Divorce Therapists in Algonquin, IL

As a counselor, I believe that you are the expert in your own experiences and that our lived experiences teach us about the life that we want to curate for ourselves. As your counselor, my approach is to assist you by asking you questions to help you discover or rediscover your purpose in an empathetic and curious way. We co-create an environment of exploration by finding ways to encourage authenticity in our space so that we can explore the root causes of behaviors in an environment of care and compassion. During our process, we do work to untether you from toxic patterns so that you may experience what life has to offer you.,

Welcome to a space where your mental health is valued. I prioritize creating a safe and non-judgmental space for my clients to share their thoughts, feelings, and experiences. This allows clients to feel comfortable opening up about their struggles without fear of being criticized or misunderstood. In my practice I provide therapy services to adults. My specialities range from Women's mental health, Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, Self Esteem, Marital Issues and Divorce.

I work with people who are feeling anxious, overwhelmed and stuck. With over 25 years of experience as a psychotherapist, I help clients uncover the root cause of their pain, so they can have energy, be productive and excited about the future. I help clients release the limiting beliefs that are holding them back from achieving their goals. My practice also incorporates a integrative approach to health and wellness.

Everyone struggles at some point in their lives; we are humans, not robots. But sometimes those struggles can become overwhelming, and we don’t know how to manage our fears, feelings, thoughts or behaviors. Here, at Healthy Mentality, we will guide you to face those fears and concerns in a safe environment. We offer traditional in-office therapy, as well as animal-assisted psychotherapy.

Kristin Camorlinga, LCPC, received her Masters in Counseling from Loyola University in 2012. She specializes in working with children, adolescents and their families and has been doing so in different capacities since 1995. She has counseled bilingually in many settings including three schools, a domestic abuse shelter, two non-for-profits and two community public health agencies. She is passionate about helping people overcome mental health difficulties so they can reach their greatest potential and live their best life.

Welcome! We are a small, private, multi-clinician practice. I am a supervising clinical psychologist, and am passionate about helping people overcome obstacles in their lives, particularly those stemming from traumatic experiences and events. These can include (but are not limited to) toxic relationships, divorce, car accidents, loss of a loved one, abuse/neglect (physical, sexual, verbal or emotional), domestic violence and secondary trauma.

All relationships have chaotic or lonely times where you may feel incapable of approaching each other. Couples need a place to turn when they don't know what to do or have no support system. I help couples stuck in conflict gridlock begin to reengage with each other. I specialize in working with couples who experience: high levels of conflict; inability to communicate; emotional & physical distance or disengagement; infidelity; transitioning to parenthood; infertility/pregnancy loss; difficulty overcoming family of origin or cultural differences; and difficulty making the decision to divorce or separate.

At Yates and Associates, we are ready to assist you with individual, marriage, and family counseling. We are experienced in helping our clients understand and work through addiction, co-dependency, anxiety and panic disorder, depression, grief, eating disorders, and abuse. We can also help with communication issues, decision making, and the challenges you may face during times of major transition, such as marriage, divorce, the birth of a child, job loss, and death.

BILINGUAL ENGLISH / SPANISH - I enjoy witnessing my clients discover who they really are. I relish the thought that with new communications skills, my clients can build healthier and stronger relationships with their loved ones. I also like working with adult men and women, young adult issues, marital therapy, relationship therapy as well as grief and loss counseling.

EMPOWERMENT. PURPOSE. PEACE. My ideal client is one that is at least 15 years of age that is ready to make changes in their life in order to maximize their quality of life, personal enjoyment, and find peace. I am here to help you discover your true self and embrace your "New Normal". The utilization of various assessments allows you and I to partner in the development of a customized treatment plan. I am now offering a telehealth/online option using encrypted video conferencing.

Life can be an overwhelming and a confusing puzzle at times. Therapy allows you to take the time to carefully pick up those pieces and create a life that you can be at peace with. My therapeutic style is one that balances real connection with honest conversations. I collaborate with clients to create a judgement free space that will also challenge you directly to reach the goals you want to achieve. Together, we can find the right tools to help you cope with stress and navigate relationship dynamics. By exploring patterns and learning new skills in therapy, you can gain a renewed sense of confidence and strength.

Depression, anxiety, grief/loss, ADHD, and relationship problems are just some of the many reasons people seek out therapy. You may want to learn ways to feel better and reduce uncomfortable emotions, or you may want to just talk through difficult times. I strive to create a safe place and work collaboratively towards your goals. I focus on creating goals, solutions, process one's past and life circumstances, and teach skills and strategies that will reduce uncomfortable and unpleasant emotions. I provide hypnotherapy and biofeedback for pain management and anxiety/panic as added tools to reduce physcial and emotional discomfort.

As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, I work with adults and children with a variety of issues in conjunction with or separately from family therapy/consultation. My focus is on clarifying and addressing the issues that bring each individual into counseling and creating a partnership and treatment plan that will support change and growth. I believe that the relationship between client and therapist is crucial to creating the environment needed for change. Social and emotional difficulties rarely emerge in isolation, but rather from a variety of experiences and interactions.

Therapy is a big step for everyone and I am happy to be considered in the start of your therapy journey! I approach therapy with the mindset that the client is in charge of their therapy and the direction that it goes in, as you are the expert on yourself. I am a passenger on your journey of self-discovery and recovery, helping to guide and give assistance when necessary. My goal is to provide a safe and comfortable space for my clients to work through their life stressors and traumas. Together, we will work together to develop a treatment plan that will help reduce and manage symptoms. I am prepared to help you take the next step!

My approach to counseling is a balance of a straightforward communication with the belief that clients are the experts of themselves. My goal is to help clients to discover their own inner wisdom and support a plan to move out of their stuckness. I believe that our early childhood experiences along with traumas we have experienced play a leading part in the stories we tell ourselves about who we are today.

I have been working in the field of mental health for over 25 years. I have experience in many different settings, including hospitals, residential facilities, schools, and private practice. I have experience treating clients of all ages, though I specialize in working with adolescents and adults with various concerns or struggles.

Navigating relationship issues, work challenges, life stressors, and our mental well-being, can feel like an uphill battle, especially when faced alone. If you're tired of handling these challenges on your own, I'm here to offer a helping hand to guide you through. My ideal client is someone who is motivated and committed to their personal growth and healing journey. They are open to self-exploration and willing to engage in therapeutic work to overcome challenges and improve their overall well-being.

I work collaboratively with my clients to expand their insight into all the relevant factors and/or influences that are keeping them from reaching their full potential. These factors often include, but are not limited to; the identified stressor(s) that brought them into therapy; the effectiveness (or lack of effectiveness) of their current coping strategies; the influence past experiences and physical discomfort can have on their decision making and behavior; and increasing his or her awareness of their individual strengths and weakness. Simply put, I systematically help my clients make appropriate changes needed to meet their identified treatment goals.

There are times when our life, or the lives of family members are no longer as enjoyable as planned. Sadness, arguments, anxiety, and substance use often occur when we experience ourselves going into a direction we don't like. During these challenges, the core of disagreements may simply be a different viewpoint on how a person should live and think. When your challenges become chronic, despite efforts to change, its time to involve professionals. When your way of thinking/behaving no longer progress you towards your goals....it may be time to make the call you frequently thought of making.
