How Jillanne’s approaches translate to online work

Jillanne uses cognitive behavioral approaches that help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes to reduce worry and improve mood. She also draws on EMDR-style trauma work to help people process intense memories and reduce their emotional hold. Mindfulness practices are used to build calm, notice patterns, and make different choices when stress rises.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Jillanne will talk with the person about their goals, symptoms, and daily routine, then try methods that fit those needs. She adjusts techniques as progress and preferences become clearer, combining tools so work feels relevant and manageable.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the available session formats before booking so you know what to expect. Online work can make fitting therapy into a busy schedule easier, allow shorter check-ins between in-person meetings, and reduce travel time for people juggling jobs or caregiving. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT, EMDR-informed strategies, and mindfulness exercises to remote formats so therapy focuses on real-life changes that fit the person’s day-to-day life.
