About Jillian
Jillian Sharp is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and a Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner (LIMHP) with three years of clinical experience. She practices from Nebraska and works with adults on stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem, depression, coping with life changes, relationship concerns, family issues, trauma and abuse, eating and career questions, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. She also lists blended family issues among her focus areas.
Jillian uses a relationship-focused, client-centered style. She listens first and helps people name what feels most urgent. Sessions tend to be practical and conversational. She draws on plain tools that can be used between meetings rather than dense theory alone.
Her approach includes cognitive behavioral ideas for shifting patterns of thinking and feeling. She also uses emotionally-focused techniques to look at how important relationships affect mood and behavior. Mindfulness and existential perspectives appear when people are sorting values, meaning, and life direction.
Clients can expect a reflective session where the conversation aims to clarify choices and next steps. Jillian pays attention to how past losses or trauma shape current relationships. She helps people practice concrete strategies for stress, impulse control, body image, and communication problems.
Her work is geared toward adults managing life transitions, separation or divorce, adoption and foster care questions, caregiver stress, and the practical pressures of blended households. Jillian encourages steady, realistic progress and checks in about what is working between sessions.
How Jillian blends approaches for online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on respectful listening and following the person's lead. It helps when someone needs a calm place to sort priorities and feel heard. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts influence feelings and actions and offers step-by-step tools for anxiety, depression, and habit change. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) explores how relationships shape feelings and reactions and can help people notice patterns that keep them stuck.Choosing the best approach is part of the work together. Jillian will discuss your goals and preferences and suggest methods to try. Over a few sessions she checks what helps and adjusts the plan so it fits your needs and life demands.
The original profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into work, caretaking, and travel schedules. Some formats can make check-ins shorter, reduce the need for video, or let you have sessions from different locations when that matches your routine. Licensed professionals guide how often to meet and what structure will best support progress.
