“I've been experiencing some life changes and feelings of uncertainty recently. This was my first time meeting with a therapist after years of telling myself I should. That being said—Jillian made me feel very comfortable. She was warm and listened to my story intently, offering me some guidance in just the first meeting. I'll be seeing her again and I'm eager to progress.”

Getting to know Jillian Drummond

*This provider does not accept any Medicaid or Medicare plans* Healing from trauma alone can be a painful journey. You need someone on your side to help you through difficult times and support you in being more successful and intentional with your healing. As a therapist, my passion is to help those in vulnerable populations. Many of my clients struggle with trauma and are also navigating where they fit within their racial and cultural identity. In my practice, I embrace all individuals, no matter who you are or what you’ve been through. I want to help you see beyond the worst things that have happened to you and understand that those experiences do not define you. I walk this journey with you from a place of compassion and empathy so you can emerge stronger and more confident in who you are. My goal for you and all my clients is to find your true self and embrace your identity-whoever that person is inside that we need to discover. My heart and mind are open and ready to begin the healing process with you. Reach out to me today; I would love to learn more about you and see how I can help. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from Columbia University, which has equipped me with the skills and knowledge to provide thoughtful, effective care. Said one of Jillian’s patients: “My Therapist Jillian Drummond is amazing! I am extremely grateful to have her as my therapist! Her professionalism is outstanding… she is helping me in various areas of my life. It’s a journey that I am willing to take.” Said another patient: “Jillian is amazing! She is very professional, kind, and attentive. From the start, Jillian made me feel heard and understood. She is also very calming and a great listener.”

What should a new client know about working with you?

I work with individuals across their lifespan who struggle with anxiety, depression, emotional dysregulation, trauma, and racial and cultural identity. I help clients through the challenges of life, including relationships, love, or experiencing grief and loss. I want my clients to know that they are not alone, and what they are feeling is normal. There is no need to put off seeking help – we all need it from time to time.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I make it my mission to provide my clients with a compassionate and inclusive space so that they can navigate their life challenges. Whether it is overcoming a traumatic event in life, or dealing with the stress and challenges of veering toward adulthood, I’m here for my clients. I remind myself and others that “we are more than the worst things we have done,” a quote from my favorite novel, Just Mercy. I like to look at therapy from a macro-level, and I have vast experience treating those from underserved populations; therefore, I can relate to the unique challenges you are encountering if you too are part of that population. I’m here for every stage of the healing process, and I will make you recognize the progress you’ve made so that you can see how you are moving forward and never feel as though you are moving backward. We will work together to unleash your inner strength. No one should feel like they should suffer through what they’ve gone through, and I’m here to make sure you know that every day, and know that you have someone you can come to in your darkest hour.

Jillian created a safe space for me in which afforded me the opportunity to unpack and breathe new life into what currently exists and what has yet to come. Her softness holds a lot of strength. There is a natural flow in her communication which is rooted in intention and allowed for me to speak freely without feeling compelled to answer questions the "right" way. Jillian made feel like she was listening to comprehend vs. hearing to respond. Within the first few minutes of my first session, I already prayed to be chosen by her and envisioned my next sessions. As a Black woman, it is not often where we find spaces that feel like home. My session with Jillian felt like home. It felt like core of community which encourages and empowers you to keep living and enjoying the home within yourself.
