Jan Quirl

Hi! I'm Jan Quirl, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Professional Art Therapist with 30 years of counseling experience as an independent practitioner. I have three Master's Degrees: Master of Education, Master of Science in Social Work from the University of Texas in Austin, two years of graduate coursework, and two years of supervision in Art Therapy from Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, NY, and a Master of Divinity degree from Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary. I have two years of experience in training and residency as a hospital chaplain and two years of experience as a hospice chaplain and social worker.

I build strong therapeutic relationships with my clients and believe we can work together as a team to overcome challenges to create the kind of life you want to have. I love the work I do and am committed to each of my clients. I'm relaxed though direct, and focus both on challenges and successes. My biggest strength is fully committing to assist my clients with making positive changes in their lives. I look forward to meeting you soon!

Positive therapy, solution-focused, cognitive behavioral, supportive, psychodynamic, and art therapy- if this is an interest of my clients.

I'll complete the initial assessment and treatment plan to identify your goals for therapy. I'll also ask you to let me know the challenges you're facing as well as the strengths you have to meet them.
