About Judith
Judith Hill is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 20 years of clinical experience. She practices narrative-informed therapy combined with practical tools to help people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, and life transitions. Judith works in Michigan and offers sessions in English.
She frames problems as stories that can be re-read and reshaped. That perspective helps people separate themselves from painful events and see choices they might have missed. Judith blends narrative ideas with cognitive-behavioral techniques and acceptance-based strategies to build coping skills and new habits.

Judith has long experience supporting people wrestling with trauma, substance use concerns, relationship struggles, and parenting strain. She also helps with intimacy and attachment issues, codependency, body image, and career-related stress.

Narrative Therapy in this listing
Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how she works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.

Online session options
Narrative, ACT, and attachment-focused work online
Judith often combines Narrative Therapy with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based ideas. Narrative Therapy helps people look at the stories they tell about themselves and consider alternate plots that allow more choice and agency. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters most and practicing small actions that reflect those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. Attachment-Based work looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people notice how early connection styles affect current trust, intimacy, and conflict.Finding the right approach is a shared process. Judith will listen to your goals and try different ways of working until you find what fits. She checks in regularly about what is helping and adjusts tools and conversation to match your needs and preferences.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video works well for in-depth conversation and skill practice. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or when people prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter check-ins, written reflection, and support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and varied lifestyles.
