About Susan

Susan "Jill" Hedges is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) working from Kentucky. She has 16 years of counseling experience and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and life transitions. Her approach is grounded in respect for each person's strengths and capacity to change.

Jill uses clear, person-focused methods in sessions. She favors Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside cognitive and acceptance-based tools. Conversations are practical and aimed at helping people notice feelings, try new behaviors, and make sense of difficult experiences.

Background and approach

She often combines talk-based work with approaches that consider attachment and life story. That can help when people struggle with relationships, parenting pressures, or caregiving stress. She also addresses concerns such as ADHD, autism spectrum issues, adoption and foster care, and coping after loss or trauma.

Jill frames therapy as a collaborative process. She listens first, then helps set short-term goals and realistic steps. Sessions can focus on building emotional awareness, improving communication, and developing coping strategies for everyday life.

Her background includes clinical practice across a range of mood and trauma-related concerns. She brings a human-centered stance and practical techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. This mix aims to balance emotional insight with concrete skills.

People who prefer a respectful, steady clinician that emphasizes personal strengths may find her approach helpful. She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients, with flexible online formats available.

Online support

Emotion and Action in Online Care

Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people tune into their feelings and work through painful emotional patterns, often improving connection to themselves and others. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people accept difficult thoughts while committing to actions that match their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to concerns, goals, and preferences, then suggest approaches to try. That process is collaborative and can shift over time as needs change.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit daily life. Video is useful for deeper conversations and emotional work, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can support quick check-ins or shorter reflections between sessions. These options let people schedule therapy around work, caregiving, or other commitments while keeping continuity of care.
