About Jillian John

I am a registered clinical social worker intern with over ten years of experience in the child welfare system. I work with children, adolescents, and adults of all ages, providing a warm, safe and supportive space where clients can truly feel seen, heard and empowered. I specialize in supporting women navigating the postpartum journey, as well as survivors of domestic violence. For clients who desire it, I also offer faith-based Christian counseling, integrating biblical truth with evidence-based therapeutic practices to support emotional, relationship and spiritual healing.

In Christian-based therapy, I welcome prayer, scripture, and a Christ-centered perspective into the therapeutic process, tailed to each client’s personal faith journey and comfort level. Whether someone is working through trauma, relational pain, spiritual doubt or life transitions, I aim to help clients experience the hope, grace and renewal found in their identity in Christ. My goal is to create space for clients to explore how their faith can be a resource for healing, strength and transformation.

My clinical approach is collaborative and individualized. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), insight oriented work, strengths-based therapy, and solution-focused techniques. I also integrate emotion-focused, attachment-based, and narrative therapy to help client explore their stories with honesty and courage.

My goal is to walk alongside each client in their journey toward personal growth, self understanding, and emotional resilience. I believe in giving power to your story so that you may embrace all parts of yourself to live more authentically and freely.

It’s a true privilege to be invited into the most vulnerable areas of a person’s life, and I approach that responsibility with care, kindness and respect.
