About Jill
Jill Malcolm is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She works with adults who are carrying guilt or shame alongside stress, anxiety, relationship strains and self-esteem concerns. Jill also supports people facing grief, eating and mood difficulties, life changes and questions around identity and intimacy.
In sessions she keeps conversation straightforward and practical. She uses client-centred ways of working to listen first and help people name what matters most. Mindfulness techniques are offered to help with grounding when feelings feel overwhelming.
Jill draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice painful thoughts without letting them dictate every choice. Attachment-based ideas are used when patterns from early relationships show up in current conflicts or closeness issues. She explains approaches simply and checks in about what feels useful.
People can expect short, clear conversations about what they want to change and simple experiments to try between sessions. Jill pays attention to patterns such as avoidance, people-pleasing or control struggles and helps clients consider different ways of responding.
The focus is on practical steps people can try, and on understanding how past experiences affect present choices. Jill asks about goals and adapts sessions to what a person can realistically manage in daily life.
How Jill’s approaches translate to online work
Jill uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice difficult thoughts and to choose actions that fit their values rather than being driven by shame or guilt. ACT focuses on small, practical steps and learning to live alongside painful feelings rather than trying to fight them.She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and intimacy. This approach helps identify repeating patterns such as avoidance or fear of abandonment and considers different ways of relating that feel safer and more honest.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jill treats the choice of method as collaborative and checks what feels most helpful for each person. She discusses goals and adapts techniques so they fit a person's preferences and life circumstances.
