About Me

Welcome to Encouraging You! My name is Jill Dodge and I am a licensed clinical social worker. I have worked as a therapist for over 40 years in a variety of settings as well as lead multiple retreats and workshops. I intend to share topics that will hopefully encourage you as you navigate through the many situations and issues that we face.  I want to share topics such as: “How to know if you are “Burning out;” “Dealing with Re-entry Blues,” “Why triangles in relationships just don’t work,”  and Parenting Prodigals to name a few of the topics. Much of the material will be from my observations and experience as a therapist, mother, wife, daughter, sister,  and Christ-follower. My hope is that this blog will  Encourage YOU!!!
