About Jillanne
Jillanne Hecker is a licensed mental health counselor who practices in Florida and brings six years of experience to her work. She holds LPCC and LMHC credentials and focuses on practical support for people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and related concerns. Her sessions aim to be calm and direct.
She helps people sort through what feels overwhelming and identify small, manageable steps forward. Communication skills, rebuilding self-esteem, and coping strategies are common focuses in her work.
Background and approach
Jillanne uses several evidence-informed methods to guide sessions, including cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness practices. She also draws on dialectical behavior strategies and EMDR when those approaches fit a person's situation. Treatment choices are explained plainly and adjusted to match each person's goals.
People often come with life transitions, workplace stress, relationship problems, or complicated grief. Jillanne listens for practical patterns that keep problems recurring, then tests simple changes that can reduce distress. She pays attention to a person’s values and background when planning next steps.
Sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging for flexibility. Conversations tend to be collaborative and goal-oriented, with an emphasis on skills people can use between sessions to handle tough moments.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
CBT, or cognitive behavioral therapy, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It helps people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try small behavioral experiments to reduce anxiety or depressive symptoms.EMDR, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, is used to process distressing memories and reduce their emotional intensity. In sessions this may involve guided attention tasks paired with talking through memories to lessen their hold on daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Jillanne will discuss goals, past efforts, and preferences, then recommend which methods to try first. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging to make therapy fit into busy routines. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for skills practice and EMDR-style work. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth or camera use is difficult. Live chat and text messaging support shorter check-ins, mood tracking, and between-session coaching when a full session isn’t needed.
