French Therapists in Orland Park, IL

Hi, I am a child, adolescent and young adult therapist. I see clients from 3-25 years. I have a strong passion for working with adoptive families and all the challenges that this brings, and I also treat anxiety, depression, mood disorders, kids and teens with huge behaviors, ADHD and executive skills deficits, learning disabilities, attachment, trauma, domestic abuse, sexual, emotional and physical abuse, developmental issues. I also do a lot of parenting work, and I teach Robyn Gobbel's parenting course. I work with a parent in the room for children under 12, as parents become my co-therapist, carrying on the work at home.

Hello, I am a licensed clinical professional counselor with over ten years of experience in the mental health field. I have worked with a wide range of clients in various settings. I focus on issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD, women's issues, and life transitions. I use multiple modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral (CBT), Strength-Based, Trauma Focused, Person-Centered, and Mindfulness-Based (MBCT). I focus on my client's goals, working on what they want to get out of therapy and what direction they want their life to take.

I work to help people gain awareness of why and how they have lost access to meaningful parts of themselves, find ways to remove blocks to emotional growth and move towards a life that feels more connected and alive. I attend to past and present circumstances, behaviors, feelings, thoughts, and the body. I am open, authentic, engaged, and gently challenging in my interactions with clients. As a Marriage & Family Therapist, I intend to support you in enhancing your relationships and offer guidance for healing and growth in any other domains of your life that you'd like to examine.

En tant que clinicien orienté vers les résultats, j’accueille les clients de tous les ages pour la thérapie individuelle ainsi que couple. Ma spécialisation est travailler avec des clients confrontés à des traumatismes, deuil et perte, l’infertilité, problèmes relationnels, l’estime de soi, humeur et motivation.

Chaque personne est unique et j'intègre diverses approches fondées sur des données probantes et tenant compte des traumatismes pour répondre aux préoccupations actuelles.

J’attache de l'importance à l'établissement d'un environnement thérapeutique empathique et confortable où la personne se sent en sécurité. J'encourage une relation collaborative et authentique dans laquelle mes clients se sentent compris et soutenus. Parce qu’une personne est unique, j'insiste sur une compréhension complète de chaque client et de leurs préoccupations spécifiques. Mes interventions sont basées sur cette compréhension ainsi que les préférences du client. Dans mes plus de 15 années de pratique, j'ai travaillé non seulement avec une diversité de problèmes cliniques mais aussi avec des clients de diverses cultures.

Je pense que chaque personne a besoin d'aimer ou de se sentir aimée au plus profond d'elle-même. Lorsque ces besoins sont satisfaits, nous pouvons recevoir et partager de l'affection de la part de notre entourage, et faire partie d'une communauté. Les patients qui viennent généralement me consulter ont fait face à des obstacles dans leurs relations amoureuses, leurs relations sociales, leurs relations familiales, leurs relations au travail, leurs rapports aux collectivités et/ou leurs relations avec eux-mêmes. Lorsque je travaille avec mes patients, je les invite à examiner leurs besoins.

La thérapie nous rend vulnerable et peut être difficile. C’est pour ça que je m’engage a créer un environment comfortable qui est à votre disposition. Je travaille avec vous pour adapter votre thérapie a vos besoins et pour atteindre vos buts. Je me base sur les principes de la thérapie cognitivo-comportementale qui éclaire les liens entre nos pensées et nos émotions pour comprendre leurs influences sur nos actions. J’apporte aussi une attention aux événements socioculturels qui nous influencent et nous forment chaque jour.

We envision a world where people from minority groups are able to heal from the emotional scars inflicted by systemic discrimination, poverty, unjust persecution, and marginalization. Healing from intergenerational trauma is a crucial step toward achieving individual and collective wellness. We resonate with author Akshay Dubey that the path to healing doesn't erase the experiences that caused us harm, but rather allows us to move beyond them and live with newfound strength and purpose. At R&B Counseling, we believe in your strength, resilience, and ability to heal and thrive.
