Therapists » Clinical Social Work/Therapist
I am Jill Hughes, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience in counseling and care management. I have worked with children, adolescents, adults, and aging clients in individual, couples, family, and group therapy to address concerns about the self and relationships. I have a background in medical social services and am passionate about helping adults and children who are managing chronic illnesses and conditions that impact daily function, long-term health, and quality of life. View 5 Photos I completed my Master's degree in Social Work at The University of Georgia and obtained my T-5 Teaching Certificate in Georgia, which is the equivalent of a master's level teaching degree, from Piedmont University. I began my professional career working with adults in protective services and children in foster care, and I understand their emotional needs. My goal is for individuals and families to feel comfortable and safe while working toward their goals, managing emotions, increasing connectedness, improving relationships, and making life transitions to achieve the quality of life they yearn for and so deserve.
