Dr. Jill Hersh, PSY.D

She seemed to find any push back or resistance, from my VERY sweet 10 year old overwhelming and was constantly talking about her own 'boundaries,' like maybe she learned in grad school, but felt totally inappropriate considering the level of what was happening in session. Also, she told my daughter OVER AND OVER again, that she wasn't making her be there. So, I kept having to then tell my daughter, 'well, I'm making you be here...' I specifically asked her to stop this behavior, which she did not. When we finally decided to cut ties in session, because she didn't find my child motivated enough to make change (and we agreed she was a terrible fit), she talked about very extreme treatment options (inpatient, intensive outpatient) in FRONT OF MY DAUGHTER, who is definitely not having enough disruption in life to warrant this. Very focused on finding more diagnosis for my daughter (lots of evals) INSTEAD of focusing on building a relationship and trust. In my opinion, needs supervision.

I would highly recommend Dr. Jill Hersh, she was an incredible provider and helped our family tremendously. Particularly with OCD/ Anxiety and family counseling, she has a valuable blend of clinical expertise and empathy for effectively treating OCD and anxiety.
