Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Illinois, and I am a virtual practice. I received my Masters from the Loyola University Chicago and have been in this industry for almost 20 years. I help young adults and adults struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, and childhood-trauma become the best versions of themselves. I very much like a positive and strength-based approach to therapy. I think it is important to find balance in your life and it starts with improving self-esteem.

From the outside, your life may look put together. You handle responsibilities, show up for others, and keep things moving. But internally, you might feel anxious, overwhelmed, burned out, or disconnected from yourself. If you’re used to being the strong one, it can be hard to admit when you need support. You don’t have to keep carrying everything on your own. I help adults who are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, and chronic stress move beyond just getting through the day and start feeling more like themselves again. Together, we focus on real, lasting change so you can feel calmer, more grounded, and more in control of your life. As a licensed therapist and U.S. Air Force veteran, I understand the weight of high responsibility, constant pressure, and the expectation to hold everything together. My approach is compassionate, practical, and focused on what actually works in everyday life. I use evidence-based approaches like CBT, trauma-informed care, and strengths-based therapy to help you understand what you’re experiencing while building tools you can rely on outside of sessions. I specialize in trauma, PTSD, anxiety, and depression, and I also support clients through burnout, life transitions, relationship challenges, caregiving stress, and grief. Therapy with me is a space where you can slow down, feel understood, and reconnect with yourself without judgment. If you’re ready to feel better and make meaningful changes, I’d be glad to connect. I currently have daytime availability and welcome you to reach out to get started.

Hi this is Carol. I am a licensed independent clinical social worker in eight states. My career started in Pennsylvania where I attended Chestnut Hill College and received my Master's in Counseling Psychology, Marriage and Family Therapy Option. It continued in upstate Pennsylvania where I attended Elmira College (M.S.Ed) and attended SUNY University of Buffalo (MSW). I capped those off with a Psy.D. from Cal Southern University, Magnum Cum Laude 2012. I hold an LCSW in PA, VA, NC, TX, IL and FL. I hold an LISW-CP in South Carolina, and LICSW in RI and MA. I facilitate stress reduction meditations several times weekly on an internet platform for Mindful Leaders. I am a certified AADC in South Carolina.

My vision is to let people know there is a place where they can be heard, while being empowered and uplifted. My work focuses on helping my clients identify their strengths and teaching them tools to help not only cope, but also heal. I use a therapeutic process that focuses on my clients' needs and goals; along with evidence-based practices to help my clients resolve their issues and renew their lives.

I’m a licensed therapist, single mother, and natural healer who brings both clinical expertise and deep intuitive understanding into my work. My path into this field wasn’t just academic—it’s personal. I’ve lived through family dynamics, relationship challenges, emotional pain, and rebuilding, which allows me to meet my clients with genuine empathy, not just theory. I work with women, men, and couples who feel overwhelmed, stuck in patterns, or disconnected from themselves. Many of my clients are high-functioning on the outside—caregivers, professionals, parents—but internally feel anxious, unfulfilled, or unsure how to move forward. My approach blends evidence-based therapy with a deeper, more holistic lens. I pay attention not just to what’s happening cognitively, but emotionally and relationally—helping you understand the “why” beneath your patterns so real, lasting change can happen. If you’re looking for a therapist who is both grounded and deeply perceptive, structured yet human, I offer a space where you can be fully seen and supported.

My path to becoming a therapist has been driven by a deep sense of purpose. I've always felt most authentic when helping others find their way through difficult times.

You may be someone others rely on—at work, in your relationships, or within your family—but internally you feel overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally drained. You might find yourself overthinking conversations, struggling to set boundaries, or feeling responsible for everyone else’s needs while your own take a back seat. I work with adults navigating anxiety, stress, burnout, and relationship challenges. Many of my clients are high-functioning individuals who feel stuck in patterns like overthinking, people-pleasing, or difficulty communicating their needs. I also have a strong interest in working with veterans and understand the unique stressors that can come with both military and post-service life.

I believe that everyone has inherent strength. While I can be direct and to the point, I understand that this conversation is about your life, not mine. I also believe in the power of laughter and that everyone is capable of leading their best life. I live in a multi dog/cat/parrot household and odds are good you will not just hear them but may occasionally see them. No worries they don’t judge and have been sworn to HIPAA secrecy.

I have experience in supervision/training, consultation, outreach, individual, group psychotherapy, and couples counseling. My areas of interest include life transition, family of origin issues, anxiety, grief, loss, racial stressors, relationship issues, intersectionality, and multicultural perspectives. I believe in creating a safe, empathetic, and supportive space to explore challenges, gain insight, improve self-awareness and self-acceptance, develop coping mechanisms, enhance communication, and break unhealthy, non-productive patterns, ultimately leading to more enriched, empowered, and productive life experiences and relationships.

Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in the state of Missouri and Illinois. I have experience working with children, adolescents and adults from diverse backgrounds and in a variety of settings. Life comes with many challenges and we often find ourselves overwhelmed by what has come our way. Together we can identify concerns and find ways to move through life challenges. Through exploring and learning ways to manage emotions, I feel there are opportunities for growth. I believe it is important to identify individual strengths and will guide you towards positive self worth. Whether you are looking for short-term or long-term counseling, I will work with you to achieve a greater self-fulfillment.

I am a LCSW in the state of Illinois and have been practicing for over 10 years. I have experience in the health care field, working with adults of all ages, understanding the aging process, and the many ways that grief appears in our lives. I am a certified grief counselor and help my clients to understand, normalize, and accept the grieving process as they work through these difficult feelings. My practice is focused on using a supportive and collaborative approach to help my clients find strength and resilience in their lives.

Hi there, I’m Shelia Do you feel like the weight of the world is weighing you down? Life’s struggles are becoming unmanageable? Managing family, relationships and job is getting too hard? I help clients find a healthy perception of themselves and strengthen their relationships. We can partner to identify what works and what doesn’t to create a new path that works better.
