About Jill
Jill Brown is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in New York who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship struggles. She also supports those facing parenting challenges, sleep problems, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and intimacy issues. Jill focuses on practical steps people can use day to day. Her tone is warm and respectful, and she centers each session on the person's goals.
She works mainly with adults and older adults and has spent 18 years in practice. That experience includes helping people through life changes, divorce and separation, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and family-of-origin issues. Jill has also worked with clients dealing with autism spectrum concerns, abandonment, and communication problems.
Jill uses a flexible, client-centered approach that adapts to what each person needs. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and next steps. Mindfulness and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are used when they fit the goals people bring to sessions.
Her style is nonjudgmental and collaborative. People set their own goals and Jill helps them build practical skills to reach those goals. Sessions often focus on small, achievable changes that reduce distress and improve daily functioning.
Jill emphasizes respect and care when someone seeks support during a hard time. She encourages straightforward conversation about expectations and next steps, and she welcomes questions about how therapy can fit into a person's life.
Therapeutic approaches for online work
Jill often combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people make sense of difficult thoughts and take meaningful action. CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors, which can reduce worry and low mood. ACT helps people clarify what matters most and commit to small steps that align with those values, useful for stress, grief, and life transitions.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Jill treats the choice of method as collaborative and will adjust techniques based on a person’s goals and preferences. She listens to what is working and what is not, and then tailors sessions so they fit the client’s needs.
Session format details are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, avoid travel time, and use shorter check-ins when that suits the day. It also lets people continue momentum between in-person appointments and practice skills in the context of everyday life. Licensed professionals can recommend practical steps to help sessions translate into real changes outside of appointments.
