Jillian Thomson, MA, LPC, ADC, is a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 12 years of experience in community mental health, non-profit organizations, and school-based settings. She holds a Bachelor’s Degree in psychology and a Master of Arts in Counseling, with additional graduate coursework focused on child and adolescent counseling, trauma, grief, and addiction. Her clients range from pre-teens to adults.
Jillian’s counseling approach is person-centered and trauma-informed, emphasizing the importance of a collaborative working environment. Jillian incorporates art as a tool for expression, exploration, and healing when requested by a client. Known for her warm and down-to-earth demeanor, Jillian sets out to establish an open space for clients to be their authentic selves. She welcomes laughter, tears, and colorful language as valid forms of expression. Jillian strives to provide a non-judgmental and affirming atmosphere that respects and celebrates individual identities and experiences.
As a certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor, Jillian strongly advocates for harm reduction and medication-assisted treatment for opioid use. Working alongside your medical provider, she will support your recovery journey by focusing on mental health, recovery, and relapse prevention. Jillian also offers emotional care and guidance to friends and family members navigating the stress, worry, or grief that accompanies having a loved one on this path.
Outside of her counseling practice, Jillian enjoys spending time with her husband, children, friends, and animals. She values playfulness, exploring nature and cities, gardening and indoor plants, art, new experiences in general, and watching reality TV. Having lived in five different states, she made the Huntsville area her home approximately four years ago.
