Meet Jill Mills

Qualified Counsellor & Psychotherapist 

I am a fully qualified counsellor and psychotherapist registered with the Australian Counselling Association (ACA). I have a Bachelor of Health Sciences/Master of Rehabilitation Counselling, 2011 (University of Sydney) and Master of Counselling and Applied Psychotherapy, 2013 (Jansen Newman Institute).

Experienced in working with adults on an individual or group basis who are experiencing a variety of issues and difficulties. I have a wide variety of both professional and life experience, from bereavement, depression, anxiety, low mood, low self-esteem, negative childhood experiences, relationship and sexual issues, to work related issues and substance misuse.

My goal is to work with you to help you achieve a happier life, providing you with strategies, so you continue to benefit from our sessions after they have ended. Whether you are currently in a crisis or wanting to address an ongoing issue, I can help you to explore an alternative way of being, enabling you to live a fulfilling and meaningful life.

About

I provide a confidential, safe and non-judgemental space for you to talk through your problems and difficulties. This may be indoors, outdoors, online or on the phone. I work as an integrative therapist, integrating elements from different modalities of psychotherapy best suited to you and your needs. I work holistically integrating mind, body and spirit to understand how all these factors influence your ability to live the best life you can.

Why walk & talk therapy?

Working with a therapist can be a life changing experience. I believe that some people would never consider therapy and therefore never experience the benefits of therapy, as the thought of sitting in a therapy room may be too confronting for them. If this sounds like you, working therapeutically outdoors, at an accessible location could be an extremely beneficial experience for you.

I passionately believe that being outside in nature and physically moving your body has an incredibly positive impact on your emotional well-being. When you combine this with counselling and psychotherapy you can successfully work through your problems, as well as learn new strategies you can use after our therapeutic work has ended.

 

The physical act of moving reflects your emotional journey that you begin when you come to therapy. The hope is that you are able to move into a better stage of your life. I have experienced such emotional changes and health benefits, and I am passionate about helping others to find benefit too. Whether it is through walking therapy sessions, or by helping you to experience the outdoors in between our sessions indoors, my goal is to assist you in moving forward in a way

that works for you, long term.

Why walk & talk therapy

The first step to getting anywhere is deciding you're not willing to stay where you are.

What people say

“I was nervous about counselling and didn't realise how freeing being outside and having therapy could be. Thanks to Jill and being outdoors I feel like I have made progress in a shorter amount of time than I expected.”

"Jill's phone therapy allowed me to receive counselling when I might not have otherwise. Jill seems to know when to ask the right questions and uncover issues in a safe and comfortable way." 

“Jill was very easy to talk to. She is understanding, empathetic & honest. She helped me to look at things in a different light. Jill was genuinely concerned about my issues, and committed to making a difference. I found the open air and walking at my own pace comfortable.”
