Welcome! Therapy is an invitation for healing and change, so congratulate yourself for taking this step toward transformation in your life. My name is Bridget, founder of Mind Move Therapy, where I provide psychotherapy, somatic movement therapy, and physical health coaching. I approach therapy from a holistic perspective—integrating emotional, physical, and cognitive aspects of well-being. I specialize in somatics, emphasizing that the body holds emotions, trauma responses, and stress, so healing involves working with the body as well as the mind. Clients often report meaningful progress in therapy with me. You can overcome symptoms of trauma and stress, heal from the past, and move toward a happier, more meaningful life. I specialize in treating various traumas, including childhood trauma, abuse, loss, and PTSD. I specialize in the treatment of stress, anxiety and depression. I work with clients with Borderline Personality tendencies or those impacted by BPD. I work with clients with Body Dysmorphic Disorder and other somatic issues. I support clients with addiction issues. Every client walks a unique path and deserves to be listened to and understood in an empathetic way. I create a safe, therapeutic environment where clients have the opportunity to explore their thoughts, feelings and behaviors in which to gain insight, experience shifts in emotional states and find a renewed sense of mental and physical well-being.

Welcome! I'm Melissa =) Take a moment to acknowledge you've taken the first step towards bettering your mental health because let's be honest - starting therapy can be empowering, confusing, or scary, all at the same time. I strive to create a supportive and welcoming environment that allows clients to explore obstacles with concerns related to anxiety, depression, relationship issues,ADHD, healthy communication, and self-care, to name a few. My focus is with individual adults, as I am unable to see adolescents, families, or couples. I focus on helping adults develop assertive communication and boundaries with themselves and those around them that can help improve their quality of life. Counseling can foster personal development in whatever way you may be seeking and help build the life you so deeply deserve. I feel honored to hold and support this space with you. Not sure if you could use some help navigating life's challenges? Let's talk about the kind of support I can provide you. Bock a session with me to see if we're a good fit and how we can help you have more peace. Unfortunately, I am unable to provide documentation for ESA, work accommodations, court, legal, probation, surgical clearance, FMLA, Short Term Disability, etc. Thank you.

In my work my goal is to assist my clients to develop greater insight and effective strategies to manage stressful and distressing situations in their lives.

Do you struggle with people-pleasing, low self-worth, or painful relationships that leave you feeling like you’ve lost yourself? Maybe you grew up in a family that looked “fine” on the outside but left you with invisible scars of trauma. You might find yourself replaying old patterns—turning to food, restriction, or overexercise to cope, feeling guilty when you try to set boundaries, or wondering why you keep choosing partners who don’t treat you well. If you’re exhausted from trying to hold it all together while doubting yourself inside, therapy can help you finally break free.

I am a trauma-informed therapist who supports adults in reconnecting with themselves when life has felt overwhelming, demanding, or depleting for a long time. Many of the people I work with feel deeply, think deeply, and care deeply, and as a result, they may experience chronic stress, anxiety, burnout, emotional fatigue, or a sense of being disconnected from who they truly are. My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and grounded in compassion. I believe therapy works best when it feels human, relational, and supportive rather than clinical or judgmental. I aim to create a space where you feel safe to slow down, reflect, and explore what’s happening beneath the surface at a pace that feels right for you. I integrate somatic awareness, mindfulness, and evidence-based psychotherapy to help clients better understand their inner world and develop practical tools for everyday life. This means we may pay attention not only to thoughts and emotions, but also to how stress, patterns, and past experiences show up in the body. Together, we’ll work toward greater clarity, emotional regulation, self-trust, and resilience. I draw from integrative, trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and holistic frameworks, always tailoring therapy to your goals, strengths, values, and lived experience. I am especially mindful of working in a non-pathologizing way, supporting you without viewing you as broken or in need of fixing. I am based in Illinois and hold a Master of Social Work from Aurora University and a B.A. in Creative Writing and English from Southern New Hampshire University.

I’m a mental health professional with a deep and varied background in education, counseling, human services, and advocacy. Over the years, I’ve worked alongside adults, youth, and families navigating trauma, identity shifts, life transitions, and the lasting weight of systemic challenges like poverty, incarceration, and intergenerational trauma. I don’t just see symptoms, I see people. Whole people. And I meet them exactly where they are.

When everything feels like it’s piling up, having a space that feels steady and supportive can be a relief. I show up with warmth, calm energy, and genuine curiosity. Clients often describe me as someone who listens closely, helps them feel understood, and brings clarity without judgment. I’m practical and down-to-earth, but gentle in how I guide the work. I value honesty, balance, and helping people reconnect with who they are beneath the stress. My goal is to create a space where you feel supported, seen, and able to move at a pace that feels right for you.

Creating a space where you can find what works best for you in your journey. Focusing on strengths helps individuals recognize their own resilience and capabilities, which is vital for growth. By tailoring my approach to each person's unique situation, I honor their individuality and foster a deeper sense of self-understanding and agency. People often thrive when they feel heard and supported in a way that aligns with their own needs and goals, rather than being pushed into a redefined mold.
