01About Jill
Jill Sexton is a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, mood changes, and relationship struggles. She works with parents coping with the demands of raising children, people facing grief or trauma, and those sorting out identity and life-purpose questions.

Jill draws on 18 years of experience in counseling. She uses practical, evidence-informed methods to help clients notice patterns, try new behaviors, and build skills for handling strong emotions.
Background and approach
Sessions tend to focus on clear goals and small, doable steps that fit everyday life. She pays particular attention to attachment and family-of-origin issues. That means looking at how past relationships affect current reactions and closeness.
Jill also supports people dealing with adoption and foster-care-related concerns, abandonment, codependency, and communication problems. Her work includes approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered methods. Those approaches are used to address things like anger, compassion fatigue, ADHD challenges, and career stress.
Jill adapts her style to match each person's needs rather than following a single script. Jill earned her degrees at Auburn University and Auburn University Montgomery. She practices in Alabama and offers sessions in English.
Many clients find her calm, practical tone helpful when life feels overwhelming.

04Online support
Approach-focused care delivered online
Jill commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy in her online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then take steps toward what matters most. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns, helping people change how they relate and connect with others.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Jill works collaboratively to pick or combine methods based on a person's goals, struggles, and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts plans so the work stays relevant and practical.
Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful when visual connection matters, while phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat and text messaging make it easier to check in between sessions or to have shorter, frequent touchpoints. These options give flexibility for different schedules and communication styles, while keeping the focus on real progress in everyday life.
