Family Counseling in California
The demands of public safety work can reach far beyond a shift. Family counseling offers space to talk about stress at home, understand one another, and work toward more useful ways of connecting.
Jill Peeler, LMFT, supports couples and families in person in Novato and through telehealth in California. Peeler Public Safety Mental Health and Family Counseling welcomes conversations about the relationships that matter to you.
When work and home pull in different directions
Irregular schedules, worry about a loved one’s safety, difficult calls, and exhaustion can make everyday conversations harder. You may notice repeated arguments, distance, or trouble explaining what you need. Counseling provides a setting to explore those patterns together.
You do not have to agree on everything before reaching out. Jill can help you clarify your goals and discuss whether couples or family sessions are the right fit.
What sessions can focus on
Conversations may include communication, reconnecting after a shift, setting boundaries around work, family stress, grief, or adjusting to a career transition. The focus depends on your family’s concerns and the goals you establish with Jill.
Jill’s familiarity with first responder culture offers context for the work. Each person’s perspective still deserves attention; counseling begins with your own experience rather than assumptions about your family.
Meeting in Novato or online
In-person appointments are at 1683 Novato Blvd, Suite 1B, Novato, CA 94947. Ask about telehealth when participants are located in California. Jill will discuss suitability, privacy, and how sessions would be structured before you begin.
Take the first step
Contact Nicole Peeler, Scheduling Coordinator, about availability, scheduling, and fees. A brief inquiry is enough; leave sensitive family or clinical details out of ordinary email. You can discuss your questions about the counseling process directly with Jill.
