Jill Groves

Jill Groves

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Hermosa Beach, CA


Hi, I'm Jill. I have been a licensed therapist since 2012. In the last 13 years I have worked in many settings, including a treatment center, hospital, school, and outpatient practice. In that time, I have learned a lot about the challenges we face as humans. But most importantly I have learned that in addition to coping with life's sttuggles, we also need to find purpose and meaning in these experiences moving forward.

My goal as a therapist is to be authentic, kind, and committed to your wellbeing. I strive to provide a space where you feel comfortable being honest with yourself and with me.
