À propos de Jill
Dans ses mots
Jill Townsend is a Master of Counselling intern with a strong passion for supporting youth, adults, couples, parents, and families. Her clinical interests include acute stress and coping, communication and connection, conflict resolution, emotional expression, social justice, empowerment, meaning-making, and mental health concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, loss, and significant life transitions.
She brings over 1,500 hours of volunteer experience in mental health, including work on a crisis helpline and as a facilitator of DBT skills groups for families. With over two years of graduate-level education in counselling, she is especially drawn to supporting intergenerational and collective healing—working with individuals, couples, and families, particularly those impacted by significant mental health challenges. She recognizes that family members often serve as unofficial first responders and believes they deserve support, tools, and compassion in their roles.
Her approach to counselling is person-centred, collaborative, holistic, systemic, and trauma- and resilience-informed. She strives to meet clients where they are, offering warmth, curiosity, and cultural humility while fostering a strong therapeutic alliance. She integrates evidence-based practices and works alongside clients to identify their values, strengths, and goals in a supportive and empowering way.
Jill is committed to tailoring mental health care to the unique needs of each individual and family. She believes in the power of trusting relationships, the importance of self-awareness and communication, and the healing roles of family, culture, and nature. Clients often describe her as non-judgmental, genuine, and deeply compassionate.
