Hi! My name is Jillian Canada, and I have lived in the state of Georgia my whole life. I found a passion for care and attended the University of Georgia where I received my Bachelor of Science in Psychology followed by the University of North Georgia where I received my Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I have experience working in private settings as well as community health centers with ages 4 years old and onward. I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and attachment. I love walking with others as they grow into who they want to be.

Hello there, my number one priority is to see clients within 1 to 5 business days to begin the process of assisting them with a hot topic known as "Life-ing." Today, I consider myself blessed because I find it rewarding in seeing clients reach their maximum potential. In addition to my mental health background for over 28 years, I have my own life experiences, coupled with being married to a minister, motherhood, and personal trauma, which have proven to be beneficial in my scope of practice.
I have done extensive work with grief/loss, anxiety, relational, premarital, substance use, and Christian Counseling.
I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), National Certified Counselor (NCC), and Certified Professional Clinical Supervisor (CPCS) with over a decade of experience working with adolescents, adults, couples, and families. I earned my Master’s in Counseling Psychology and have built my career serving individuals navigating trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, and high-pressure environments.
In addition to providing therapy, I serve as CEO of Success Brand Behavioral Health, where I lead a team of clinicians and continue to provide direct care. I’ve also worked extensively with youth and families involved in foster care and the juvenile justice system and currently teach graduate counseling students as an adjunct professor.
What this means for you: you’re working with a clinician who understands both complex clinical presentations and real-world stress. I’m structured, experienced, and deeply committed to helping clients move from insight to action.
For over 10 years, I have dedicated my practice to supporting children, teenagers, and their families through life's ups and downs. Whether your child is facing a specifically challenging or traumatic season, or simply trying to navigate the everyday stressors of growing up, my goal is to provide them with concrete, healthy coping skills to help them thrive.
I believe that true healing and growth happen within the context of the family. Because of this, a vital part of my work involves partnering directly with parents. I am passionate about helping you support your child, encouraging healthy communication, and establish clear, loving boundaries. Together, we can create a supportive home environment that allows your child to build resilience, find their voice, and truly be the best they can be.
As a board-certified clinical therapist, I view mental health as essential to overall well-being. Reaching out for support can be one of the hardest steps, and I’m proud of you for taking it.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Jonesboro
Searching for therapists in Jonesboro starts with knowing what kind of support you want from therapy. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, stress, or a major life change. As you compare therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties and training match your needs. A therapist’s profile can also show how they describe their approach, whether they use methods like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care, and what you can expect in sessions.
In a smaller city like Jonesboro, local therapist availability may be more limited than in larger metro areas. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still connecting you with a Georgia-licensed therapist. In-person care may be a good fit if you prefer a dedicated office setting, while virtual appointments may work better if your schedule, commute, or location makes travel harder. Before booking, check whether a therapist is accepting new patients, has appointment times that fit your calendar, and offers a free phone consultation. Reading bios closely can help you understand communication style and decide who may be a strong fit.
Therapy in Jonesboro can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find therapists who match your needs, accept your insurance, and are accepting new patients. You can enter your insurance details, view estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, compare therapist profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.
