Tina Jerolds, LCSW

Tina Jerolds is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Illinois with 22 years of clinical experience. She has supported people across the lifespan, from young children to older adults, and brings extensive experience in child welfare and mental health to her work. Her practice addresses a broad range of concerns, including depression, stress and anxiety, childhood and adult trauma and abuse, partner abuse and marital difficulties, motivation and self-esteem, parenting and other life transitions, addictions, grief, and a variety of mood and intimacy-related issues.

Tina draws from client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) as foundational approaches, and she integrates mindfulness-based techniques, solution-focused strategies, and crisis counseling when appropriate. She can also incorporate a faith-based Christian perspective for clients who prefer that framework. Her approach is tailored to each person, focusing on respect, sensitivity, and compassionate support while helping clients identify practical steps toward change and growth.

Tina earned a graduate degree in social work from Southern Illinois University with a concentration in mental health. She values the courage it takes to reach out for help and aims to provide a supportive space where someone can be heard and guided toward meaningful progress. Outside of her professional life she enjoys being outdoors - hiking, cycling, and walking her golden retriever Ruby - as well as writing, travel, and time with her husband and adult son.
