Jill Avery

Jill Avery is a patient who came in for help after being beaten during a carjacking.

History
Jill was in the ER after being beaten during a carjacking after soccer practice. She had no memory of the event. Pete, who had been treating Jill for a torn rotator cuff, examined her and asked her to speak to Violet. She said she was fine other than being angry because she loved her car and school, but he insisted.

Jill saw Violet and they attempted memory recovery so she could remember what had happened and help the police catch her attacker.

After working with Violet, Pete noticed that Jill was in a lot more pain. He believed her work with Violet was hurting her and asked Violet to back off a little.

Jill came in and said the police had called. They think they had the guy who attacked her and wanted her to come in for a lineup. After identifying her attacker, she was upset because seeing his face again made her remember it and she was scared.

After a month of work, Jill was still only able to remember his face and she saw it everywhere. She didn't know how she could testify against him if she didn't remember. She wanted the fear to go away, so she refused to stop working. After a session, she was highly panicked. Pete was able to calm her down and get her to rest. He again asked Violet to stop.

A month later, at the trial, Jill was worried she couldn't do it, but Violet and Pete talked her through it and had her talk about what he'd done. She finally remembered the details of the attack. After her testimony, the jury found him guilty.
