About Jill

Jill Brown is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in New York. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, sleep difficulties, relationship strain, and parenting challenges. Her work also covers grief, self-esteem, trauma and abuse, and many day-to-day life changes.

She aims for practical, down-to-earth conversations. Sessions focus on goals the client sets. Jill combines clear skill-building with listening and support so people leave with doable next steps and calmer routines.

Her practice draws on several approaches, including cognitive behavioral techniques, acceptance and commitment ideas, dialectical behavior strategies, and client-centered methods. Mindfulness is often part of sessions when it fits a person’s needs. Jill adapts tools to match each person rather than using one fixed method.

Jill has 18 years of clinical experience working across a wide range of concerns. She has supported people with ADHD, adjustment issues, and challenges tied to caregiving, chronic health problems, and life transitions. Her background includes work with adults and older adults.

People who reach out can expect a warm, respectful tone and straightforward guidance. Jill encourages clients to set concrete goals and practices small changes between sessions. Her focus is on steady progress and skills that help with sleep, stress, and daily functioning.

How these approaches guide online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts without getting stuck in them and then focus on actions that match their values. It can help with anxiety, low mood, and patterns that interfere with sleep and daily routines.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches step-by-step strategies to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep disruption, and managing stressful situations.

Client-Centered Therapy centers on the person’s experience and priorities, with the therapist offering empathic listening and support while the client sets the pace and goals.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jill will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That may mean trying one technique for a while and adjusting as progress is made.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand it. It can also let people practice skills and track sleep and routines between sessions to make progress in real life.
