Our counselors in Silver Spring, MD offer child therapy

I am a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner with 28 years of healthcare experience and 10 years in mental health, caring for individuals from diverse cultural, social, and economic backgrounds. I work with adolescents, adults, and older adults ages 10 and up experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, PTSD, mood disorders, psychosis, behavioral challenges, substance use concerns, life transitions, grief, stress, relationship difficulties, and emotional distress. My goal is to provide individualized, compassionate care that supports each person's unique journey toward healing and recovery. 

My approach to care is compassionate, collaborative, holistic, and evidence-based. I believe progress occurs when clients feel heard, respected, and actively involved in their care.

Healing is possible, growth is achievable, and positive change can begin with a single step. I would be honored to partner with you and invite you to schedule an appointment to begin your journey toward greater health, hope, and well-being.

Hi, I'm Jillian Block, a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Maryland. I work with teens (16+) and adults navigating bipolar disorder, substance use disorders, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and self-esteem challenges. Many of my clients feel overwhelmed, stuck in unhelpful patterns, or disconnected from the life they want. Together, we focus on building insight, developing healthy coping skills, strengthening resilience, and creating meaningful, lasting change that aligns with your goals and values.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs. I integrate CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, mindfulness, and person-centered therapy to help you better understand yourself, manage difficult emotions, improve relationships, and build practical skills that support lasting growth.

Starting therapy can feel like a big step, but you don't have to do it alone. You deserve a space where you feel heard, accepted, and supported. If you're ready to invest in yourself and create meaningful change, I'd be honored to be part of your journey.
