Mettawa, IL - Accepting clients in IL

I’m dedicated to helping individuals navigate life by building on your strengths and navigating life's many stressors. So much of our minds are focused on what’s happened in the past, or worrying about our future, and that’s why I like to utilize mindfulness and body-based practices to help ground you in the present moment and decrease that inner critic voice that tries to hold us back. Therapy with me goes beyond just talking about your problems. I like to let my clients set the pace for treatment, meaning we will talk about what you want to focus on (today's problems, the past, the future, skills building, etc.) and I respect when someone is not ready to begin working through a concern in their life. I will always challenge you to consider the implications of life's stressors and focus on how best to support you by building on your strengths.

Hi there, my name’s Stacee and I’m a transgender therapist who specializes in work with adult LGBTQ+ clients. There are so many parts to our shared experience: Trauma that’s related to our families-of-origin. For many of us, our families were our first bullies. Grief from our losses of intimate partners, lovers, friends, family, and pets. Anxiety and perfectionism that comes with trying to prove our worth in the world. Spiritual trauma from histories with shame-based religious systems. History with abusive or exploitative relationships, whether bullying bosses, predatory ex-partners or family members. Sometimes, we allowed ourselves to be exploited if it meant we could matter to someone. Weird shaming dynamics that exist within our queer subcultures around body image, shape, and size; our gender behaviors; and even social factors like a decision to live sober. Legitimate fear for our own lives and the safety of our families that’s in response to government actions. Our histories can show up in complicated ways: intrusive thoughts and nightmares, panic and anxiety, compulsive behaviors that once soothed us but now are destructive, cycles of depression. Then we experience guilt and shame that comes with the belief that we should ‘just get over it,’ just as we’ve had to forgive and get over so many things. Yet, there are some things we can't just get over on our own. This is the subject of my self-help book, The Healing Otherness Handbook. I look forward to meeting you and learning how I can help you get your fabulous back, or maybe discover it for the first time.
