Background and approach

In sessions she blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and client-centered techniques. That means she helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, practice new skills, and clarify what matters most to them. She also uses strategies that address motivation and processing traumatic memories when needed.

Her style is warm and validating while remaining goal-oriented. Clients can expect a mix of listening, skill teaching, and collaborative planning. Jillian aims to help people build practical routines, reduce distressing thoughts, and improve daily functioning.

For parents juggling stress and parenting demands, she offers a practical, nonjudgmental space to talk through challenges. The focus is on small, usable changes that fit real life and family rhythms.

Therapeutic approaches and online options for everyday struggles

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, ACT, helps people get clearer about personal values and take steps toward them even when feelings are hard. It is useful for stress, anxiety, and direction when life feels stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying practical behavior changes to reduce symptoms like anxiety, low mood, or sleep problems. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, teaches emotional regulation and distress tolerance skills that can help with intense emotions and impulsivity.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then try methods that fit those aims. Plans are adjusted over time based on what helps most, so clients play an active role in shaping their care.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to work through issues. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions keep things simple when on the go, and live chat or text messaging support shorter check-ins or skill practice between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy parenting schedules and everyday life.

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.
