About Jill
LMHC Jill Burchenal has 22 years of experience as a licensed mental health counselor in Florida. She focuses on addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting stress, anger, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, and career and life transitions. Jill uses client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, emotionally-focused methods, existential ideas, and motivational interviewing in her practice.
Jill centers sessions on practical conversation and problem-solving. She listens for what matters most to each person and then uses conversational techniques to identify patterns and options. That can mean looking at thoughts and behaviors, examining relational patterns, or working through motivation and values to find next steps.
In addiction and codependency work, Jill draws on motivational interviewing and cognitive behavioral approaches to help people clarify goals and reduce harmful patterns. For grief and trauma she combines emotionally-focused and client-centered ways of talking so emotions are named and processed at a comfortable pace. Existential themes come into play when people are facing major life changes or questions about meaning.
Jill has spent many years in private practice and has treated a wide range of concerns including adult children of alcoholics, shame, and compassion fatigue. Her background emphasizes steady, practical help rather than quick fixes. She offers referrals when a different fit would better serve a person’s needs.
Sessions start with a brief assessment of immediate priorities and then move to focused work on coping skills, relationship patterns, or decision points. The approach is collaborative and flexible, shaped by each person’s goals and circumstances.

Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting. The therapist follows the person's lead, clarifies concerns, and supports the person in finding their own solutions. This approach helps when someone needs space to talk through feelings and choices.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, emotions, and behaviors connect. It uses short, practical exercises to shift unhelpful thinking and build coping skills, which can help with anxiety, depression, and behavioral patterns tied to addiction.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on identifying and expressing core emotions and improving relational responses. It is useful for intimacy and relationship issues where patterns of interaction keep repeating.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, adjusting methods as needed during sessions.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since the biography does not list specific formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow for focused check-ins between other commitments. Ask about available session types when you schedule so arrangements match your day-to-day needs.
