How Jillian’s Approaches Work Online
Jillian uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing in her online practice. CBT focuses on spotting and shifting unhelpful thought and behavior patterns, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress. Motivational Interviewing centers on strengthening a person’s own reasons for change, which can be helpful for addictions, career decisions, and making life adjustments.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and how they respond to different techniques. That collaboration helps decide whether CBT, motivational strategies, mindfulness exercises, or solution-focused steps will be most useful for the current needs.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different schedules and situations. Video works well for deeper conversations and reading nonverbal cues, while phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text-based messaging can suit brief check-ins, ongoing coaching, or times when written reflection feels more helpful. These options aim to make therapy flexible and easier to fit into busy lives.
