Getting to know Jill Shinn

Hi there, I'm Jill Shinn, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a Master’s in Counseling Psychology from National University. My focus is on helping clients move from where they are now to a better place in their lives. Whether your main goal is reducing anxiety, increasing self-esteem, healing old wounds, or improving relationships, we will work together to upgrade your life! My approach is largely psychodynamic but also very eclectic. My toolbox includes mindfulness, transpersonal, humanistic, and cognitive-behavioral approaches to healing and wellness. Mostly, I tune in to where you are, and we go from there! Near and dear to my heart is working with clients struggling with self-worth and relationship issues. Many of us carry a nagging sense that we are "not good enough," which can show up as anxiety, depression, guilt, perfectionism, people-pleasing, compulsive behavior, codependency, or very difficult relationships. I truly love seeing people become more confident and empowered in their lives! I’m an active listener who creates a warm and supportive space for you to share what’s true for you. Clients describe me as empathic, intuitive, and insightful—but I can also be direct and hold folks accountable! I became a therapist because I wanted to help people feel truly understood and supported, something I personally wished I’d had more of growing up. I started out as an interior designer but quickly realized my heart was in transforming and beautifying lives, not spaces! Together, we will discuss and set goals for your therapy and your life. This is a collaborative journey. My intention in our first session is to make it comfortable and encouraging for you. Whatever you’re bringing to therapy, I hope you’ll walk away feeling hopeful.
