Dr. Jillian Graves

“Dr Jillian started therapy with my daughter when she was struggling. As a parent it’s so deflating when you feel powerless to heal your child’s pain, however, having Jillian’s care and attention made that feel more manageable. Her attention to detail and structure for her sessions was so individual and met the needs of my daughter really well. It was lovely watching my daughter come out of her sessions feeling like she had just left the burden of her worries behind. Words can’t express the gratitude I feel, thank you so much for helping my daughter find her way again.”

“We’ve had only two sessions but I feel heard and respected. It’s been nothing but a positive experience.”

“Dr. Graves has been a huge help in validating my concerns and offering solutions to issues I have wrestled with for a long time. She hears me and cares. She ways seems to have a fair response laced with the challenge to grow. I appreciate that I got matched with her”

“Dr Graves has been hugely helpful to me. Whether it is with coping with a particular ongoing issue, taking a step back to try to understand my responses to events and sometimes just talking like an old friend. She has very empathetic while offering things to try and some possible insights into situations which is a huge help”

“Dr Graves is a wonderful counsellor, she helps me to evaluate all the different perspectives when I have a concern, and will even point out a perspective I may not have considered before.”

“I suggest Better Help to anyone I think might need it”

“Dr. Graves is the best therapist I've worked with. Very professional, resourceful and well read. She has a calming presence and is a great listener! She's been here for me and helped through a lot, I'm grateful.”

“Dr Graves has such a comfortable manner about her. She understands that some days I need a friend to talk about world events and sometimes I need to do serious work. I cannot tell you how I got from the miserable mess I was when I met her to the generally happier more positive person I am today. She allows me to forgive myself. That’s my hardest lesson but she seems to instinctively know what she needs to say so I can let myself off the hook. I don’t know how she does it and at times I would love to say heck no I wouldn’t refer her but it’s because I appreciate her in my life working with me and selfishly I just want to keep her.....”

“My experience with Dr Graves can be summed up in the feeling that someone threw me a lifeline! I don’t think I could have picked anyone more suited to my needs if I had interviewed for the position myself. Being able to talk at home where I am most comfortable is one of the best parts of this program. Being able to schedule around my busy lifestyle is a relief. I don’t feel rushed or frantic that I am missing work so there is no guilt about taking care of my needs. I would absolutely recommend Better Help and Dr Graves!”

“Graves is intelligent, tactful, kind, and most importantly, a good listener. Speaking with her was extremely comforting, as her expertise made her able to articulate my specific worries when words or sense failed me.”

“Dr. Graves goes above and beyond to help and is thorough in her knowledge. She's given me a lot of insight that's invaluable to me. Very considerate and professional.”

“Dr Gaves has approached our therapy sessions in a way that I’ve always been looking for in therapy, but could never quite vocalize. She approaches the situation with empathy, but also offers real, practical, well articulated advice; always putting an active effort into making sure she and I both understand the situation and are on the same page. She’s provided me with real tools and action plans to not just better understand what I’m feeling/why I’m feeling that way, but also to be better equipped in HOW to approach the situation, and what to do about it moving forward. <br /> <br /> Honestly I don’t know if I just got really lucky or if all the councillors in better help are this good, but our therapy sessions together have legitimately made such a huge difference in my life already. In just a few weeks, I’ve gotten more out of my therapy sessions with her than I have in 6 years with my original therapist. Thank you so much for all of your help!”

“Dr. Graves is a guiding light in a dark time in my life. I have tried counseling various time over the last few years and this is the first time I have managed to ‘connect’ with someone. She doesn’t rush you, she patient and her advise is sympathetic and constructive. I was in such a desperate state when I started with Dr Graves, I was suffering anxiety attacks in the middle of the night, I had physical signs of anxiety, I was so overwhelmed and just could get things straight in my mind. I was suffering with work stress and grief. I am currently I’m in a position where my thoughts are becoming clearer and I am able to talk about my issues. I’m still a way off but I’m beginning to see the light.”

“Dr Graves is brilliant! Supportive, affirmative and a wonderful communicator- she truly helped me work through a serious issue in my life. I can’t thank you, enough Dr Graves!!!”

“Dr. Graves has helped me immensely in crafting the narratives which are at the base of many of my anxieties, and how these are grounded in my particular trauma history. She is truly a therapist I feel comfortable delving into extremely difficult subjects and greatly value her feedback and inputs.”
