Hello! My name is Jill Ramey and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and a Certified Addiction Treatment Counselor based in Ventura, California with over twenty years experience working in this field. I work with adults, couples and adolescents and specialize in depression, anxiety, grief and loss, abuse, trauma, relationships, and substance abuse. My aim is to provide deep and safe therapeutic sessions that ignite real insight, exploration, hope, and change in my clients. I look forward to meeting you!
I believe that everyone’s situation is unique, and I tailor my approach to address your specific needs while applying my extensive experience, education, and collaborative care to the therapeutic process. Some of the therapeutic methods I use include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma-focused CBT, Mindfulness, Psychodynamic, Therapy, Dialectal Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Interpersonal Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.
I work with adolescents and adults that are open to the therapeutic process and amiable to making changes and adjustments within their lives. I specialize in working with clients presenting with depression, anxiety, trauma, and substance abuse.
My communication style is calm, accommodating, passionate, and personable. I want my clients to feel comfortable talking with me about anything, and I pride myself on my ability to listen without judgment. My aim is to provide deep and safe therapeutic sessions that ignite real insight, exploration, hope, and change in my clients.
I have worked for a non-profit business that specialized in domestic violence and abuse, and I worked for the county while collaborating with probation for the AB109 program that helps incarcerated people get the services they need once they are released from jail. Most recently I worked at a high end drug treatment facility in Malibu specializing in treating the underlying issues that have lead clients to misuse drugs and alcohol.
