About Jill

Jill Brown is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in New York with 18 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, grief, self-esteem, and issues related to intimacy and parenting. She also works with people navigating ADHD, trauma and abuse, sleeping problems, and compassion fatigue.

Jill works with adults and older adults, helping them set clear goals and practical steps. Sessions are straightforward and goal-focused. She uses everyday language and aims to make hard topics easier to talk about.

Her approach borrows from several evidence-based methods. Jill uses techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and try out different behaviors. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clarify values and take meaningful action.

Mindfulness and person-centered ideas are part of her work too. These practices help people notice patterns and increase their ability to manage strong emotions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are used when emotional regulation and stress tolerance are priorities.

Jill tends to shape each plan around what a person wants to change. She emphasizes clear goals, practical tools, and steady progress rather than labels or jargon. Her style suits people who want direct, practical help with day-to-day problems and relationships.

BHow sessions work

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to a person and taking small steps toward those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses practical experiments to change patterns that cause distress. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, sleep difficulties, and anger. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus; it can help with stress, compassion fatigue, and emotion regulation.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels useful. They will try methods and adjust the plan together so the approach fits the person and the problem.

The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They also let clients practice skills in their regular environment and bring real-life situations into the session for discussion. Licensed professionals can help decide whether a particular format will suit the client’s goals and day-to-day routine.
