“At the age of 64 I was probably more apprehensive than most in seeking professional psychotherapy for the first time.  Jill Denton quickly put me at ease and seemed not one bit concerned about my age.  She was concerned about the obvious emotional distress and turmoil I was in and set out to find out what we could do about it.  Through a combination of suggested readings, sharing some of her own experiences, and a great deal of understanding and compassionate listening, Jill gradually led me to awareness of themes and behavior patterns that had caused difficulties most of my life.  With this awareness I have over time come to understand myself better and have been able to change many of the perceptions and behaviors that had caused me problems.  I continue to see Jill occasionally on a ‘tune-up’ basis, and enjoy talking with her as a well-educated person with broad general interests that go well beyond the ‘textbook psychology’ school.”
