Jillian is incredibly empathetic, supportive and understanding. I feel truly comfortable sharing any personal details, without any fear of judgement. She has helped me build my confidence and I can already see a difference in my growth and mental health. Jillian is an amazing listener and I feel like she really hears me and validates my feelings. I am so happy that Jillian is my counselor!

More about Jillian

Hello! My name is Jill and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 9 years experience providing therapy services. I have experience conducting individual and group therapy, in-office, online and phone-based counseling in both inpatient and outpatient settings. Throughout my career, I’ve worked with adults managing depression, anxiety, trauma, anger, self-esteem, addiction and a wide range of challenges including grief/loss, trouble sleeping, relationship & family stressors and difficulty adjusting to life changes.

Originally from New York, I moved to Chicago in 2010 to pursue my graduate degree from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology. I absolutely loved Chicago but I am thrilled to be back living in the New York area.

My approach to therapy is warm, kind-hearted and a collective mix of client centered, existential and cognitive behavioral interventions. I believe people should always be treated with respect and compassion, especially when navigating life's obstacles. Through a client centered lens, I believe people are considered experts in their own life and determine the path they desire. I incorporate Victor Frankl’s quote to explain existentialism: “to live is to also suffer, but to survive is to find meaning in the suffering.” Together we will process and incorporate meaning into life’s changes and stressors through each client’s unique road of self-discovery. Through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I aim to assist clients in exploring relationships between thoughts, feelings, behaviors to ultimately alter unhelpful patterns into a positive, productive and healthy mindset. My ultimate goal will be for you to leave each session feeling more at ease, confident, and empowered in your life. We will work together to help you get back to the best version of yourself. I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions. Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
