Accessibility Statement
Last updated: May 2026
Our Commitment
Jill Sumiyasu, LMFT, doing business as A Better Life with Jill, is committed to making jillstherapy.com accessible to as many people as possible, including people with disabilities. We believe everyone deserves access to clear information about therapy and mental health services.
We work to align this Site with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level AA, which is the standard recommended by the World Wide Web Consortium and widely referenced under the Americans with Disabilities Act.
What We Have Done
Steps we have taken to support accessibility on the Site include:
Providing a "Skip to Content" link at the top of every page so keyboard and screen reader users can bypass the navigation.
Writing descriptive alternative text for meaningful images so they are understandable to screen reader users.
Using descriptive page titles and headings to support easier navigation.
Choosing color and contrast combinations intended to be readable across a range of vision needs.
Reviewing the Site periodically to identify and fix accessibility issues as they arise.
Ongoing Work
Accessibility is an ongoing effort, not a one-time project. We are continuing to review and improve the Site, and we recognize that some content may not yet meet every accessibility standard. We use the Squarespace platform to publish the Site, and some accessibility behavior depends on Squarespace's underlying templates and features.
If you find a part of the Site that is difficult to use, please let us know. Your feedback helps us prioritize improvements.

Scope
This statement applies to jillstherapy.com. The Site links to third-party services such as SimplePractice (for the client portal) and YouTube (for embedded videos). Those third-party services are operated independently and have their own accessibility practices, which we do not control.
