About Jill

Jill Martin is a counsellor registered as NCPS in the United Kingdom with 17 years of professional experience. She works with people who struggle with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, relationship concerns, grief and anger. She also supports those facing life changes, eating-related issues, bipolar and depression and related difficulties.

Her style places the client at the centre of the work. She treats people as the expert on their own story and helps them draw on strengths already present. Sessions are practical and straightforward, focusing on small steps that can reduce overwhelm and improve day-to-day coping.

Jill uses a mix of familiar approaches such as client-centred listening, cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness. She brings motivational interviewing and solution-focused ideas when people want to build momentum and see short-term change. These methods are used to help people manage strong feelings, reduce unhelpful patterns and try new ways of responding.

In sessions she works through specific problems and practical skills. This might include spotting thinking patterns, testing different responses, and building routines that ease stress. She also helps people plan for difficult conversations and manage anger that affects work or close relationships.

Her background across many settings informs a practical approach to common problems like panic, obsessive thinking, process addictions and life transitions. People who choose her often want clear steps and grounded strategies rather than abstract theory. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and arrange an initial session using the online booking path.

How Jill uses practical approaches in online sessions

Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and reflection. The therapist follows the person’s lead, helps clarify priorities and builds on existing strengths. This approach suits people who want to be heard and want practical steps that feel manageable.

Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviours that keep problems going. It uses simple experiments, planning and thought records to test unhelpful assumptions and reduce strong reactions like anger or panic. Mindfulness therapy teaches paying steady attention to the present moment, which can help with stress, rumination and impulse control.

Choosing the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try approaches together and adjust what they do based on what helps. This is a collaborative way to find what best reduces upset and improves day-to-day functioning.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find remote sessions useful because they can fit therapy around work, cut down travel time and use shorter check-ins when needed. The focus is on practical support that fits into everyday life rather than long theoretical sessions.
