About Jill

Jill Hazell is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with more than 20 years of experience helping people navigate trauma, mood disorders, relationship concerns, and everyday stressors. She has worked extensively with child abuse and trauma victims and currently provides services in a middle school setting. Over her career she has supported individuals from diverse backgrounds facing depression, anxiety, ADHD, bullying, abuse, sexual trauma, emotional harm, and other challenges related to family life and mental health.

Her counseling style is relaxed and approachable, and she is often described as supportive, caring, and compassionate with a ready sense of humor. Jill emphasizes identifying clients' strengths and building on those resources to move past obstacles. She focuses on practical strategies while inviting honest conversation and emotional expression, tailoring conversations and treatment plans to each person’s unique needs.

Jill integrates cognitive-behavioral techniques, client-centered principles, solution-focused work, and mindfulness practices to create flexible, individualized care. She welcomes those who are taking steps toward greater well-being and stands ready to offer encouragement, guidance, and empowerment as clients pursue meaningful change.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Jill uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical skills for managing mood, anxiety, and stress. CBT is useful for addressing depression, anxiety, and many day-to-day challenges by focusing on thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and how to change them.

She also employs client-centered therapy, which emphasizes empathy, active listening, and meeting each person where they are. This approach helps clients explore values, strengthen self-understanding, and build confidence at their own pace.

Mindfulness techniques are woven into sessions to support greater awareness, emotional regulation, and stress reduction. These practices can complement other work by helping clients stay grounded and respond to difficult moments with more clarity.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Jill will work with each person to determine which methods best fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, adjusting strategies as progress unfolds.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or limited mobility. These formats make it easier to access regular support and to continue therapeutic work from different locations while maintaining continuity with a licensed professional.
