About Jill

Jill Malcolm is a BACP-registered counsellor with three years of professional experience based in the United Kingdom. She works with people who are finding stress, anxiety and relationship matters hard to manage and who want more confidence and clearer motivation. Jill also supports clients with grief, eating concerns, ADHD and other life changes.

In sessions she focuses on clear, practical conversation. Jill uses client-centred methods to listen and reflect what is said, helping people notice patterns in thoughts and behaviour. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to help people identify values and take manageable steps towards them.

Jill draws on attachment-based thinking to look at how early relationships affect present reactions. Mindfulness practices are offered as simple skills to reduce rumination and to steady attention in difficult moments. The work blends talking with short exercises and everyday tasks to try between meetings.

People can expect a calm, direct style and straightforward suggestions they can try at home. Jill encourages working at a practical pace and checking in about what helps and what does not. She supports international clients in English and explains session arrangements before the first appointment.

To begin, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule an initial session. Payments use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time, with fees varying by location.

How her approaches translate to online counselling

Jill uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values, which can be useful for anxiety and motivation problems. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to look at how early relationships shape reactions now, helping people understand patterns in relationships and trust.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jill treats this as a collaborative process and will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs to decide which methods to focus on together. She checks in regularly and adapts plans based on what helps the client most.

Please confirm the session formats before booking so you know what is offered for online work. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people try mindfulness exercises and ACT tasks in real-life settings between meetings, which can help put learning into practice.
