Hi, I’m Jill Yerkes, a licensed clinical social worker in Illinois with over 30 years of experience helping individuals and families navigate life’s challenges. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs.
My primary interest involves assisting women age 50 and beyond in living the second act of life with clarity and purpose. Whether you are navigating the "empty nest," recalibrating your identity after a long career, managing the "sandwich generation" pressure of aging parents or the shifts of menopause, this stage of life demands a new kind of resilience.
Remember, we aren't just looking back at where you've been; we are looking forward at who you are becoming. Take that first step and contact me today.

Your hands are full right now: the anxiety that hums under everything, the stress of juggling relationships, career, and the self-care that keeps slipping to the bottom of your list. Maybe a transition has left you questioning who you are, or you're grieving the loss of someone you love, a relationship, or a future you'd imagined. Wherever you are, you don't have to carry it alone. I work with individuals through these moments, with a particular focus on women's health and wellness.
