About Jill Diamond, LMFT

Jill Diamond, LMFT

Licensed Marriage & Family Therapy

I offer a safe, respectful space to support you on your journey forward to living your life to its full potential. I focus my practice on identifying the source of your difficulties and individualizing strategies to support you on your path to wellness.

Eating disorders impact the entire family. I offer expertise in treating individual adults, families and couples experiencing dual-diagnosis. This includes a combination of both addiction and mental disorders.

As a life-long educator, I also specialize in assisting adults to help themselves or their children to reach personal top performance capabilities in academic and school functioning.

I served over twenty years as a K-12 administrator, teacher and therapist in multiple school environments. Unique to my practice is my passion for helping those students struggling with emotional issues or learning disabilities to reach their full academic potential. I also provide support and sensitivity to families experiencing parental alienation grief.

You are an individual, yet there are universal life experiences such as life transitions, relationships, loss and self-esteem issues which we all share. I will focus on your unique experiences and collaborate on strategies to cope with and improve your situation.

If you find yourself struggling with…

Academic, Professional, and Sports Performance

Therapy combined with academic coaching will…

…help identify deeper social, emotional, and mental health issues that contribute to difficulties in academic, professional, and sports performance including the following:

  • Stress Management
  • Prioritizing
  • Study Habits and Routines
  • Learning Strategies
  • Time Management
  • Organization
  • Communication and Presentation Skills
  • Essay Writing and Exam Strategies
  • Self-Motivation
  • Focus
  • Resolve
  • Self-Advocacy
  • Self-Insight
  • Goal Setting

You may be looking for the – “OK, now what?” or “What next?” after the diagnosis of a learning disability, ADHD, a mental health condition or even “unknown” which interferes with your academic functioning.

Different than a tutor – as both a licensed therapist and credentialed, real classroom-experienced teacher – we work together to identify the barriers to learning and academic performance.  Working with parents to discuss family history and dynamics to identify areas to support is a significant source of information.

You may want to work with me to learn to manage stressors if you are aiming for exceptional academic results.

What’s the difference between talking to you or my best friend or family?
The difference is between someone who can do something and someone who has the training and experience to do that same thing professionally. A mental health professional can help you approach your situation in a new way– teach you new skills, gain different perspectives, listen to you without judgment or expectations and help you listen to yourself. Furthermore, counseling is completely confidential. You won’t have to worry about others “knowing my business.” Lastly, if your situation provokes a great deal of negative emotion, and you’ve been confiding in a friend or family member, there is the risk that once you are feeling better you could start avoiding that person so you aren’t reminded of this difficult time in your life.
How does it work? What do I have to do in sessions?
Because each person has different issues and goals for counseling, it will be different depending on the individual. I tailor my therapeutic approach to your specific needs.
I’ve never talked to anyone. I’m used to handling things on my own. Aren’t people who go to therapy weak?
Not at all. People who ask for help know when they need it and have the courage to reach out. Everyone needs help now and then. In our work together, I’ll help you explore and identify your strengths and how to implement them to reduce the influence of the problems you are facing.
How long will it take?
Unfortunately, this is not possible to say in a general FAQ page. Everyone’s circumstances are unique to them. The length of time counseling can take to allow you to accomplish your goals depends on your desire for personal development, your commitment and the factors driving you to seek counseling in the first place.
Why shouldn’t I just take medication?
Medication can be effective but it, alone, cannot solve all issues. Sometimes medication is needed in conjunction with counseling. Our work together is designed to explore and unpack the problems you are experiencing and expand on your strengths. This can help you accomplish your personal goals.

Questions & Answers (click to expand)

Like most specialty providers, I do not participate in any or most insurance plans. Paying out-of-pocket is a great option for people who want maximum privacy, confidentiality and flexibility.

Sliding scale spots are available.

Can I use out-of-network benefits?

In some cases, you may be eligible to use out-of-network insurance benefits. You will be responsible for paying for each session in full at time of appointment. If appropriate, I will provide a super bill each month you can submit to your insurance company for reimbursement.

How much will I pay for therapy using out-of-network benefits?

You can use the out-of-network reimbursement calculator below to get an individualized estimate of what your costs will be using your out-of-network benefits!

If you have out-of-network benefits, they typically will reimburse you for 60-80% of the cost of each session.

If appropriate, I will provide you with monthly invoices called a “super bill” which will include all of the necessary information for your claims to be processed.

Insurance

For insurance and rate questions, please contact my practice manager, Tamera Wise, at 951-288-7444.

I’d recommend asking these questions to your insurance provider to help determine your benefits:

  • Does my health insurance plan include mental health benefits?
  • Do I have a deductible? If so, what is it and have I met it yet?
  • Does my plan limit how many sessions per calendar year I can have? If so, what is the limit?
  • Do I need written approval from my primary care physician in order for services to be covered?
