Background and approach
Jillian listens without judgment and pays attention to each person’s unique history. Her approach draws on client-centered methods that prioritize the person’s goals and pace. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance.
Jillian also incorporates Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing as one option for addressing painful memories. Sessions are collaborative and tailored. Jillian checks in often to see what is working and adjusts strategies if needed.
She aims to help people build concrete tools for managing emotions, improving relationships, and navigating transitions. People who reach out can expect calm, straightforward guidance and support for real-world problems. Jillian encourages small, sustainable changes and helps people move from feeling stuck toward clearer steps forward.

How Jillian’s Approaches Work Online
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's own goals and values. The therapist offers empathic listening and helps people set practical steps that match their priorities in life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete tools to change patterns that cause distress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal skills, which can help with strong emotions like anger.Choosing the right method is a team effort. Jillian will talk with each person about their goals, try approaches that fit, and adjust as progress and needs become clearer. The process is collaborative so the plan matches what the person wants to work on and how they prefer to learn skills.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues and longer conversations. Phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging allow shorter check-ins, step-by-step skill practice, and more frequent communication between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and daily life.
