I'm a psychotherapist, business consultant, and clinical supervisor. I practice through a social justice, trauma-informed, and Health at Every Size (HAES)® lens. I specialize in working with folks who have a disrupted relationship with their body for reasons such as trauma, eating disorders, chronic illness/disability, gender/sexuality dysphoria, and things of the like.

I am a trauma-informed therapist certified in CPT for PTSD and in DBT for private practitioners. While I tend to utilize a DBT-informed approach most frequently I am also influenced by Somatic Experiencing Therapy and mindfulness more generally. I am licensed in NY and MD and currently do not have a waiting list. I used to run a comprehensive, team-based medicaid funded mental health program for those with serious mental illness so I am experienced with voice hearers, vision seers, and those with delusions.

After closing my Brooklyn office, I relocated to Ithaca, NY, but see clients from NYC and throughout NY State via telehealth. My psychotherapy practice focuses on individuals and couples, ranging in age from young adults (18 and up), adults, and elderly.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and certified EMDRIA therapist with 10 years experience working with clients of all ages, backgrounds and struggle areas that allows me to be a more well-rounded and seasoned therapist. I provide CBT, DBT, EMDR and practical feedback for clients to utilize inside and outside of sessions to ensure they are getting the most out of our work together. I am licensed in NY, CT and FL.

I specialize in the treatment of anxiety and mood disorders, using evidence-based practices. During my extensive experience treating children, adolescents, and adults using a cognitive-behavioral approach, I have worked with patients struggling with anxiety disorders (such as social phobia, selective mutism, OCD, panic disorder, specific phobias, and generalized anxiety disorder) and mood disorders (such as depression and bipolar disorder). Prior to opening my practice, I was a full-time faculty member at Weill Cornell Medical College. It is my goal to provide treatment that is supported by the most current research in the field of psychology.

I primarily use psychodynamic, systemic, experiential and culturally sensitive approaches to accompany the client throughout the journey of self discovery. With emphasis on awareness and insight, I encourage individuals and couples to seek solutions that resonate with their individual and relational needs. The struggle to overcome adverse experiences, can be a product of sociocultural system, family context, early attachment and relationships which reflect a stigmatized idea of self.

As a couples therapist and creative arts therapist, I help partners and individuals explore their inner worlds with curiosity and compassion. Together, we’ll work to understand the origins of your struggles, illuminate unconscious patterns that shape your relationships, and cultivate new ways of relating—to yourself, to others, and to your life.​ My work is grounded in psychodynamic, attachment-based, and trauma-informed therapy, with an emphasis on creating a thoughtful, supportive, and collaborative therapeutic space.

In couples therapy, I work with partners experiencing recurring conflict, emotional distance, attachment injury, or difficulty reconnecting. My approach helps couples slow down reactive patterns, understand what’s happening beneath conflict or withdrawal, and move toward greater emotional clarity, repair, and intimacy, particularly during periods of rupture or life transition. I have helped couples navigate fertility, loss, sexual intimacy, gender transition, affairs, non-monogamy, financial stress, parenting, and trauma.

I also offer individual psychotherapy and creative arts therapy for adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and relational challenges. Creative arts therapy is integrated as a clinical tool to support emotional processing and insight when words alone feel limiting.

Jillian is a clinical social worker, an adjunct instructor with NYU, and founder of Wavelength Psychotherapy in NYC and NJ. She is an active advocate in fighting against sexual violence and facilitates a variety of workshops on masculinity, consent, somatic therapy, and more.

I believe the key to change lies in cultivating a safe, strong therapeutic relationship. Through a developmental lens, I aim to understand each person’s history and how their unique story informs current challenges. I feel passionate about working with patients from diverse backgrounds and utilize a culturally-informed approach when understanding life experiences and associated thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. In conjunction with this psychodynamic, relationally-driven approach, I help patients identify a clear presenting concern, develop goals, and integrate appropriate evidence-based practice tailored to their specific needs.

I am a general practitioner licensed in California and New York, with experience working with individuals across the lifespan, treating a range of presenting concerns, including: complex trauma, anxiety, panic, depression, obsessive compulsive disorder, body-focused repetitive behaviors, life transitions, minority stress, and family conflict.
