Welcome, I am glad you reached out for more support!

My name is Jillian Graham and I am the owner of A Better Understanding, Inc. I named my practice with consideration of what I find the main benefit of therapy to be, a way to gain a better understanding. Many of my clients are searching for a better understanding of themselves, their wants and needs, their feelings, their situation, their relationships and connections with others. I have had a lot of success working with these struggles and would love to help you as well. If this is what you are looking for, then I am the therapist for you.

I specialize in working with adults who may be feeling a bit out of place in the world. Many may be struggling with symptoms of anxiety, social anxiety and social isolation, low self-esteem, or poor motivation to do anything. It's not uncommon for me to meet a new client who describes feeling a sense of disconnection in the world and is not sure why. Working with clients "labeled" or "not labeled," I have found that it can be helpful to have someone to talk to who you can share your whole self to, maybe for the first time ever. We can work together to understand your struggles, target your mental health goals, and identify tools to feel better and manage life in a better way. Sometimes when working through difficult and negative thoughts on your own it can be easy to only be able to see a hole of negativity. I love it when I can help a client manage their perspective when looking at difficult relationships or situations so that they can not only feel better, but they can feel more in control.

I have built my practice to be exclusively California teletherapy because I believe that teletherapy is the wave of the future for accessing therapy. Teletherapy offers convenience and a way to connect from the comfort and safety of your own home. I offer a HIPPA compliant, confidential online therapy through the Simplepractice.com platform.
