About Jill

Jill Martin is a counsellor registered as NCPS in the United Kingdom with 17 years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and life changes. She also offers support around relationship and family concerns, grief, eating and intimacy-related issues, mood disorders, and behavioural problems listed in her speciality areas.

Jill uses a client-centred style that treats the person as the expert in their own life. She draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to help spot unhelpful thinking patterns. Mindfulness exercises and motivational interviewing tools are part of her practical toolkit when people need help making changes.

Sessions focus on clear, small steps and on what is useful right now. Jill listens for strengths and builds on them. She offers straightforward strategies for coping, reducing distress, and managing cravings or compulsive behaviours.

Her background includes extensive work with people affected by trauma, process addictions, panic and phobias, and issues linked to life transitions such as divorce and bereavement. She has supported first responders, veterans, and those facing end-of-life concerns during her career.

Language of work is English and she does not take international clients. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To start, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and then schedules a first session.

How Jill uses talking therapies online

Client-Centred Therapy emphasises the person’s own perspective and priorities. In practice this means Jill listens for strengths and preferences, then shapes sessions around what the person finds most useful. This approach helps with low self-esteem, life changes, grief and relationship strains.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. Jill uses simple CBT exercises to reduce anxiety, manage panic or shift patterns that feed depression and obsessive behaviours. Mindfulness Therapy uses short attention exercises and breathing work to help manage stress and reduce reactivity during difficult moments.

Choosing an approach is part of the work together. Jill will discuss options and adapt methods based on a person’s goals and what they prefer. That collaborative decision-making helps match techniques to the problem at hand rather than following a fixed plan.

Session formats are not specified in her biography, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example shorter check-ins during a work break, not needing to travel, or avoiding video when bandwidth is limited. Registered or accredited professionals commonly use these practical benefits to keep therapy manageable alongside everyday commitments.
