Hello, my name is Jillian, a Licensed Counselor in Pennsylvania. I'm so grateful you found your way here. I sincerely honor the courage it takes to seek support, and meet each person where they are with dignity, compassion, and non-judgment. Seriously, it takes a lot of courage to take this step. I am passionate about working with women at different stages of life who identify as successful in many areas, yet feel insecure about how they 'measure up' against the societal expectations of "womanhood". Does this feel like you: you are independent, smart, successful, creative, loving, nurturing, and passionate about helping any community you're apart of; yet you still feel something is missing because you are not partnered, married, or have children? Do you struggle with the decision to be partnered, married, or to have children and find yourself alienated from friends, family, and specific communities because of this? Do you live within a family system or religious community that has rigid conceptualizations of what womanhood is and have been subjected to unsolicited advice and/or criticism about what a "real woman is". I offer a safe space where women who have these experiences and in response are struggling with insecurities, self esteem, body image, or depression and anxiety can explore the expansiveness of womanhood in all its manifestations and be empowered to make decisions that align with how they desire to embody their identity and life experiences.
