I believe that effective therapy fosters a reconnection with one’s strengths and uncovers the potential for healing, even in the midst of significant challenges. My role is to provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore their emotional world, gain clarity, and identify the internal or relational barriers that may be limiting growth. I chose this work to help individuals navigate the complexities of life with greater insight, resilience, and authenticity.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and I have nearly 15 years of clinical practice and supervision of other clinicians. I am a very client-centered therapist, so my main goal is to meet the clients where they are and support them through the change process. No one knows you better than you do; sometimes, you just need a little help figuring it all out. I work with adults who are looking to make some changes in their lives. They may not know what they need to change or how, but they are "mostly" ready and motivated to do the work.

Hi, I'm Alexandria (Alex) Henson, LCPC, NCC here in Illinois! I meet my clients where they are at in their process by utilizing an eclectic approach where I take from various theories and modalities and use them together to best support you and your needs. I typically pull from CBT, DBT, SFT, and MI to best support you in your journey. I love the combination of eclectic therapy because one treatment modality doesn't work well for everyone. I meet you where you are, come as you are. I want you to feel you can be your true authentic self because I know that's how I like to enter the therapy space.

Sometimes life gets heavy, complicated, or just confusing. You might be feeling stuck, questioning your next steps, or wanting to reconnect with parts of yourself that have been pushed aside. Therapy with me is about creating a space where you can slow down, think clearly, and make decisions that feel true to who you are, not who the world expects you to be.
