Counseling, Healing, and Hypnosis in White Salmon

Do You Keep Finding Yourself in the Same Emotional or Relationship Pattern?

You may wonder why the same reaction, choice, or difficulty keeps returning, even when you understand it and genuinely want something different.

Jillian Brown helps you explore the deeper patterns beneath emotional distress, relationship difficulties, and unwanted behaviors so you can better understand yourself and develop healthier ways of relating to yourself and others.

Jillian is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, hypnotherapist, and integrative practitioner who works with tweens, teenagers, and adults.

Her approach combines counseling, hypnotherapy, attachment-focused psychotherapy, depth psychology, family systems, somatic awareness, and creative or experiential practices.

Areas of Focus

Jillian provides individualized support for concerns involving:

• Anxiety, stress, and depression
• Attachment wounds
• Trauma and difficult experiences
• Ancestral and intergenerational patterns
• Relationship difficulties
• Addictive and compulsive patterns
• Grief and loss
• Self-esteem and confidence
• Parenting concerns
• Body-image concerns
• Adjustment to chronic pain or illness
• Insomnia and sleep difficulties
• Burnout
• Spirituality and personal meaning
• Life purpose and direction
• Repetitive emotional or behavioral patterns
• Personal transitions
• Feeling disconnected from yourself
• Developing greater internal security

Explore What Lies Beneath the Surface

Your sessions may include conversation, hypnotherapy, mindfulness, guided imagery, somatic awareness, creative exploration, family-systems work, or other approaches selected around your age, needs, goals, and preferences.

Hypnotherapy may be integrated into ongoing counseling or used as focused, short-term support for a specific concern. You remain able to communicate and make choices throughout hypnosis.

Spiritual, metaphysical, and energy-based practices are optional.

From Hypnotherapy to Counseling

Jillian began working as a hypnotherapist in 2011. Her fascination with the subconscious mind led her to explore how past experiences, relationships, family patterns, and the body can influence present-day emotions and behavior.

After several years as a hypnotherapist and energy-healing practitioner, Jillian entered graduate school in 2016. She wanted to expand her professional skills and develop longer-term therapeutic relationships with clients.

Jillian earned a master’s degree in psychology with a counseling focus from Saybrook University. After graduating, she continued her education through training in primary attachment psychotherapy, Process Work, family constellations, Nonviolent Communication, pre- and perinatal psychology, sand tray and play therapy, craniosacral work, Reiki, and other integrative approaches.
