About Jillian

Her approach blends evidence-informed methods with collaborative support, using techniques that fit the client’s rhythm and goals.

Practical approaches for online therapy and coping skills

Jillian commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in online work. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and collaborating from the client’s own goals so people feel heard and empowered to explore their values and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaching concrete strategies to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and address patterns that interfere with daily functioning.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Jillian will work with each person to discuss needs, preferences, and goals, then adapt techniques over time so therapy remains relevant and practical. She aims to combine supportive listening with measurable steps that fit the client’s pace.

Online sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care while balancing work, family, and other responsibilities, and allow clients to pursue therapy in ways that suit their daily life.
