About

As a bilingual Puerto Rican veteran and licensed professional counselor, I draw from my diverse life experiences to create a safe, empowering space where clients can heal, grow, and thrive.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with 5 years of experience. I specialize in family and child development and clinical mental health counseling. I work with individuals, couples, and families navigating life transitions, anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship challenges. My goal is to help clients find clarity, healing, and balance as they move toward living the life they want to create.

I earned my Master’s in Mental Health Counseling from South University. I use a collaborative, compassionate approach that integrates evidence-based practices such as cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care. Together, we identify strengths, process challenges, and build tools for lasting growth and healing.

I believe everyone deserves a safe space to be heard and supported. My goal is to walk alongside you with empathy and encouragement as you navigate life’s challenges. Healing and growth are possible, and I would be honored to support you on your journey toward balance, clarity, and renewed hope.

Common approaches to Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapy (OCDT)

Leaf Seperator

Starting Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapy (OCDT) in Mt Pleasant

What is OCD counseling?

OCD counseling is a specialized therapeutic approach aimed at supporting individuals coping with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). The goal of this counseling is to help clients manage and alleviate the distressing symptoms of OCD by systematically addressing their obsessive thought patterns and compulsive behaviors.

How does OCD counseling work?

In OCD counseling, Thriveworks Mt Pleasant therapists use cognitive behavioral techniques, including exposure and response prevention, to assist you in addressing and managing your obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors. An OCD therapist will collaborate with you to identify and modify irrational thought patterns while gradually and gently exposing you to anxiety-triggering situations, helping to disrupt the cycle of obsessive-compulsive rituals and promote healthier coping strategies.

Is OCD counseling conducted in person or online?

Thriveworks OCD counseling in Mt Pleasant, SC is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How long does OCD counseling last?

The number of sessions for OCD counseling is variable, contingent upon the individual’s unique needs, the severity of their condition, and their progress during treatment. Typically, Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), commonly used for OCD, comprises around 12 to 16 weekly sessions, but the exact session count can be customized based on the individual’s response to treatment and therapeutic objectives. Some opt for a more extended duration to comprehensively manage symptoms and address complex issues.

I am very pleased with Susan Jillson as my provider. The referral to her was a great match for my needs. She quickly grasped my issues, cared enough to ask me what I wanted from her, shared her ideas about a starting approach to help that I'm excited to try, and already gave me helpful information in the first two sessions with her. She is professional, knowledgeable, relatable, and funny at times. She was prompt and the hour flew by. I like that she thinks outside the box and is open to referring me to someone else for matters beyond her expertise, while still taking an interest in those specialties. Lastly, I feel comfortable and safe with her.

My therapist at Thriveworks, Susan, is warm and and relatable. I am a late-diagnosed autistic woman. I am basically now learning what everyone else learned in kindergarten. I have a history of broken marriages and jobs I was invited to leave because I didn't fit in, to put it mildly. She has helped me in so many ways, and I can now see decisions I made that I thought were just what had happened to me. I feel much more capable and hopeful now. I wish I could have met her years ago. I have gone to many therapists over the years, but now I can see how I can feel hopeful about my life and my relationships with my daughters and my grandchildren.

Susan is my Thriveworks therapist. She is helping me set boundaries and make better choices. I am learning a lot from her. Having Asperger's, I often can be quite blunt. I am gradually learning how to say less but make better connections. She
