New to Grow
My name is Jill Winklevoss. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and I have been working in the mental health field for more than 20 years. I am passionate about helping people get their emotions under control so that they can function at a level that they are comfortable with. I specialize in anxiety, anger management, trauma, depression, PTSD and many other mental health issues. I use EMDR, tf-CBT, CBT, DBT, Person-centered approaches and Solution Focused therapy. I can offer a biblically based approach to those who desire that as well. I have an extensive history working with children and parents who have travelled the adoption, foster care journey. I would love to work with You! I am available on video and in person.
Our first session will be an "Intake" session. I will review with you some of the standards of counseling and we will gather all of your biographical information. Once that has been collected, we will be able to begin working on your problem and figuring out how we will achieve your goals.
My approach is very client centered. I do not force my clients to talk about anything they are not ready to talk about. I want you to be as comfortable as possible when you share information with me.
I work best with people who are struggling with grief, depression, anxiety or trauma. I have worked with professionals in the past who have stressful jobs and have helped them deal with work stress. I love to work with people who are adopted, or have adopted, or are currently involved in the foster care process. I love to work with people who are wanting to make a better life for themself.
