About Me

Welcome! I'm Jill. I am a psychotherapist in private practice in San Diego, and I truly enjoy working with others. My work integrates client-centered care with evidence-based practices. I specialize in creating a foundational and practical approach to trauma therapy, helping clients achieve and maintain personal growth.

My practice offers clients brain-based education to understand their experiences and vagus nerve skills for nervous system regulation. Some of my other work includes leading trainings for other mental health professionals; I enjoy teaching integrative approaches to therapy that combine the mind and body. I have been a psychotherapist for 16 years, and I have been offering EMDR therapy for 10 years.
