About Jill

Jill Malcolm helps people work through stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, and problems with self-esteem and motivation. She uses conversational counselling and mindfulness-based ideas to help clients notice unhelpful thoughts and try different ways of responding. Jill is registered with the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and has three years of professional experience.

Her approach is patient and practical. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take small steps that match what matters to them. She also uses client-centred methods to prioritise what each person brings and to shape sessions around their immediate concerns.

Jill works with issues that include intimacy and relationship difficulties, grief, eating concerns, depression, coping with life changes and ADHD. Additional areas she addresses are attachment-related problems, communication and commitment issues, body image, codependency and problems that arise after separation or divorce.

Sessions include talking through difficult feelings and trying simple exercises in awareness and acceptance. Mindfulness techniques may be used to reduce reactivity and increase calm. Jill explains ideas clearly and helps people practise skills between sessions when that feels useful.

She offers counselling in English and accepts international clients. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, select the Talk to a counsellor online button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.

How her approaches work in online counselling

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people identify what matters to them and take small steps towards those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and motivation problems.

Client-centred counselling focuses on the person in front of the counsellor, using open listening and reflection to help them make sense of their feelings and choices. This approach suits conversations about relationships, self-esteem and life transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Jill will discuss options with each person and help agree which methods to try based on their needs, goals and preferences. The work is collaborative and adaptable as issues change over time.

Practical benefits of online counselling include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. Different session arrangements can make it easier to have shorter check-ins, choose audio rather than video when that is more comfortable, or plan sessions around work or family commitments. Confirm the actual session formats available before booking so you know what will be offered.
