Licensed to practice in Illinois and accepts 37 insurances. Specializes in Addiction, Anxiety, Depression and 7 more.
My name is Vince. I’m a licensed clinical social worker. I’ve worked in inpatient rehab as well as outpatient mental health facilities. I help people manage their anxiety and depression by learning coping skills. I help people process their past experiences and help people identify problem areas to improve. I help people develop their identity and their self-esteem to help become the person they need to be for themselves in their family.
I’m an easy-going person and during the first session I’m usually listening to what kinds of problems a person is struggling with. I’m not the kind of person to oppress upon their own values and opinions. I rather focus on what the values and opinions are of the client which help me guide the therapeutic process. Also, in other words, the first session is a lot of me listening and discovering things that we can work on together as therapeutic alliance.
I would say my strength provider is my patience and willingness to understand where a person is coming from without judgment. I tried to create a safe space so people can see exactly what’s on their mind so we can see the problem as it is. I feel that I am also very capable of challenging people’s thought processes and cognitive distortions so that way they can learn to think better.
I have experience working with people that struggle with substance abuse addiction, as well as other kinds of addictions. I help treat people that struggle with anxiety and depression. I help people process difficult emotions that make life more difficult and help people come to a point of acceptance.
