Sessions are conversational and direct, with room for humor when it fits. Jill aims to make the work feel manageable instead of overwhelming. Her background includes work with people affected by trauma and child abuse, and she currently practices in a middle school setting in Missouri.
Background and approach
That variety of experience informs how she responds to stress, relationship strain, and grief. Therapy often combines cognitive behavioral ideas with client-centered listening and mindfulness practices. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas when helpful, and tailors conversations and plans to each person's needs.
The focus is on small, realistic changes that add up over time. Jill also addresses caregiving stress, first responder issues, ADHD-related challenges, and the effects of isolation or life changes. She works with concerns such as self-harm history, sexual assault and abuse, bipolar disorder, and mood disorders, aiming to help people develop clearer coping skills.
People who choose her can expect steady support and practical tools. Jill encourages open, honest conversation and partners with each person to set useful goals and track progress over time.

Online therapy using practical, evidence-informed approaches
Jill commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy during online sessions. ACT focuses on clarifying values and taking small steps toward a meaningful life, which can help with anger, stress, and life transitions. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns, useful for anxiety, depression, and mood disorders.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will listen to your goals and preferences and adapt methods as needed. This is a collaborative process where the client helps shape which tools and exercises feel most helpful.
Online formats offered include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and real-time feedback. Phone sessions can fit into a busy day or use less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, tracking progress, or reaching out between longer sessions. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into everyday life.
