ABOUT ME
Jillian Blum, Ph.D., LPC
•Gottman Level 1 & 2 Certified Relationship Therapist
•Certified Discernment Counselor
•EMDR trained therapist
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Ph.D. in Counselor Education specializing in working with adults and couples to help with challenges such as managing anxiety, depression, LGBTQAI+ identity, relationship issues, trauma, and letters for HRT and surgeries. I work from a cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), EMDR, internal family systems, person centered, sex positive, kink friendly, poly friendly, and nonbinary orientation in order to explore and collaboratively work with you to assist in achieving your goals. This eclectic theory base allows for me to develop an individual treatment plan that often includes homework and ongoing research based interventions.
For relationship therapy (couples and poly), I worked from a Gottman standpoint to help guide partners with evidence based interventions.
Also, for those contemplating about whether to divorce or not, Discernment Counseling can be a great option to increase clarity and confidence in deciding how to move forward.
Our work together can help to increase your self awareness and identify patterns that can be changed to achieve a healthier and more fulfilling life. Therapy is such a powerful tool that can allow you to learn about yourself in a deeper, more meaningful manner. I look forward to partnering with you on your journey.
I offer availability Monday-Friday from 9am-5pm and some Saturday availability until noon. Currently, I am providing therapy in person and online. I welcome you to call or email me so we can further discuss how I can help you or a loved one.

Life throws many surprises at us, and while we cannot predict the outcome of any situation, we can take control of how we respond to certain situations. Utilizing evidenced-based interventions, we will work together to analyze patterns and learn how to exert your power of choice over whatever life may throw at you via a specified treatment plan. Helping to explore and identify blindspots can help increase your awareness.

CERTIFIED DISCERNMENT COUNSELOR
90-120 minute Sessions (Up to 5 sessions)
If you or your spouse are considering divorce but are not completely sure that’s the best path, you are in a tough spot. And Discernment Counseling is designed for you. It’s a chance to slowdown, take a breath, and look at your options for your marriage.
I will help you decide whether to try to restore your marriage to health, move toward divorce, or take a time out and decide later.
The goal is for you to gain clarity and confidence about a direction, based on a deeper understanding of your relationship and its possibilities for the future.The goal is not to solve your marital problems but to see if they are solvable.
I emphasize the importance of each of you seeing your own contributions to the problems and the possible solutions. This will be useful in future relationships even if this one ends.
Call me today to discuss if this would be a good fit for you!
