Hi, I’m Jill Yerkes, a licensed clinical social worker in Illinois with over 30 years of experience helping individuals and families navigate life’s challenges. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs. If you’re ready to take the next step toward healing and growth, I’m here to support you.

My area of specialty involves assisting women age 50 and beyond in living the second act of life with clarity and purpose. Whether you are navigating the "empty nest," recalibrating your identity after a long career, managing the "sandwich generation" pressure of aging parents or the shifts of menopause, this stage of life demands a new kind of resilience.

Remember, we aren't just looking back at where you've been; we are looking forward at who you are becoming. Take that first step and contact me today.

I specialize in helping women aged 50 and beyond navigate the second act of life by providing a sophisticated, trauma-informed therapeutic space specifically designed for women in that stage. The transition into later mid-life is often framed by society as a series of endings, but in this practice, we recognize it as a powerful, complex evolution.
