About Jill

Jill Wasserman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan with eight years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, bipolar disorder, and depression. She also addresses ADHD, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting strain, anger, and self-esteem struggles.

Her approach emphasizes clear conversation and practical steps. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques when they fit the situation.

In sessions she focuses on concrete skills - recognizing patterns, testing new behaviors, and practicing coping strategies between meetings. She helps people break large problems into manageable tasks and track small changes over time. Clients can expect check-ins on progress and adjustments to the plan as needed.

She has worked with concerns that often appear together, such as mood disorders with substance use or anxiety with obsessive thinking. That experience informs how she prioritizes goals and sequences interventions. Jill aims to keep work straightforward and goal-oriented while attending to immediate difficulties.

Jill provides services in English and practices in Michigan. Before booking, readers should confirm current session options and formats to make sure they match their needs.

How Jill’s approaches translate to online work

Jill uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to focus on changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; CBT often involves short experiments, thought records, and step-by-step skill practice that adapt well to remote sessions. Client-Centered Therapy adds a straightforward, collaborative listening style that centers what the person reports and shapes goals around their priorities. Dialectical Behavior Therapy contributes practical skills for managing emotion, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness when those needs arise.

Choosing the best approach is part of the work together. Jill will discuss goals and preferences and recommend which methods to try first. The plan can be adjusted over time based on what helps and what feels realistic for day-to-day life.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into busy schedules - for example shorter check-ins between work shifts, fewer commute hours, or using phone sessions when bandwidth is low. Many people find online work useful for practicing skills in real time and for keeping consistent appointments despite a busy life.
