I provide a safe environment and build trusting relationships so that skills can be taught to help clients alleviate symptoms of stress, anxiety and depression. The goal is for clients to learn skills and methods to help alleviate pain, promote healing and have a variety of strategies at “their fingertips” as they encounter unpleasant, difficult emotions and situations. I bring skills and strategies to the counseling process to promote positive outcomes, and positive feelings and thoughts for clients. Clients may be trying to overcome anxiety, anger, and/or depression, or want to work on communication and relationship skills. I am here to help guide you through the process. My experience includes providing therapy in medical behavioral health centers, community behavioral centers, online platforms, school settings, and universities. Through my work, I know how important it is to build mutual respect and trust between the client and therapist. Positive rapport must be developed for both the client and therapist to meet goals and reach success. Taking the first step toward therapy can be very difficult. I want to provide you with an open, trusting, caring space for you to learn, heal and grow. Let's work together!

Welcome! I am Vanessa Ford, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have 20 years of therapy and mental health services under my belt. Most of my experience has taken place in a community mental health setting providing therapy to adults and children, along with treating adolescents in the school setting. I was also lucky enough to get some experience in an inpatient unit, ERs, nursing homes, and a state residential facility for children as part of my educational/training experience. I have been told my strengths are making clients comfortable to open up and not feel judged. Therapy should be a rewarding process that leaves you with hope each time we end a session together. I provide individual therapy, group therapy, and family therapy. We are going to get real and have some fun on this journey together. My professional experience covers a wide range of conditions and age groups. Whether you are dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, mood disorders, ADHD, ODD, or Disruptive Behavior Disorder, I am here to help. We will utilize evidence-based practices together, such as CBT, EMDR, DBT, solution focused, and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy. I am ready to listen to your concerns and share my bag of therapy tools that will allow you to live your best life. Is every day going to be the best? Absolutely not! Who are we kidding? During our sessions, you will gain a new skill set and have more hope and confidence to get through even the toughest days. When we choose to improve our personal lives, it tends to spread to those around us. Let's get started!

In 2009, I graduated from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology with a master's degree in Forensic Psychology. I am licensed in Illinois (LCPC) and Indiana (LMHC). I have previously worked in Emergency Department's performing Intake Assessments, private practice leading an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) to adolescents, and most recently providing risk assessments, crisis management, and brief solution focused therapy in the correctional setting. Life can easily become overwhelming, and we all need the proper tools to overcome challenges. A favorite quote is “Mental health...is not a destination, but a process. It’s about how you drive, not where you’re going.” – Noam Shpancer, PhD. Together we can work through difficult times and learn how to manage struggles whether big or small, so they become less overwhelming. My goal is to have you take away a realistic skill set to manage and cope with life challenges and work to be the best version of yourself.

As the world has grown smaller with access to so much instant information, children and families are feeling overwhelmed. As families are trying to cope from this place of overwhelm, their relationships and connections are suffering. Childhood trauma can also play a major part in the way we shape our families. Recognizing and understanding generational trauma is one of the first steps in creating your family differently. Sometimes even adults need help to help their children. I have 35 years of experience helping children and families cope with all that life can throw at them. I understand life is complicated and rarely easy. I will offer a safe place to learn about yourself from a strength-based perspective. I have worked with people of all ages from children to older adults. I have worked with people with ADHD, depression, anxiety, school-related issues, divorce, and improving family relationships. I must say I am straightforward and direct. I rarely believe that a child's problem is just the child's problem. The child's problem is a family problem and parents are responsible for their children.

Hi! I'm Jaci (pronounced Jackie). Kudos to you for taking the most difficult steps in healing and change... Realizing that if you could change without the help of a highly trained, caring professional, you already would have. That's why you and I are here... You can expect amazing results as you work with me to overcome years of feeling stuck, anxious, depressed, afraid of change, ashamed or unsure of yourself or who you are. You will overcome issues including self-sabotage, negative core beliefs, low self-esteem and under-achievement. You will learn more about yourself, and develop the strength and guts to face down any skeletons in your closet such as decisions you regret or abuse. We'll bust through limiting beliefs to empower you to set and reach the goals you've always dreamed of. We'll get to the root causes of child or adult ADHD, family conflict, and women's issues and implement strategies to help you get to know yourself better and make decisions that are in alignment with your values and with who you truly are, so you can make wise career and relationship choices. You can learn and practice the best parenting techniques, and heal the root issues that influence how present and connected you are to your children, and how you respond to them. You will become more knowledgeable and comfortable managing women’s issues and aging, and we can explore spirituality and religion if you like. I specialize in working with women, parents, children, and families to bring peace, structure, and fun back to your home. I love helping people heal and change through groups and lead an educational/supportive group for women with PTSD. I’m currently finishing my first book, “Heal Your Heart, Heal Your Child: Release Your Trauma to Become the Mom You Want to Be” to help moms break free from unhealthy generational patterns and fully enjoy their children and being a mom. Feel free to check out my website at healyourhearthealyourchild.com. I’ve had not just professional, but also personal, experience with all of the issues I listed. I’m a mom with ADD with two grown children with ADHD… Been there, done that, I can help you get through it! I am confident you will learn the skills and tools you need to heal from the emotional wounds you’ve suffered so that you can get out of your own way to reach the goals you’ve set for yourself and be the person you know you can be. I look forward to meeting you soon!

Hey there. I'm Dennis aka Denny Bartsch. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has been in the field for over 15 years. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused, and Strength Based techniques in my practice. I'm a goofy social worker who likes to use a non-confrontational approach to working with my clients. I do believe that you know your story/life better than I ever will so I believe in what you have to say. One thing that makes me pretty different from other service providers is that I saw a need for session times available for clients later in the day and evening so I decided to have my scheduled be from Monday through Friday's from 12:30pm EST to 9pm EST. I hope to accommodate more people this way. I like to use humor and positive support for my client's as we go on this journey together to helping you achieve the goals we identify in session together. My goal is to work towards you having the skills, support, and confidence you need to be successful. I like to think outside of the box when I work with my client's so you just wait and see! Therapy doesn't need to be scary. Let's work together and maybe laugh through some of it. We got this! Together!
