About Jataun
Jataun Rollins is an Illinois licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 11 years in private practice and earlier clinical work beginning in 2002. She helps people with relationship strain, family concerns, career setbacks, and coping with life changes. Her work also addresses coaching needs and a range of family-related issues such as blended family challenges, fatherhood concerns, and adoption or foster care questions.
Rollins often focuses on patterns that come from the family a person grew up in, including family of origin issues and ongoing family problems. She also supports people dealing with abandonment feelings, infidelity, guilt and shame, loneliness, and decisions around divorce or separation. Financial worries, caregiver stress, and questions about life purpose are part of her practice too.
Her approach draws on Trauma-Focused Therapy and practical, skills-based tools. She uses breathing and mindfulness practices for short in-session regulation. She also incorporates cognitive-behavioral techniques, journaling, and homework to build new habits between meetings.
Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. Rollins frames the client as the expert on their life and works as a guide to help people reframe patterns and reduce burdens. She emphasizes active exercises and clear steps people can use outside sessions.
Clients can expect straightforward language and practical tasks rather than abstract theory. Rollins began private practice in 2012 after early counseling work at a community faith setting, and she has continued to work with adults on relational and life-transition concerns since then.
How Trauma-Focused Work and Skills Transfer Online
Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on reducing the hold of past distressing events on current life. It involves identifying how early experiences affect present reactions and practicing strategies that change those responses. This approach can help with family of origin issues, abandonment feelings, and relationship patterns.Mindfulness and breath work are used as brief regulation tools that people can apply between sessions. These practices teach simple ways to reduce immediate tension and improve focus before tackling deeper patterns in therapy.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process helps set clear short-term objectives and homework so progress is measurable.
