Jill Peyton M.Ed., LPC, LMFT, NCC

Welcome to My Website

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor(LPC).
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist(LMFT).
I am a National Certified Counselor(NCC).

I am an approved supervisor for persons working toward licensure as an LPC or LMFT

My practice is concentrated in the areas of distressed individuals, couples, and families. I also counsel with children and adolescents, particularly those with behavioral/conduct issues, as well as those with developmental disabilities. Behavior management programs for children and adolescents, with and without disabilities, are also part of my training and expertise.

Please see Play Therapy Page to view the play room in our new state of the art counseling and training center, the Celebration Hope Center.

I have written two workbooks that I use with psychoeducational groups. These two separate courses :

  • Love Theory and Love Therapy
  • Love Therapy for Married Couples
each teach individuals and married couples skills to improve their self-understanding and their constrained relationships with significant others.

Please see the Love Therapy Page to learn more about the Love Therapy courses.

Clients are seen by appointment at The Celebration Hope Center, which is a program of Celebration Church, located at 1901-B Airline Dr., Metairie, La. 70001.

I counsel my clients from a Family Systems perspective and a Christian world view.

Healthy family life is becoming more and more of a curiosity in America, as couples and families get caught in a web of conflict and disagreement. The constantly changing standard for acceptable behavior in our society, combined with personality differences, ordinary stressors of life and raising children, and very real issues of power and control, all take their toll.

Added to this are the ingrained prototypes learned in our families of origin that can gradually take over our thinking and reacting in an almost unconscious way. Over time couples move away from the caring patterns and loving intentions that shaped their courtship and early married life.

Family life becomes more of a battleground than a place of refuge and security from the cares and concerns of the world. Family and/or couples therapy are forms of treatment that help families and couples reestablish the home environment and appreciation for each other that we all desire to have.

As a licensed marriage and family therapist I am able to help you improve your relationships with significant others, and come to understand yourself better in order to live a more empowering and fulfilling life.
