About Jill

Jill Haer is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with more than 15 years in behavioral health. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, grief, and a range of relationship and intimacy concerns. Jill aims to help people notice patterns that get in the way and learn new ways of thinking and communicating.

Her style is direct but compassionate, focused on small, practical steps. Jill uses straightforward conversation to help clients name what matters to them.

Background and approach

She supports exploration of values, emotions, and behaviors so people can try different choices in daily life. Sessions may involve building coping skills, changing unhelpful thoughts, or practicing ways to handle strong feelings. Her training includes approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy.

Those tools are mixed to match the person in front of her rather than following one strict method. Her work also covers issues like trauma and abuse, sexual assault, process and sex addictions, mood disorders, and concerns related to LGBT identities. Jill practices in Delaware and offers services in English.

She also accepts international clients and adapts methods for remote sessions. People seeking help can expect a collaborative process where goals are set together and progress is checked along the way.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify their values and take small, meaningful actions even when feelings are difficult. It can be useful for stress, anxiety, and navigating life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to shift patterns that cause distress. CBT often helps with anxiety, depression, and coping with urges or addictive behaviors.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then mix methods to fit those needs. This is a collaborative process where the plan can change as progress is made and needs evolve.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep momentum between sessions. Licensed professionals can use these options to teach skills, process difficult experiences, and check in on progress without requiring an in-person visit.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
