About Jill
Jill Longshore is a Licensed Independent Social Worker with Clinical Practice (LISW-CP) in South Carolina and has 24 years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, and depression. She also supports people facing adoption or foster care concerns and age-related challenges.
Her sessions focus on clear, practical steps. She listens to what is most pressing and helps people break problems into manageable parts. She offers concrete skills for coping with isolation, seasonal mood changes, and substance use concerns.
Jill draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address communication problems, control issues, and problems tied to guilt, shame, or forgiveness. She helps clients think through relationship and separation questions and plans for smoking or vaping cessation when that is part of the work.
Over two decades of practice have included work with first responder stress and with people dealing with sexual assault and abuse. Her approach emphasizes steady progress through small changes and repeated practice rather than quick fixes.
Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are not accepted. Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online options button.
Evidence-based approaches and online session planning
Jill uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing patterns of thinking and behavior and on developing practical coping skills. One approach helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test them against real situations to reduce anxiety and social fear. Another approach emphasizes building new behavioral routines through small, repeated steps to address avoidance, substance use, or mood symptoms.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Jill will discuss options and help decide which methods fit a person’s goals and daily life. The selection of techniques is collaborative and can shift as progress is made.
The therapist context does not specify session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten check-ins when time is limited, or avoid travel to appointments. Licensed professionals can use remote sessions to focus on skill practice, problem-solving, and follow-up between meetings while considering what works best for scheduling and attention.
