About Jillian
Jillian Meher is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in New Jersey with 11 years of experience. She works with adults on a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, eating and body-image issues, trauma and grief, and the stresses that come with life transitions.
Jillian focuses on practical skills and steady progress. She draws from Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and EMDR in her work. Sessions aim to identify manageable steps, challenge unhelpful thoughts, and build emotion-regulation skills to handle everyday pressures.
Many clients come for help with relationships, family problems, intimacy issues, and parenting stress. Jillian also supports people dealing with career stress, feelings of abandonment or attachment difficulties, codependency, and anger. She works with people concerned about disordered eating and body image, helping them find healthier patterns and a calmer relationship with food.
Her style is direct and nonjudgmental. Jillian checks in regularly with clients to see what is working and adjusts interventions as needed. Therapy routines often include behavioral experiments, thought records, and DBT skills practice when relevant.
Sessions are conducted in English. She does not work with international clients. Cost varies by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To start, select the See online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting to help people clarify their goals and values. It helps when someone needs a steady, respectful place to talk through stress, relationship questions, or doubts about next steps.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. It uses practical exercises such as thought records and behavioral experiments to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful habits. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness that can be practiced between sessions.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. Jillian will discuss options with each person, try interventions, and adjust based on what helps most. That way the work matches a client's goals and preferences rather than sticking to a single method.
The practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy week. Online work can make it simpler to maintain regular check-ins, practice skills between meetings, and continue therapy during relocation or life changes. Session formats are not specified in the profile, so confirm current options before booking. Licensed professionals can help pick a format and pacing that suit daily routines and commitments.
