On this episode, I speak with Jill Johnson-Young aka “The Rebellious Widow” about the importance of learning how to work effectively with grief. Jill educates about grief from both professional training and from being widowed twice.
Jill Johnson-Young, LCSW is the CEO of Central Counseling Services in Riverside, California. She and her business partner opened CCS 12 years ago, and it has grown to include three locations. Jill’s career has included more than a decade with hospice as a medical social worker and as director of social workers, chaplains, and grief staff, and child welfare for close to two decades, including adoptions.
Jill has authored several books for children and adults on grief. Her most recent book, The Rebellious Widow, was released in March of this year. Jill and Debra Joy Hart provide a weekly grief chat on Facebook Live, and Jill also facilitates a monthly dementia support group in the community, and grief support groups online on a rolling basis.
