Welcome! I’m so glad you have found your way here.
Often we get swept up in the competing demands around us and forgo what we need. We can lose ourselves without even realizing it or maybe we never even had the chance in the first place. Before we know it, we are stuck thinking, "Why can’t I seem to do what’s most important to me? What is most important to me anyway?" My hope is that together we can find the way through to heal and create a life you want to live. I think of my role as a guide offering a new perspective. A light in the dark.
A little background of me, my name is Kel and I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker from Illinois. I specialize in working with individuals experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, and grief. I am also passionate about navigating relationships, spirituality, and late diagnosed Autism. With my client centered approach we will tailor interventions to meet your specific needs. I am a Certified Autism Specialist and have training in IFS, DBT, CBT, MBSR, DIR, trauma informed care and enjoy incorporating art of all kinds. In addition, I am a Reiki Master and Certified Pranic Healer.
My previous experience includes 11 years of working in a variety of behavioral health settings, including outpatient therapy, intensive outpatient, inpatient, and residential programs. In 2017 I received my Masters Degree in Social Work from Aurora University.
I would love to meet with you, get to know you, and develop a plan together so we can get you where you want to go.

Finding the right therapist can be a daunting and vulnerable task, whether you're new to the process or a seasoned pro. As you're scrolling through endless profiles and bios, you may ask yourself "Do I belong here?".
I became a therapist to give people the safe space, supportive relationship, and perspective that they may not get in other aspects of their lives. I also hope to challenge the stigma that may have discouraged them from engaging in the therapy process.
I am a non-binary person of color who has worked in the behavioral health field for over 10 years in inpatient, outpatient, and school settings as a consultant, therapist, and counselor. Throughout my career, I've had the pleasure of working with clients of various ages, genders, ethnicities, and identities. My specialties include LGBTQ+ issues, ADHD, Parenting, School/Work issues, and Emotional-Behavioral Disorders.

I am a seasoned clinician with 32 years of experience. I treat people ages 12 through older adulthood from a wide variety of ethnic and social backgrounds. I specialize in anxiety, depression, ADHD, and spiritual concerns, although I have also worked productively with individuals suffering from severe psychotic states and personality disorders. I also frequently see couples.
My interpersonal style is relaxed, curious, and conventional. I also appreciate a good joke, and find that there seems to be a fair amount of chuckling in my sessions, which is helpful for individuals struggling with depression in particular...though I do not intentionally plan to introduce humor into our discussion, but, rather, it just happens spontaneously.

Hi! I'm a clinical psychotherapist based in Illinois. I received my Masters from DePaul University and have been practicing for several years. My doctoral studies were in organizational psychology. I help clients struggling with anxiety and depression become the best versions of themselves. I use the Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) Method and Gottman's Method. Gottman's Method identifies and addresses the states of mind and behaviors shown to underlie intimacy and helps partners maintain a positive relationship.

My orientation towards psychology was born out of my own difficulties in life; I want to make sure that those who seek help are able to get it. That said, I do best with clients who are at their worst, rock bottom. Fear of death and existential concerns, intrusive thoughts and urges, powerful and intense emotions, chronic stress and fatigue, loss of sense of self, lack of meaning and purpose in life, not being able to tell what's real and what isn't, regardless what it is, I am prepared to help you. Whatever is your breaking point is the point at which you can change your life forever, I can help you through that process. The only way out is through.
Most of my work is value-oriented and based in existential and nondual philosophy, ecological/systems, relational, behavioral, and transpersonal schools of thought. I also utilize my expertise in mindfulness and meditation, acceptance and commitment therapy, Internal Family Systems, and dialectical behavior therapy, along with a variety of experiential therapeutic techniques from various theories and traditions.
I know what it is to truly suffer, so much of it can change if you're willing to just talk about it or reframe it. You can be helped, all you need to do is ask. If I can't help you, I'll find you someone who can. No one deserves to go on suffering, no matter how big or small the problem. It is my life's work to help relieve the suffering of others.

Do you ever get caught off guard by a feeling that seems to come out of the blue? In some cases, you can "power through it" and not let it impact you too much, but other times it seems to paralyze you. In these times of paralysis, a little voice shows up and says "You shouldn't be feeling that way" or some version of "toughen up". While these ideas seem good in theory, they just don't take into account these feelings that are present.
Emotions can and do at times impact our ability to make decisions with confidence. While this is a natural human experience, it is something that we can change and become more effective at. This is where I come in. I am here to join you in your corner. You have already started your journey towards healing simply by finding my profile and considering making a change in your life. While talking about feelings isn't always the most enjoyable thing to do, it can be a very rewarding and life changing process.
Please consider taking this next step of your journey with me. We can create a plan centered around your needs and if we learn that the current plan isn't working, we will find alternative solutions.

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.)

My ideal client understands that therapy is a journey and is willing to show up for themselves wanting something different and better for themselves.

"I believe in a holistic approach to therapy so I integrate traditional talk therapy with experiential therapies that aid in better nervous system regulation, healing, and overall relief of symptoms. Experiential, brain-based healing & somatic therapies can help accelerate change and often reduce time in counseling.
I specialize in biologically based healing, which assists in resolving trauma symptoms that are frozen or stuck in the body. I have training in EMDR (eye movement desensitization & reprocessing) and am a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (SEP). I interweave these therapies and attachment-based support and repair into all my work with clients, which allows for a rich, gentle, connection-based healing approach. I have been in private practice for over 20 years, and prior to that time I worked in a variety of mental health settings.
I see clients via telehealth.
