Codependency Therapists in Homer Glen, IL

Individuals typically seek therapy when certain facets of their lives become unmanageable. Whether you are feeling powerless, overwhelmed, or having much difficulty navigating through day to day life, therapy is a space for self-exploration. I provide a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space to process issues that you may be having difficulty coping with. Together we can identify those issues and explore solutions. Together we can get you back on track and help you gain clarity and direction.

As humans, we all face an array of challenges, experience pain and suffering, and sometimes, find ourselves feeling alone in the dark, helpless and hopeless. I understand asking for help can be the most terrifying and uncomfortable decision we have to make during these times. As a therapist, it is my goal to empower my clients through these hardships, to find the light. I am invested in and unafraid to provide the deep connection and nonjudgmental space essential to think, feel, and work through any fears and challenges appearing in the way of achieving your goals.

Growing up without the right emotional support or with abuse can leave adults feeling a lack of sense of self..."Who am I? Am I allowed to feel this way?" This creates difficulties with decision-making and relationships, and the overall quality of life is unsatisfying. You may look “well put together” but inside you feel an empty numbness. The impact from yesterday can cause today to feel like a burden and decreases one's ability to thrive. Most times only symptoms of depression and anxiety are treated which only further avoids the core issue. We can safely address the core issues in therapy helping you gain BETTER WELLNESS.

My name is Sara Levi. My clinical work has focused on supporting youth, young adults, adults, families, and couples through the challenging moments in their lives. It can truly be difficult to find balance during life transitions, career and relational stress, loneliness, uncertainty, or managing after trauma, abuse, or losses. I respect the courage it takes to seek support and consider changes that can bring us to solid ground, and finding peace and joy. I help clients identify and leverage their strengths to grow in areas they are seeking development and peace.

Through my decades of experience I have seen that we all struggle with feelings of not being "Good Enough" in some way. Whether that is smart enough, lovable enough, or many other not enoughs. We form these beliefs during our lives and many things trigger that NOT GOOD ENOUGH feeling. We may react emotionally when the "not good enough" feeling is triggered. EMDR & Mindfulness are great tools to help calm down our emotions so we have better control of them. My client's say I have an easy going and personable style. I have such high regard for my client's bravery and strength to seek help!

Therapy can sometimes be a challenging first step for those currently going through a tough time. It can already be very difficult to try and cope with the day to day struggles as well as past traumas in life that opening up to a stranger may feel intimidating. It is my hope to allow my clients to not only feel safe to share their most unique selves within a therapeutic setting, but also to establish a warm and empathic relationship. As a therapist, I recognize the value of kindness and rapport in helping my clients heal. Feeling both seen and heard can truly make a difference in allowing personal growth to take place.

“I don’t know who I am anymore.” “When am I going to enjoy life again?” “Other parents seem to be able to do it with multiple kids, why can’t I do it with one baby?” These might be phrases you have said to yourself. Believe it or not, these are very common and can make us feel alone. But the reality is, a lot of people have had them. Life throws us hurdles and although they may seem difficult, with the right tools and support they can be overcome. Society wants us to believe that becoming a parent is a storybook time in our lives. The fact is, parenthood can also be the most difficult, isolating, and confusing time.
