Jill

Jill Rountree is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) with a decade of clinical experience helping people cope with stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, ADHD, and substance-related concerns.

Background and approach

She welcomes clients seeking practical strategies for emotion regulation, improved coping, and recovery from difficult life events, drawing on a warm, client-centered stance that prioritizes each person’s goals and preferences. Her practice reflects a background across correctional facilities, outpatient care, and integrated health settings, and she brings skills developed in varied clinical environments to each therapeutic relationship.

Jill trained in sociology at the University of Michigan - Ann Arbor and earned a Master of Social Work from Wayne State University, and she now practices in Northern Michigan near Traverse City while balancing family life and community activities.

Therapeutic work blends compassionate listening with evidence-informed techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, EMDR, and motivational interviewing. Jill also integrates strengths-based tools from her training as a Registered Yoga Instructor when clients are interested in body-centered supports, helping them build resilience and practical coping plans for daily life.

Combining evidence-based approaches with flexible online sessions



Jill often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful patterns between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors; this approach is useful for anxiety, depression, ADHD-related challenges, and coping with everyday stressors. She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach mindfulness, emotion regulation, and distress tolerance skills that support stability in the face of strong emotions. When trauma is a central concern, EMDR can be introduced to thoughtfully process past distress while building safety and grounding skills first.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jill works with clients to identify priorities, trial methods that fit their goals and preferences, and adjust the plan over time so therapy remains relevant and practical for daily life.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase access and convenience. These options allow people to engage in therapy from their home or other locations, fit sessions around work and family schedules, and use shorter or more flexible check-ins when that better supports progress.
