Review №1

Being an immigrant, It was not normal for me to talk about emotions growing up. It caused problems with my wife which made me look for a therapist. I began seeing Jillian since the Pandemic started and It wasnt easy trusting someone especially where Im from. But Jillians approach and passion for how she implements her techniques made me feel safe and motivated to come back and want to improve the communication with my wife. I always noticed that Jillian was so dedicated and attentive in sessions and has a natural passion to support her clients towards them achieving their goals.

When I first started therapy with Jillian, I immediately felt a connection and understood. After everything Ive gone through, my feelings felt validated and heard. She helped me with my codependency and establish boundaries. Something I never learned. It helped me not only grow personally but professionally as well as increase my self-esteem and not tolerate the bare minimum in romantic relationships.

Being in therapy for over 10 years, trying therapist after therapist, I began to believe I would struggle with mental illness my whole life and suffer from the trauma I endured growing up. Jillians endless positivity continuously gave me hope every week. Her unique therapeutic approach is not only real but feels sincere and genuine. Out of all the treatment Ive been in, sessions with Jillian really felt that she was there because she genuinely wanted to see me get better. I can not thank her enough for helping me overcome my trauma.

I have a history of substance abuse issues and during covid... I get extremely emotional about this story but. Jillian literally saved my life from overdosing. My parents via FaceTime were so impressed by her clinical expertise and judgement to assist us through the process, I can not thank her enough for saving my life.

For someone that is working with many people struggling with mental illnesses, she is very inconsiderate. I had decided to try her out, and after the first time she did not show up I made the choice to part ways, but decided to give her another chance. After agreeing to set up another appointment, the day of the appointment comes and she is MIA, not answering my texts or emails. I reached out to reschedule multiple times, as I understand things come up, but to this day I havent heard back from her. 0/10 would recommend.

I have been a client of Jillians for 2 years now and have experienced mental and physical change in my life and outlook on life that I would never have been able to accomplish alone. The way she takes her time to really listen before addressing a situation and is attentive to finding a solution that is manageable, is impressive. We have worked together to set goals both short and long term and the utmost importance of our sessions is I trust her completely. She makes it easy to deal with traumatic life issues and makes me feel I am never alone when faced with an obstacle. Plus, her office is really cool, very clean and welcoming!

I had scheduled my first appointment with her and she had to reschedule twice and the third stood me up! I had an appointment to meet with her and she never met me in the reception nor return any of my calls or text messages. I literally waited for her for 40 mins. What a waste of time. - that is hilarious because your assistant Jennifer was the one who scheduled the appointment for me! And you even said you were going to meet me in the lobby. I called and texted you. All you did was forward my call and read my text message.

[Update on 7/25/2018,As a therapist, is it fair to accuse of a client of Hx(or say if I did and for you to reveal that) because of different feedback? All my comments about you was strictly regarding your professionalism Jillian, not personal.]Original Review:Please be thorough with your research before committing to Jillian.The first session was information gathering, Jillian was helpful and asked a lot of question and came up with a plan and answered all questions I had. Then after a week, I went in for my first therapy session, it was so awkward and rushed that I felt horrible walking out. The total session was supposed to be 45min, she had me write something for 15min and cut me off at 30min to schedule next appointment. I had to tell her the time is not up yet and she awkwardly apologized and sat around for like 8 min and asked me if i had any more question for her.So now to the actual 15min consultation we had - it was worse. She didnt seem to remember anything from our first info-gather meeting and asked me scattered questions that were asked before.Im really disappointed and canceled all future meetings with her. It is very unprofessional if a therapist cant even commit to a full session. Id think someone would at least put more effort with a new client if not consistent. Mind you I walked in ready to commit to a 6-month plan and walked out relived that I didnt.I really hope this is a one-off thing and she does something about it. But for me the experience was so bad that Im not going back.

My wife and I sought out Jillians help for couples therapy. We were really struggling and Jillian was able to get our marriage back to where it was when we first met. I am so grateful we met Jillian and she gave us the tools to get through a rough patch. Her professionalism and expertise is something all therapists should display.
