About Jill

Jill Corbey is a counsellor credentialed with NCPS in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, trauma, grief and anger, and supports people dealing with parenting and family-related pressures. Sessions are conducted in English and Jill accepts international clients.

Jill keeps conversations straightforward and practical. She uses clear talking and active listening to help people identify what feels most urgent at home or work. She offers strategies for managing strong emotions, improving sleep and eating patterns, and coping with life changes such as bereavement or family transitions.

Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to notice difficult thoughts and shift unhelpful patterns. Attachment-based ideas are used when relationship history matters. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy skills are offered for distress tolerance and emotional regulation when these are needed.

People who come for support may get short exercises to try between sessions. Jill outlines what might help, then talks it through with the client to see what is realistic. She also works with issues linked to adoption and foster care, autism and attachment, and complex grief responses.

Jill describes her work as respectful and sensitive. She asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Practical arrangements, including session length and subscription details, are set up during that initial step.

How sessions work

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and decide what matters to them. Online ACT sessions usually include simple exercises to practise noticing feelings and choosing actions that reflect personal values. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and trying small behavioural changes. In an online session this can mean working through thought records, planning experiments, and agreeing on short tasks between meetings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jill will discuss your goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. That choice is made together and can change as progress is reviewed.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking, because the profile does not list formats. Many people find online sessions fit into their day more easily and make regular check-ins possible. Online work can make it simpler to use worksheets in the moment, fit a short session during a lunch break, or avoid travel time. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises so they work well in a remote setting, and practical steps are agreed together at the start of therapy.
