Hi there, my names is Meghan Skidmore and I am a licensed clinical social worker in Northern Illinois. I have 18 years of experience as a clinical social worker. I have previously worked with children in mental health crisis as well as with children and families involved with the child welfare system. I also have worked the past 15 years as a school social worker, working with children and families to help them be successful in and out of the school setting.
I will meet you where you are in your life. We will work together to help you start to identify and move forward with your goals and achieve your dreams. I enjoy building on your strengths to help you overcome your struggles. I focus on healing past hurts, and looking to the future with optimism and perseverance. I work from a client centered, strengths-based approach and look forward to helping you reach your goals.
I use a variety of techniques in my practice based on the client's needs and goals. I have worked with Cognitive Behavioral therapy, Systems, theory, Strengths-based theory, mindfulness, Social-thinking, Solution-focused therapy, etc. My goal is to make you feel comfortable and build your trust in me. I hope to help others find their best true self.
I love to meet and work with all ages of clients. Currently, I have worked with ages 3-60 in the home, school, community, and in the clinical setting. I am excited to see how I can help clients to become a better version of themselves and to work towards their goals and dreams. I look forward to continuing to build my practice with Grow and helping others along the way.
