Work with Dr. Jill
Over the past 20+ years in private practice, I have developed an integrated, relationship-based approach to my work with children, teenagers, and their parents. I believe that all children are born with unique neurobiological and temperamental systems, primed to form strong attachments to their caretakers. Each child’s exquisite make-up is present from the moment of birth. Some of these children are what we’d call “easy” or “typically developing” children. Others are more intense, sensitive, and reactive. And just like every child, all parents have their own unique neurobiological and temperamental system. The key to developing a strong relationship with your child is to understand how to create the best “fit.”
Parent Coaching
In addition to her therapy services, Dr. Jill offers virtual parent coaching. While therapy focuses on meeting treatment goals to address a psychological or medical diagnosis, parent coaching involves receiving education and support specific to your child. Dr. Jill’s approach to parent coaching is an integrated model. She integrates her knowledge of child development, neurobiology and attachment theory with the tools from The Nurtured Heart Approach to create the best fit for you and your child.
