For over seven years Billie served as a volunteer where she was instrumental in creating a partnership with Antioch University Counseling Center to make mental health support available at the Senior Center.

Ms. Klayman also volunteered as a drop-in counselor and this program is still offered on the first and third Saturdays of each month from noon to 2 pm. Billie is also well-versed in working with diverse populations including youth, veterans, LGBT and people of color.

In practice of therapy for 11 years, Billie has been fully licensed since July 18, 2012. She identifies herself as a Meaning Centered Therapist and believes that all of us can create happiness in our lives. .
