Family Therapy in Palmdale, CA
Life is hard. In this fast paced world we rarely take time to take care of ourselves. We end up exhausted and unhappy, feeling alone in our struggles. If you’re reading this it means you’re thinking of making a change and I’m here to help guide you and support you. With over 29 years of experience working with individuals, couples, families, and children I provide a warm and nonjudgmental place, helping clients to tap into their strengths, understand and express their emotions, and accept and love themselves.

I have been a practicing therapist for over twenty years. Helping people move away from distress and into peace, is a passion of mine. Choosing therapy is choosing health, and without your health, nothing can grow.

My name is Jill Pederson and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Orange County, California and work with clients statewide via telehealth. I work with adolescents and young adults and specialize in anxiety, stress, depression, and behavioral issues such as defiance and difficulty managing anger. I use a variety of clinical approaches, based on the needs of my client; although I do find that Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is often a very effective approach in helping clients meet their goals.

Reaching out to get help can feel awkward and embarrassing. It takes courage to be open and willing to explore and process personal challenges and commitment to work towards being the best version of yourself you can be. I offer a safe and confidential space to walk together on your journey of exploration and growth. We will work together to identify your therapy goals, issues or challenges that may be creating barriers to success and tailor therapy to your individual needs. I provide a relaxed, safe, and supportive environment to help you explore the challenges you are facing.

I believe that the power of vulnerability is one of our greatest strengths and ultimately can provide us with a deeper sense of self, security, comfort, and more compassionate towards one another. Coming from a strength-based form of doing therapy and providing support to others, I work to provide my clients with a sense of validation and comfort. As a cis male that identifies as Latinx and as a proud member of the LGBTQIA community, I am able to hold the experience of living in many diverse, cross-cultural emotional experiences that we sometimes may not even know how to begin to understand.

Do you feel stuck, depressed, overwhelmed, or just unsure of what to do next? Does life currently seem too difficult to navigate on your own? Then you have come to the right place and there is good news; you are human! All of us struggle at times with life challenges that can feel daunting. Some of us have used unhealthy coping tools, like alcohol and other substances, that only exacerbated these challenges. I want you to know that you can find support and relief starting with finding a therapist who can help you examine, explore and discover what is working and what behaviors, thoughts and feelings are no longer useful.

Hi, I'm Lillian and I have been an LCSW for over 15 years. I love what I do, and am passionate about helping individuals, couples, and families get through life and personal challenges.

Are you feeling stuck and overwhelmed? You haven’t always felt like this. There was a time when you could get through the day without feeling exhausted and on edge. You enjoyed hobbies and activities outside of your home. You spent time with other people and tried new things without overthinking all your choices. I know you want to be able to feel joyful and relaxed again.
