Jill Ballew

Jill Ballew is a Licensed Professional Counselor in South Carolina (SC LPC 6857) with 15 years of clinical experience. She works with people managing stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, motivation and confidence, self-esteem concerns, depression, ADHD, relationship and family issues, parenting challenges, anger, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes. She is a female, non-religious, older therapist who brings a compassionate, respectful approach to her work.

She has provided services to individuals and families aged 5 and up across a range of settings, including community mental health, school-based counseling, mobile crisis response, and directing therapy programs for people with chronic severe mental illness. Those varied roles inform her practical and flexible clinical perspective.

Jill approaches counseling as a partnership in which the client is the primary author of their own life. Her work is grounded in a client-centered framework while integrating cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and mindfulness techniques. Sessions are tailored to each person’s needs so that therapeutic conversations and treatment plans remain individualized and goal-focused.

She emphasizes that seeking change takes courage and offers support and empowerment throughout that process. Jill schedules sessions after normal business hours, so she is not a fit for appointments between 8am and 6pm Monday through Friday. She looks forward to working with clients ready to take steps toward a more fulfilling life.
