Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Client-centered therapy emphasizes the person's own goals and pace. The therapist listens closely and follows the client's lead to build trust and make changes that feel meaningful. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety, low mood, and eating-related patterns.

Jillian combines these approaches when working online so each plan matches what matters most to the client. She will collaborate with the person to decide which methods to try first, adjusting them over time based on progress and preferences. This collaborative process helps find the best fit for symptoms like trauma responses, body image concerns, or relationship stress.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video works well for in-depth conversations and exercises. Phone sessions can be shorter check-ins or fit around a busy day. Live chat and text messaging let people share between sessions or check in when a quick question or coping skill is needed. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into everyday life.
