In addition to specialized trauma therapy services, over half of Dr. Hill's work is focused on adolescents. He works a lot with men and boys, practicing what he calls "Dude Therapy" in which he uses a male focused approach, helping to make therapy relevant for men (and boys). Dude therapy engages the development of relational competence, learning to recognize and manage male privilege while developing insight, mutuality in relationships, and improved emotional regulation. He also specializes in play therapy services for school aged kids. When working with children and adolescents, Dr. Hill often involves family members in the therapy process. He is trained and practices approaches for working with clients who have chemical dependency issues in addition to other mental health disorders.

Personal Statement
I work with general psychological issues and my main focus areas include working with children, teens, adults, and families dealing with depression, anger and psychological trauma. In particular, I work a great deal with men and adolescent boys struggling with anger, addiction, and relationship challenges. I have dedicated my work to helping individuals recover and reach their full potential in a caring and effective manner (evidenced based). I work very hard to be respectful and I’m also quite willing to “call out the pink elephant in the room” in a manner that clients sometimes need. I am known to use humor as a means to regulate high levels of emotionality.

Art therapy is a specialization that is able to provide processing of trauma in a way that does not re-traumatize the participant. It can be transformative for both adults and children, as it allows the unconscious parts of our brain, the parts that do not normally have direct expression, to communicate and heal. While art therapy was originally developed to assist physical recovery of skills, it has been found to be highly effective for providing diagnosis and treatment of trauma experiences.
AIR (Adaptive Internal Relational) Network is a trauma-informed model to work with complex trauma and dissociation. This training was developed by experts in this field at Midwest Center for Trauma and Healing. Jessica has completed AIR Network and uses this model in working with clients who have experienced complex trauma and present with dissociative symptoms. Jessica is in a monthly consult group with one of the AIR Network trainers, Dr. Phyllis Solon, and is working towards certification in AIR Network.
Jessica has completed training to be a state board-approved supervisor for LPCC.

She is interested in creating a genuine connection and using strengths as the basis for growth and conscious evolution.

Personal Statement
I believe that every person has their own unique life path, and while life is often challenging, it should also be an enriching experience. It can be very challenging to know where and how we have power in our lives when things are difficult, and so I love helping children, adolescents, parents, caregivers, and friends discover their power. I tend to tailor my intervention strategies to the person or group I am working with, but I always will provide you with consistent, positive support. I always notice and point out my client’s strengths. I use CBT, DBT strategies, art therapy, play therapy, AIR Network, and non-violent communication as the basis for my work with clients.

How we interact with ourselves and others is the result of our own early childhood experiences, traumas, and attachment. As we get older we hold onto these psychological foundations and patterns. These often drive maladaptive behaviors, relationship distress, anxiety, and overall dissatisfaction. My goal is to first help you understand these patterns and then to help you incorporate these past experiences within your current self. Through this process, you will gain insight, acceptance, and more genuine and fulfilling life. I offer a safe, non-judgmental, and, at times, playful environment for the client.

Jill started her career as a mental health practitioner working with children, adolescents, and their families in a home-based setting. In 2013, Jill took a position at Union Gospel Mission Twin Cities, where she provided case management to women and children in long-term residential programming. She later helped implement the addition of the clinical services department and provided individual and group therapy, staff training, and clinical supervision to graduate students. Her work experiences led her to develop a special interest in working with trauma, as this was a common factor for nearly every individual and family she worked with.
Specialized Training
Jill has completed EMDR basic training. EMDR, which stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is a well-researched, powerful tool used for helping people recover from distressing life events.

In addition, Jill is trained in the facilitation of individual and group Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), which focuses on developing mindfulness, interpersonal effectiveness skills, emotional regulation, and increasing one’s ability to tolerate emotional pain.
Jill has completed training to be a state-approved board supervisor for LPCCs.

