My practice, Family Life Consultants, Inc. offers services in two locations and their respective surrounding areas; Collinsville, IL, and Lake Ozark, MO. I particularly enjoy working with families and couples, I also specialize in custody mediation, body image issues and eating disorders Ages include toddlers through seniors.

Hi there! I'm Darionne, and I know emotions can be a super weird but important part of the human existence. I deeply enjoy helping people navigate those big emotions as well as other life struggles. I always tailor my therapeutic approaches to whatever my clients interests are. So, if you hate writing, let's not journal! But, let's find something else that you enjoy and can be therapeutic for your healing. My clients always receive a treatment approach that's tailored to both their needs and preferences.

You never have to feel stuck. As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, my passion is to help connect people with the hope they deserve in their lives. If you and/or your loved ones are currently facing stressful life changes, grief and loss, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, behavior difficulties, and/or overwhelming anger, please do not hesitate to call me. Together we can develop effective strategies and build the hope that is necessary to help you overcome whatever challenge is at your feet.

Whether you've been to a counselor before or this is your first time seeking help, I offer acceptance, openness, and inclusion to everyone. Some concerns I've helped others with include but are not limited to depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder and traits, trauma, abuse, sexuality, substance use, work stress, and caregiver stress.

You or your child may be having difficulty at work, school, home, with friends, or with family members and you are not sure what to do about it! These difficulties may include difficulty managing emotions, worrying about things, problems with attention, and/or getting along and connecting with other people. You may feel that you have tried everything to help yourself and/or your child and nothing seems to work. There is a ton of information available-friends, social media, etc. All this information can be conflicting and make things even more overwhelming. You don't have to do this alone. Therapy can help you or your child!

Life’s challenges can sometimes seem overwhelming. As a result, we can find ourselves doubting our resiliency and feeling unable to cope. Know that you are not alone and that reaching out for help is a sign of strength. My goal is to provide a safe and collaborative environment where, together, we can find solutions, learn to cope, and rediscover resiliency so that you can face and overcome life’s challenges with a fresh perspective and renewed sense of self.

I work with clients to build a strong therapeutic relationship to provide the space to share their story and experiences. I understand the client is the expert on their own life. Each client needs to be seen, heard, and understood through their own multi-cultural lens. I primarily focus on children, adolescents, and young adults.

I believe that people need to be heard, and can find and articulate their own truth, their own path to health with compassion, empathy, and time-to tell their story, feel appreciated, to heal, and to change. I have worked to include spirituality, creativity, and the ability to accompany someone on their journey-so that our brief connections can have impact through the week, and through life. I value family input and involvement, social supports, and evidence-based methods, but more so I value my client's individual personal journey. I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, and Certified Alcohol and Drug Abuse Counselor.

Welcome! My name is April Lacey, and I am a licensed counselor in Illinois. Taking the first step to seek a happier and fulfilling life takes courage. I am here to support you through that process. My vision for therapy is to create a safe and encouraging space for clients to share their experiences, while recognizing their strengths to cope with life's challenges.

When choosing a therapist it is important to consider many different perspectives. First and most importantly, is this someone that you will be comfortable working with? Education and experience are other considerations? However, when it comes right down to it, it's about connecting. All the great tools that a therapist may have will be useless if you do not connect with them. I have heard from many of my clients about negative experiences in the past with therapists and how they feel like nothing really happened.

Are you happy with your life? What are your best hopes and dreams? The ideal client in my practice is one who wants to explore possibilities rather than problems. They are people who want to create novelty in there lives and avoid the rut of more of the same.

I enjoy helping clients overcome the issues in their lives, whether it is anxiety, depression, or things from their past. I also enjoy helping parents become better parents. I work with children, teens, and adults. I work with clients one-on-one, in a family setting or with married couples.

The path to healing after a trauma is unique to each individual. I believe in helping you discover the best path for you. I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor within a private practice setting. I graduated in 2018 from Wake Forest University with a MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. Since then, I have had the opportunity to serve a diverse range of clients in community and private practice settings. I have provided individual, family and group therapy to adults and children. I specialize in working with individuals who have experienced trauma in their life to include children, adolescents, and veterans.

Do you often feel alone, like no one understands you or 'gets' you? Do you struggle with healthy, meaningful relationships? Do you feel like something "isn't quite right" or is missing in your life? Have you tried therapy before and it didn't work out? For every client that walks through my door I help feel less alone and ease emotional burdens. I help you navigate the most difficult hardships in your life by providing a safe and supportive healing space. I help you establish healthy, fulfilling and meaningful relationships, starting with YOU. I look forward to meeting you and walking this healing journey together!

I have had a variety of experiences working with people who have had different types of problems. I have worked with individuals having problems ranging from anxiety, depression, anger management, chronic habitual problems, compulsivity, bipolar, sexual addiction, sexual offending/deviant behaviors, and psychotic issues. The value of therapy is that clients can come in with issues and with work receive some results in the form of change. It is my job to help facilitate that process. I believe in helping people work out their problems and provide them with the skill sets to help them accomplish their goals.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I have 25+ years of experience working with individuals who are struggling with symptoms of anxiety, depression, or other mental health or substance use disorders. In the fast-paced world we live in, we are constantly facing heightened feelings of stress caused by workplace, parenting, family, couple or other relationship conflicts. Unfortunately, for many, alcohol or drugs are used to “manage” the difficult times. It is my goal to help clients navigate their most complex feelings and to provide the tools and coping skills needed to return hope, inner peace and happiness to their lives.
