Meet Jill
Hi, I'm Jill. I'm a mom, business owner, outdoor enthusiast, and mental health advocate who believes our greatest growth often comes through our toughest challenges.
​
After experiencing my own mental health crisis that led to a two-week hospital stay, I emerged with a mission: to help others find hope, build resilience, and discover that it's possible to not just survive difficult times, but to truly thrive.
​
With a background in psychology, years in youth and family services, and training in conflict resolution, I bring both lived experience and professional expertise to every conversation about mental wellness.
​
Whether I'm speaking to your team, writing about personal growth, or hiking Oregon's trails with a craft beer waiting at the end, I'm committed to making a difference in how we talk about and approach mental health.