I work from a perspective that is non-pathologizing and strengths-based. I try to hold space for clients in a way that is gentle and collaborative, as well as authentic and straightforward. I admire clients for taking on the challenge to enter therapy. I believe that pain from the past is not truly “past” until it is healed. Avoiding or ignoring old wounds does not make them go away. Doing the work of therapy to heal and grow takes courage, and I am honored to hold the stories of my clients with them, and am passionate about walking alongside individuals and their families on the path toward wholeness.

I believe that mental health symptoms represent skills that were developed to survive in situations that may no longer be present in a person’s life. As a therapist, I seek to create a collaborative nonjudgmental environment where an individual’s survival strategies can be explored and honored. I believe this is an important step in developing new skills and utilizing our strengths to improve the quality of our lives. Making the choice to seek and accept help is an act of courage that should be honored in the therapeutic relationship.

David Swirnoff, MA
(David is currently on leave and is not accepting new clients at this time.)
He/Him
Education
David obtained his Master of Arts degree in Counseling and Psychological Services from the Saint Mary’s University of Minnesota in January 2019. David completed his practicum at CareProfiler, working with a wide range of populations and settings, including Catholic Charities Higher Ground long-term residential homeless shelter in downtown Saint Paul, working with substance abuse issues, complex trauma, and the long-term effects of chronic homelessness; The Friendship Home Community in Roseville, working with geriatric residents under hospice and memory care; and providing individual therapy at CareProfiler, working with issues ranging from depression and anxiety to grief and life transitions. David is on track for licensure as a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) and is under the supervision of Jeffrey Hill, PsyD, LP, and Soo Moon, MA LMFT.

David completed a Bachelor of Arts degree in Interdisciplinary Studies that combined Psychology with Buddhism/Mindfulness from Marylhurst University in Portland, Oregon in 2016. From 2013-2019 David worked with the Face It Foundation, a non-profit organization offering free support and psychological services to men with depression, leading groups and conducting seminars on men and relationships. David completed AIR Network training to work with complex developmental trauma in the spring of 2020.
Areas of Clinical Interest
David enjoys working with people from diverse backgrounds and all walks of life. He works with individual and couples, and though he believes that is important to match the type of therapy to the particular needs of the individual or the circumstances they find themselves in, he has a particular interest in narrative forms of therapy. David believes that though we often can’t always control the events that happen to us or the circumstances we find ourselves in, one of our greatest strengths and freedoms is having the power to decide what story we tell about them. Narrative therapy makes a collaborative effort between therapist and client to change script that might be prohibiting us from living healthier, more fulfilling lives. As evolving human beings, our story is fluid and ever-changing. When we learn to see our lives not as a fixed or permanent storyline, but as a broad spectrum of experiences, none any more indicative of our true natures or true selves than any other one, instead of feeling limited or restricted or somehow fated or doomed by our stories, we find ourselves more resilient in times of crisis and hardship, more open and available to whatever comes next.
Practice Areas
David works with adolescents, individuals, & couples.
Personal Statement
I believe all of us are doing the best we can with the resources we have and the circumstances we find ourselves in, and that sometimes, when life leaves us feeling stuck, lost, or overwhelmed, it becomes necessary to reach outside of ourselves and ask for help. My goal is to give people a safe space to be listened to and heard, to tell their story, and for us to work together toward constructing a future that feels hopeful and inspiring. In my view, we are much more than a simple diagnosis, much more than the sum of our pain and struggle, much more than any statistic or stereotype can ever capture or describe. When you walk into my office I promise to see you as a highly complex, impossibly irreducible, fully unique person, and I will treat you with the respect and dignity we are all deserving of.

Personal Statement
I am a cis, white-passing, biracial, queer woman and I am humbled to facilitate the deep healing that individuals have expressed experiencing when working with me. I am passionate in working with populations that are largely underrepresented. My own identities within these demographics allow me to experience a deeper understanding of the unique struggles experienced among these populations, and I also recognize the privileges I hold that create limitations to what I can truly understand. I value bringing humor into my sessions, when appropriate, and I love connecting with my clients through music and art. I truly believe there’s so much that these mediums can communicate which words alone cannot articulate. You will find that I am laid back, non-intimidating, and genuine in my therapeutic approach.
