Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) based in Illinois. I received my Master's from Heidelberg College and have practiced for seven years. , I’m a counselor who specializes in working with children and adolescents, helping them navigate the challenges they face and supporting their emotional well-being. My focus is on providing a safe, welcoming space where kids and teens can express themselves, explore their feelings, and develop tools to manage life’s ups and downs. I work with young people who are dealing with a range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, ADHD, anger, and adjustment issues, as well as those who may be struggling with academic pressures or social challenges. My approach is client-centered, meaning I believe each person has unique stories and needs, and I’m here to listen and help guide them through their journey. I often use techniques like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients understand how their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are connected and to learn ways to shift negative patterns. I also incorporate creative methods, such as play and art-based activities, especially with younger children, to make therapy more engaging and comfortable.

Hi I'm Gaby. If you have been feeling sick and stuck in a negative thought process and wondering if there is anyone who can understand or help you, let's talk. I am here to help you experience change and escape from the pattern of life that has left you feeling different, unwell, and stuck. I am first and foremost a Trauma Informed Recovery Therapist. This means that I believe in you and I believe in your goals and I know we can find a way to get there while acknowledging all that you have been through. I realized I wanted to become a therapist during a serendipitous summer camp experience—40 feet in the air on the high ropes course, I learned that I loved helping people process challenging experiences in creative ways. I love using a lot of different approaches depending on what we are working on. Some of my favorite methods are cognitive behavioral therapy, positive psychology, strength based therapy, and psychodynamic therapy. I have been doing individual therapy with teens and adults of all ages since 2020. Previously, I worked as a clinical consultant, clinical director, and clinical supervisor in specialized mental health rehabilitation settings. I have been supporting people in creating and meeting their goals since 2012. I have used all of my past work experiences to learn how to work with clients to explore dreams, and strengths, and learn how to make these things their reality. I use eclectic strategies to support people as they sort through their lives and figure out ways to move forward in a new light. I believe that therapy is a special space that allows a person to sit, process, and problem-solve in a way that can’t always be done in day-to-day.

Hello! I'm Michelle. As a dedicated mental health therapist, I am committed to guiding individuals on their journey towards well-being with a strong emphasis on self-care and intention. My goal is to get my clients started with building awareness of the patterns and behaviors causing distress, setting out to build strategies into seeing the “bigger picture”, and then making the choice to shift away into "new and different". I believe that the mental health journey can feel different for everyone and is valid for all. It’s addressing the pile-on effects of everyday stress and learning how to breathe through anxiety and panic attacks. It’s establishing and keeping a daily routine as part of ADHD symptom management and finding self-compassion when experiencing depressive thoughts. There is no perfect or prescriptive way to approach the process of mental well-being. My role as a therapist is to support, facilitate, and provide collaborative space to examine all the pieces.

I am also IFS informed, which helps me provide a well-rounded and integrative treatment experience. I have a particular focus on working with survivors of abuse (Domestic, incestual, sexual, physical, etc). Additionally, I support clients dealing with PTSD, C-PTSD, dissociative disorders, anxiety, mood disorders, depression, and women’s issues. My goal is to create a safe, empathetic environment where clients can explore their struggles and work towards meaningful healing and growth. Staying current with the latest developments in psychotherapy and trauma care is important to me, as I believe it’s essential for providing effective and evidence-based treatment. I am committed to empowering my clients on their journey, facilitating their transformation, and supporting their path to a more fulfilling life.

I work with clients who are struggling with grief, anxiety, depression or trauma. I also work with clients who may need assistance in processing everyday life stressors and want a supportive therapist whom they can confide in who will also challenge them and assist with problem-solving. I also work with those facing reproductive challenges. As a compassionate and empathetic therapist, I understand the complex emotional and psychological impact that infertility and miscarriage can have. I can: • Support you in maintaining hope, peace and positivity while navigating uncertainty and help you build resiliency as you work through obstacles. • Help you to recognize and access your deeper intuition, so you are better equipped to honor your body, spirit and mind with the highest intention throughout your journey. • Work with you on increasing clarity and purpose around your fertility journey. • Utilize a holistic approach to address integrative lifestyle strategies that may be beneficial to your fertility path. • Assist you in addressing relationship difficulties that can arise out of the stress of fertility challenges, help you develop strategies to increase intimacy with your partner and foster healthy communication. For women and men who have experienced reproductive loss: • The devastating and seemingly invisible pain of losing a pregnancy is unique in that it involves not only the loss of your baby, but also involves the loss of the future - and there is no accepted way to mark that loss. Sometimes it seems that friends and family members expect the person to move on quickly. Partners often grieve differently - and for men, the trauma of miscarriage is often overlooked. Also, some women may suffer guilt or shame associated with the loss that doesn't tend to occur with other types of grieving. • There is no universal template for grief. Together, we will address your unique needs as you work through your grieving process.

My name is Tanice and as a licensed therapist, I enjoy helping people improve their mental health in a safe, non-judgmental space. I believe people deserve a space where they can be listened to and receive the support they need. Therapy with me is usually a mixture of conversation, skill-building, and challenging old patterns in supportive ways. I help people to build resilience and take steps to create the life they desire.
