Grief Therapists in 60653

Hello, I'm Dr. Cadmona Hall, and I'm a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 15 years of experience. I specialize in working with couples, individuals, and families. I bring passion and energy to the therapy room. I believe you have the ability to heal difficulties in your lives but you may need some extra help and specific tools. I want you to have a happy, healthy and productive life. I'm here to work together with you to accomplish your goals.

Currently, I am seeing clients virtually or we are talking on the telephone. I know the decision to seek counseling is often a difficult one. These days with all the chaos and turmoil in the outer world our issues and concerns have become heightened. I have experience with a variety of issues including grief and loss, depression, anxiety, stress management, trauma, self esteem, anger management, adoption and relationship patterns.

Yes! You are ready, and I am here to help! It is not always easy to seek help in a world in which you often feel unsafe, unseen, unprotected, and at times perceived as a threat. Far too often, you are met with unrealistic expectations on how you're "supposed" to feel and express emotions and what it means "to be a man." I have been able to transform the lives of teenagers and adults who've had significant difficulty managing stress, regulating their emotions, navigating social situations, and processing loss and grief.

If you're reading this you may be at a place in life where you are feeling disconnected from yourself and/or those around you. Maybe feeling lost or having a hard time prioritizing your needs? Allow me to invite you to journey back home to yourself.

I believe my approach works best with teenagers, adults, and couples.

Do you feel overwhelmed and drained from challenges you have experienced in your life? Do find yourself feeling sad and guilty about things that have happened to you? Feelings similar to this can often lead to overthinking about decisions and relationships and as a result feeling misunderstood and unhappy. As your therapist, I will provide a safe and supportive space while we navigate the difficulties you are facing. I’ll provide you a place where you can express yourself authentically and talk through challenging moments with care while honoring your unique strengths and identities.

Life's journey can present challenges that feel overwhelming, and at times, we may find ourselves seeking support and understanding. Navigating emotions can be complex. I provide a safe and non-judgmental environment where you can express yourself freely. Together, we'll explore your feelings, helping you gain insights and a deeper understanding of your emotional landscape. With 15 years of experience in the field, I bring a compassionate and client-centered approach to therapy.

As you begin your journey in therapy, let me walk you briefly through my journey. I have experience providing services in community-based settings, schools, and hospitals. I am certified as a trauma-informed yoga practitioner and as a Racial Healing Circle practitioner through TRHT.

The bravest thing you can do is begin to understand your own story. As a black woman, a sister, a daughter and a mother; I too have been in your shoes. Throughout life we are told we have to remain strong and we never get the opportunity to not be the strong one for once. This causes built up anxiety, depression and negative emotions which are then taken out on the ones we love the most. Are you ready to face the past trauma and experiences you have not had the opportunity to process? If so, I am the right therapist for you.
