About Jill
Jill Hazzard is a Florida LMHC with 35 years of professional experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, family and parenting concerns, and depression. Jill also supports people facing relationship and intimacy challenges, grief, trauma, and life changes.
Her style centers on listening first. She starts by asking what matters most to the person and then uses straightforward conversations to identify practical steps. Jill adapts the pace and focus so sessions address immediate problems as well as longer term patterns.
She uses approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes. Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Solution-Focused techniques are used when clients need skills for emotion regulation or short-term goal planning. Internal Family Systems ideas are included when looking at internal parts and how they affect decisions and relationships.
Jill has worked in a range of settings during her career and brings that breadth to her clinical work. She helps people talk through family conflict, parenting strain, and issues around mood and attention. Sessions aim to be practical, with clear steps to try between meetings.
People who prefer direct, steady guidance tend to find her approach useful. She asks questions, reflects what she hears, and suggests concrete strategies to practice. To begin, she invites prospective clients to describe their current concerns and what they hope to change.
How her approaches translate to online work
Jill draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice patterns of thought and try small behavior changes that can reduce anxiety and improve daily functioning. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep sessions focused on what the client feels is most important, offering reflective listening and practical problem discussion. Dialectical Behavior Therapy is used when learning emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills can help with intense emotions or relationship strain.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Jill works together with each person to decide which methods match their goals and preferences. That collaboration means techniques can be adjusted over time based on what helps most.
