Everyone needs hope. We despair and turn to alcohol, food, shopping, sex and the infinite screen to fill our void. We think we know what we want: intimacy, confidence, inner peace and a sense of achievement. We want to matter. We are tortured at times by self doubt implanted by past traumas. I offer a secure place to be yourself to unravel your secrets, fears, shame and guilt. I have 26 years post-doctoral clinical experience counseling individuals, couples and families. I view human problems from a social systemic perspective addressing the individual and their social context.
I have a doctoral degree in Counseling Psychology from Northern Illinois University with a specialization in Marriage and Family Therapy and am licensed to practice individual, marriage and family therapy. My practice focuses on the treatment of adults, adolescents, school-age children, single-parent families, blended families, post-divorce relationships.
I am a Clinical member of the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy. My approach to mental and emotional problems is goal-oriented and solution-focused. For more information or to schedule an appointment go to www.drbriancarlton.com
