About Jyl

Jyl Adams is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and parenting challenges. She aims to create a calm, practical space where clients can talk through what feels hardest and learn steps that make daily life easier. She brings 17 years of experience and a strengths-based attitude to each session.

Jyl listens first, then works with clients to set clear, achievable goals.

Background and approach

She emphasizes teamwork so people feel supported while trying new skills and strategies. Jyl uses a mix of approaches that fit each person’s needs. She draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to shift unhelpful thinking, client-centered methods to keep the conversation focused on the person, and Gottman Method principles when relationship patterns are part of the concern.

Mindfulness and attachment-based ideas also inform her work when useful. Her background includes a Bachelor of Social Work from the University of Nevada, Reno and a Master of Social Work from Boise State University. She has practiced in Idaho and Nevada and previously ran a independent practice for eleven years.

In sessions she offers concrete tools and short-term strategies for coping, along with longer-term work on communication and self-worth. People often come for help with parenting, adoption and foster care questions, mood concerns, life changes, and building stronger relationships. Jyl’s style is direct but warm.

She helps clients break problems into manageable steps and tracks progress toward the goals they name.

Online support

Approaches and online therapy that fit your life

Jyl commonly uses the Gottman Method approach to look at how partners interact, identify unhelpful patterns, and build better communication and connection. Gottman ideas are useful when relationship dynamics and repeated conflicts are part of the concern.

She also draws on attachment-based therapy, which centers on how early and current relationship patterns shape trust and closeness. This approach can help when attachment issues, adoption and foster care questions, or long-standing communication problems affect daily life.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Jyl works with each person to identify goals and then tests methods to see what helps most. She adjusts tools and pacing based on what the client finds most helpful and practical.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video works well for in-depth conversations and relationship work, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat and text are convenient for brief check-ins or coaching-style support. These options make it easier to connect around work, parenting, or other commitments while continuing steady progress.
