More about Jillian
- 5 years' experience
- Female
- LMFT
I help clients unpack their sadness, grief, frustrations, fears, and feelings of stagnation or "being stuck," and I support clients in finding and discovering their authentic selves and dreams. I help clients to cultivate personal growth and improve relationships. I explore family dynamics, relationship patterns, negative belief systems, underlying feelings, and future goals. I am here to help clients gain insight and to give clients an experience of being heard and understood. I am here to help you explore, untangle, process, and discover your truth. I work with clients collaboratively to learn effective ways of coping.
