About Jill

Jill Malcolm is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship worries and changes in motivation or self‑esteem. She uses a calm, straightforward style to make it easier to talk about difficult feelings. Jill aims to create an open atmosphere where thoughts can be said without fear of judgement.

Her background includes three years of professional work and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Jill draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice and accept painful thoughts while focusing on values and action. She also uses attachment‑based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns.

Sessions are client‑centred and paced around each person’s needs, with mindfulness practices offered when helpful for stress and emotional regulation. These simple exercises can be used between meetings to manage low moods or anxious moments.

Jill has worked with a broad range of concerns beyond anxiety and depression, including grief, eating and body image worries, codependency, ADHD and issues around intimacy and communication. She supports people dealing with life transitions such as separation or bereavement and those coping with long‑term illness.

If someone is unsure where to begin, Jill helps identify practical next steps and priorities in early sessions. She encourages small, manageable goals so progress feels achievable and relevant to everyday life.

How Jill’s approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts and take actions that match their values rather than being driven by worry or avoidance. It can help with anxiety, low mood and difficulty moving forward after life changes. Attachment‑based therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and communication, which is useful for intimacy and trust issues. Client‑centred work focuses on the person in front of the therapist, offering understanding and a non‑judgemental space to talk through problems. Finding the best approach is part of the work together. Jill will discuss goals and preferences and then try plain, practical tools to see what fits. That might include short mindfulness exercises, values‑based tasks or ways to reflect on relationship patterns. Decisions about approach are collaborative and reviewed as progress continues. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Many people choose online therapy because it can fit around work, family and travel more easily. Online sessions can make it simpler to schedule regular meetings, reduce travel time and allow for brief check‑ins when needed. Discussing practicalities early helps shape a plan that fits everyday life and keeps the focus on clear, realistic steps.
