Hello! My name is Gayle. I am kind and warm, but honest and straightforward. My therapeutic approach is non-judgmental, meaning I will meet you with empathy and understanding, regardless of the issues that are causing you distress. At times, life's stressors seem insurmountable, and it feels as though it’s difficult to just get through the day. I can help guide you toward a resolution and healing. I am adept at working with individuals or couples with a variety of issues, such as depression, anxiety, relational conflict, trauma, life transitions, and I specialize in OCD and BiPolar Disorders.

Life can feel overwhelming at times, whether you're managing anxiety, depression, past trauma, or navigating major life changes. You don't have to go through it alone. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I provide compassionate, evidence-based telehealth therapy through EmpathicPath, making it easy to access support from the comfort and privacy of your own home.

My goal is to create a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered. Together, we'll explore what's holding you back, build practical coping strategies, and work toward greater resilience, emotional well-being, and a more fulfilling life. Wherever you are in your journey, I'm here to help you take the next step with confidence and hope.

Hi, I'm Heather! I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and I have been working in the field of mental health since graduating with my Master's in 2009. I have worked as a crisis intervention counselor with teens, and, more recently, I have been working in private practice with teens and adults from various backgrounds since 2017. I earned my Bachelor's degree in Psychology from the University of Missouri - Columbia. After graduating, I then earned my Master's degree in Community Counseling from Concordia University - Chicago. From there, I started working with people to help them make the changes needed to improve their lives - and I have never looked back! I truly enjoy what I get to do for a living and would feel privileged and honored to have the opportunity to work with you to improve your mental and emotional wellness! Whether seeking therapy for the first time or continuing your journey towards improved mental health, I aim to provide a safe, non-judgmental space to support you as you work on your personal goals. MY goal is to cater your therapy experience to what you need, focusing on where you are at in your life and where you ultimately want to be. Using an eclectic blend of treatment methods (including CBT and person-centered among others), I focus on compassionate and empathic care designed with your needs in mind. Whether wanting to develop coping strategies for mental health concerns like depression and anxiety, to learn how to manage stress well, or to forge a deeper understanding of how and why life's experiences impact day-to-day functioning, my hope is to collaborate with you every step of the way to reach whatever goal(s) you may have.

Hello! I aim to help you grow through what you go through. I’m someone who truly values depth, authenticity, and connection, and I show up to this work with a lot of curiosity and care. I genuinely want to understand you, not just what you are going through, but how you experience the world. I’m driven by compassion and empathy, and I focus on building a strong, trusting relationship where you feel safe enough to be real, whether that looks messy, uncertain, or still unfolding. I’m not here to judge or “fix” you, but to walk alongside you as you make sense of your experiences, connect more deeply with yourself, and move toward a life that feels more aligned and fulfilling. My approach is strengths-based, holistic, and tailored to you as an individual. I draw from modalities like CBT, DBT, mindfulness, somatic techniques, and parts work, depending on what best fits your needs and goals. I believe in meeting you where you are, validating your experiences, and helping you uncover your own insight, strengths, and direction. My goal is to create a space where you feel supported, understood, and empowered to grow into the version of yourself that feels most authentic to you.

I"m a LCSW who helps individuals, couples, and families create relationships that feel safe, steady, and connected. My approach is trauma-informed, attachment-based, and practical. I believe people don't need perfection - They need clarity, effective tools, and a therapist who shows up with warmth and a grounded presence. I help clients understand what's happening in their nervous system, why certain patterns keep repeating, and how to shift those patterns in ways that feel sustainable. Whether you're navigating anxiety, relationship conflict, being emotionally overwhelmed, or developmental trauma, I offer a calm , structured space where you can slow down, make sense of your experience, and build new ways of relating to yourself and others. My work integrates solutions grounded in trauma informed practices, attachment theory and systems work. I am trained in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral (TF-CBT) therapy as well as Structured Psychotherapy for Adolescents Responding to Chronic Stress (SPARCS). But more importantly, I tailor therapy to the person in front of me. You won't get jargon or judgement. You will get clear guidance, steady support, and strategies you can use in real life... with your partner, your kids, your coworkers and yourself. Clients often share they appreciate my calm presence and straightforward style. I am not here to talk at you; I am here to walk with you. I bring both clinical expertise and lived experience of navigating a blended family, parenting neurodiverse children, and building healthy communication in high stress environments. I understand what it feels like to want change but feel stuck in old cycles. If you are looking for a therapist who is warm, direct, and committed to helping you grow, I would be honored to work with you. Together we will build clarity, connection and spark change - one step at a time.

