Jillian supports clients of all ages in remedying anything that may be keeping them from reaching their highest potential and/or expanding upon what is already working in their lives. She sincerely believes that each individual, no matter their age or life experience(s), innately has the answers within to overcome/succeed/heal/prosper - while working from a trauma-safe, mind-body approach.
Each session is focused on simply drawing that inner wisdom. We utilize that wisdom and a whole-brain-and-whole-body approach to foster optimal results through somatic and attachment interventions, play therapy, clinical hypnotherapy, trauma and nervous system healing, and more.
​
Jillian partners with clients from all walks of life, looking to overcome various blocks/triggers from a trauma-informed attachment lens, by utilizing Somatic Approaches to Healing Trauma ( including Somatic Experiencing (SE™ )), Dynamic Attachment Re-patterning experience (DARe™), Clinical Hypnotherapy and Guided Imagery, Transformational & Advanced Empowerment 'Life' Coaching, Child-Centered & Synergetic Play Therapy™, Internal Family Systems (IFS™), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT™). She is an Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (SEP™) as well as an assistant in their training program. She provides personal sessions and consultations for SE students that count towards their requirements to earning the designation of becoming and SEP. She also holds the the designation of a DARE™ Practitioner and assists in their trainings and provides personal sessions and consultation for that program training as well.
Jillian is trained as Clinical Trauma Specialist (for both individuals and families), and is also an IFS™ -informed Therapist. In addition, is also Level 1 & 2 trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy. She utilizes the various resources and perspectives of each of these modalities, in addition to other Trauma Therapy Training(s), Bibliotherapy, Holistic Nutrition, Aromatherapy training, EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique AKA Tapping), and more to support and resource her clients.
Some of the areas Jillian specializes in are as follows: supporting those with anxiety/depression (including PPA/PPD), trauma (including PTSD/C-PTSD), grief, fear, problem habits, challenges with focus/attention, giftedness and profound giftedness, neurodivergence (including ADHD & Autism), self-mastery, health challenges and more. She has a passion and a special interest in supporting women, parents, and children/adolescents.
With Hypnotherapy (AKA Guided Imagery), Jillian integrates your own truth and clarity that we arrive to through Empowerment Coaching during your session(s). This allows for each experience you have to be fully customized to your exact needs. In addition, Jillian specializes in Clinical Hypnotherapy and doing trauma-informed/trained "root-work" that allows the innate intelligence of the client's subconscious and nervous system to lead the way. This ensures the process is done in the most harmonious/beneficial manner possible.
With Play Therapy, a safe and therapeutic space is held for the child to play through their inner challenges in order to meet a deeper sense of harmony within themselves - which reflects in their interactions in the world. Jillian has certificates in both Child-Centered Play Therapy and Synergetic Play Therapy and training in other play modalities (including the cross-section of play and the other modalities she is trained/certified in). These therapies support resolution of unprocessed emotions, unmet needs, and traumas that create unhelpful thoughts, feelings, behaviors, beliefs (etc.) - thereby resourcing all brain states while incorporating Somatic (body) Healing approaches for more full integration and regulation within the nervous system. ​

All that is really required from the client of any age is a desire to move towards whatever it is that they would like to accomplish. The rest we will work through together.
