Jill is easily the most empathetic and caring provider I have had the privilege of working with. She will (and does) go above and beyond for her clients. She is smart, insightful and an absolute delight. I would, and have, highly recommended her to both friends and family.

More about Jill

  • 25 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Florida with more than 25 years of experience supporting women through life’s most difficult moments. I work exclusively with women of all ages.

I specialize in helping women cope with depression, anxiety, stress, and the aftermath of trauma. I also help women work through grief and loss, major life transitions, loneliness, and painful relationships. I have significant experience supporting survivors of sexual assault, domestic violence, and other forms of abuse, including narcissistic abuse by a family member or significant other. I work with adult children of alcoholics and women who grew up in other dysfunctional families, as well as women affected by a loved one’s drinking, including those involved in Al-Anon. I also help women heal from codependency and family-of-origin wounds. Whatever brings you here, you don’t have to carry it alone.

My approach is trauma-informed, evidence-based, and centered on you. I believe that feeling safe, heard, and respected is where healing begins. Together, we can work on rebuilding your self-worth, setting healthier boundaries, improving communication, and finding a renewed sense of purpose. I’ll meet you where you are, move at your pace, and walk beside you with compassion and honesty.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
