Online support
How Jill's Approaches Work Online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on understanding and shifting emotional patterns that keep people stuck. It can help people notice painful emotion cycles and try new ways of connecting or responding that feel safer and more effective.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting ruled by them, and then take actions that match their values. This approach is useful for anxiety, stress, and life changes where taking small steps matters.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape expectations and reactions in close relationships today. It can be helpful for parenting concerns, abandonment or adoption-related issues, and difficulties with trust or closeness.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Jill will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked in the past. Together she and the client will try methods that fit the person's needs and adjust as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video is often used for deeper emotion work and nonverbal cues, phone can fit a busy schedule or lower bandwidth, and chat or messaging suit brief check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into daily life and keep consistent momentum toward goals.
