Therapists in Glen Ellyn, IL

I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and an EMDR Certified therapist and use a strengths-based approach to therapy. I believe that the healing power of an empathic relationship provides a safe space for an individual to safely explore their values and the ways in which they make meaning out of their experiences and interact with the world.

I am passionate about helping people move from pain, tension, and chaos into integration, wholeness, and freedom. I work with teens and adults to help them make sense of their experiences of pain, release the burdens that have been weighing them down, and find more joy. I am particularly passionate about working within the Internal Family Systems (IFS) and AEDP models.

Brian has been in the addiction/mental health field since 1993. He has been described as practical, realistic, and down-to-earth therapist who is naturally inquisitive and goal oriented.

But when necessary, Brian has a serious side, as addictions are for many, can be a life or death problem.

My specialty is working with people who have issues arising from sexual behavior problems, including sexually abusive behavior, sexual addiction, pornography addiction and Internet addiction.

Many of us recognize that “something” in our lives needs to change for us to become happier and to improve the quality of our lives.

My style is active collaboration that aligns the behaviors with the values of the individual I am working with in a nonjudgmental and respectful environment.
