"A difficult situation is not a problem to be solved, but a door to be opened.
​may I open that door." ~
Will Taegel

my philosophy.

nature is the true healer.

"courage starts by showing up and letting ourselves be seen." brene brown, daring greatly

there can be room for humor when doing healing work. 

​"the creative process is a process of surrender, not of control." julia cameron, the artist's way

it is not my job to have answers, but to help you hear your own inner wisdom.

spending time and energy on health and well-being is a good investment.


​we were not meant to do healing work alone.

"what is good for the land is good for the people." robin wall kimmerer, braiding sweetgrass

"change is inevitable, but transformation is by conscious choice." heatherash amara, warrior goddess training

about jillian.

The Inner Resource Collective LLC is a blend of modern psychology best practices and wisdom from life experience. I draw from my career working as a counselor in private practice, teaching yoga internationally, and over a decade of mentorship with earth-based healers. I work remotely in an office located on the traditional land of the Abenaki people.

My education weaves together both ancient and modern therapeutic approaches
​ to assist clients in deepening awareness, cultivating curiosity, and developing warmth toward themselves and their lives. I hold an undergraduate degree from the University of Texas and a masters in clinical counseling psychology from La Salle University. I studied mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) through Penn Medicine, mindful self-compassion training (MSC) through the Institute for Spirituality and Health, Toltec philosophy with Heatherash Amara, and Eco-therapy with Dr. Will Taegel. 
​

Through my work I have come to view that our personalities are made up of an ecology of interactive parts. Problems occur when we over-identify with any one of these parts and solutions can occur when we can include all aspects with curious, non-judgmental awareness. I have also noticed that our bodies, minds, hearts, and spirits heal faster when our nervous system is calm and supported. It is easier to connect with our wise, still self when we do not feel like we are being "fixed". I have also found that self-love is very much at the center of the healing journey.

I am an LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC life-affirming healer. Issues related to oppression are everyone's concern and not just the concern of those whose identities are targets of oppression. I exist in a white, female, cis-gender, mostly-able body and grew up with many privileges. I recognize that I have blind-spots and blind-spots about my blind-spots when it comes to other's lived experiences. It is an ongoing process to cultivate a safe place and I am deeply committed to doing the personal work in stretching my understanding of my own intersectional privileges and how this may manifest in the healing relationship.
