About me
Hi, I’m Jill Yerkes, a licensed clinical social worker in Illinois with over 30 years of experience helping individuals and families navigate life’s challenges.
My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs. If you’re ready to take the next step toward healing and growth, I’m here to support you. I enjoy taking clients through a solution-focused approach in order to help them reach goals and enjoy a life they deserve.
My approach to therapy is calm and casual, and inludes use of the cognitive behavioral model. I always enjoy being a sounding board for those who just
need an ear that is ready and available. In our first session, clients can expect for us to get to know each other and set a course of action. I strive to provide a therapeutic environment that is relaxed and welcoming.