Hi, I am Jenn, and I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, Certified Telemental Health Provider, and the owner of Epijennetics Counseling and Consulting in Libertyville, Illinois. Epijennetics Counseling is located just outside of downtown Libertyville off of Milwaukee Avenue in Forum Square. You can read more about my work and practice at www.epijennetics.com. As a therapist, I hold the belief that we cannot fully understand mental health without first understanding the impact of our stories, our relationships, and our beliefs about ourselves, others, and the world. I am passionate about helping clients increase their self-awareness of these things so that they are more in touch with their feelings, needs, and desires, and are more equipped with the knowledge and tools to create the life that they want. By utilizing assessments such as the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator to better understand personality and the Young Schema Assessment to explore harmful thoughts and beliefs that came from previous experiences and messages received during childhood years, I help clients discover hidden obstacles that keep them from having the life they dream of. I have found that when we put in the work to make sense of ourselves and our stories, we not only heal and grow ourselves but also develop more compassion and increased understanding of others. Often this growth and healing process lessens mental health symptoms such as anxiety and depression and improves overall quality of life, as well as relationship quality. If you are interested in doing some exploring, I would love to hear from you! (Please make an in-office appointment if you are booking Couple or Family therapy sessions.)

Hi, I'm Amanda. I have over 15 years' experience as a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Illinois. I earned my Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology from Lewis University. I provide telehealth services to individuals over the age of 18 who are experiencing anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship issues, grief, stress, and work/life concerns. I love helping and empowering individuals develop the skills that increase life satisfaction and wellbeing.

Welcome—I’m truly glad you’re here. I bring a warm, grounded, and collaborative approach to this work, shaped by graduating with honors in my Master’s program and earning my Bachelor’s in Social Work with a Minor in Human Services. With 17 years of experience supporting at‑risk youth and families across Illinois, Kansas, and Missouri—and roughly five years in a direct therapeutic role—I’ve learned that healing is most powerful when mind, body, and spirit are invited into the process. My background includes specialized training in DBT, ASIST, trauma‑responsive care, and emerging work with elders through grief support and medical assessments. My practice continues to expand as I deepen my understanding of military culture and the unique stressors faced by Service Members, Veterans, and their families. I integrate training in reintegration support, deployment‑related stress, and identity transitions to help military‑connected clients navigate life with clarity and strength. I am honored to now offer supportive therapeutic services to clients in the state of Virginia. As a Licensed Massage Therapist, Somatic Therapy remains one of my first passions and is available for in‑person sessions. This body‑based approach helps clients release stored tension, regulate the nervous system, and reconnect with the wisdom of their physical and emotional selves. When the body softens, the mind opens—and healing becomes more accessible, more intuitive, and more aligned. My work is guided by a simple belief: ~When people feel safe, seen, and supported, they naturally move toward wholeness.~ It’s an honor to walk alongside you as you reconnect with yourself and step into a life that feels grounded, authentic, and spiritually aligned.

Hello. I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counsellor (LCPC) in Illinois. I received my Doctorate degree in Clinical Forensic Psychology from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology. I received my Master's of Science degree in Community Counseling from National Louis University. I have over 2o years of experience in the field and enjoy providing client centered care to individuals of all ages.

I am a compassionate and dedicated Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) committed to providing a safe and supportive environment for individuals seeking to enhance their mental well-being and alleviate symptoms of distress. Holding a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology and bringing years of experience in the medical field (EMS), I have gained a deep understanding of the complex challenges individuals encounter in both their professional and personal lives.

I would best describe myself as someone who seeks to provide a compassionate and effective approach to people seeking change. It takes a lot to become a therapist. I often think of a therapist as a rock in a tumbler. We spend a lot of time smoothing out our own rough edges so that we can be helpful to others. Your life is your own. I work with people to discover what they want and what's standing in their way.

As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC), my mission is to guide individuals on a journey back to their innate wisdom, compassion, peace, and confidence. I often think of the story of Michelangelo, who described sculpting as the act of chipping away marble to reveal the beauty already within. This metaphor beautifully captures the counseling process: together, we identify and remove the barriers obscuring your true SELF, allowing your inner brilliance to shine through. My approach is rooted in deep compassion for the human experience. I bring to our work a blend of trauma-informed care and evidence-based practices, enriched by certifications in Mind-Body Bridging, Cognitively-Based Compassion Training, and Cultivating Emotional Balance. I draw from powerful therapeutic frameworks, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Mindful Self-Compassion, and Compassionate Inquiry, tailoring each session to meet your unique needs.
