Hey, I’m Jillian.
I help women and femmes living with complex trauma, chronic illness, or experiencing major life transitions restore a sense of safety in their today body.
My Approach
Collaboration
I believe that coaching is a collaborative process.
This work is done in partnership with you in the driver’s seat, with your immediate and long-term needs or desires in mind. There will be times when I offer guidance and suggestions with education to further support your process forward.
Compassion
Life can be hard, and we are hard enough on ourselves. Self-compassion is a skill to be practiced and learned. This is a container for receiving non-judgment and compassion in conjunction with the work that you will be doing.
Coregulation
The nervous system plays an integral role in growing our capacity to navigate difficult seasons of life and grow resilience.
Working with a somatically trained coach brings coregulation to sessions so that you can experience how it feels to come into regulation with a sense of safety and someone by your side to hold the bigness of emotional experiences.

I am aware that some of us don’t have expendable income at this time. I strive to make my fees accessible without sacrificing my health and need for medical finances, so if something feels out of reach, please contact me. I’m human. Let’s discuss and see if we can find something that supports both of us.

Timelines are dependent upon the individual, their needs/goals, and the type of container desired (group or 1:1).
With 1:1, first-time clients, a minimum of 3-6 months is recommended for sustainable transformation that honors your nervous system.
With group programs, the duration can vary from a condensed workshop series to weeks to months. It all depends on the intention of the group.
