Therapists in Godfrey, IL

Hi, I am so happy you're here. Seeking counseling takes a lot of courage and strength. Thank yourself for getting this far. What brought you here? Anxiety, depression, grief, life changes and transitions? I am here to guide you on your healing journey. I have recently worked with co-occurring disorders, addiction, depression, anxiety, stress related disorders, amongst many others.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist who offers professional yet warm and caring help to those struggling with life's challenges. I have devoted my clinical work to assisting adult individuals with a broad spectrum of concerns. Specifically, I enjoy working with individuals in the following areas: depression, anxiety, substance abuse, life transitions, low self-esteem, communication, and relationship concerns.

Everyday life is a challenge and situations occur that make it more difficult. Families can be problematic, growing-up is challenging for the adolescent and parents, relationships are difficult, grief is painful, jobs can be strenuous, financial worries weigh heavy, medical problems can wear us down and the list goes on. If life challenges have caused you to experience less pleasure, more sadness and anxiety, disturbed sleep, or behaviors that are not normal for you, it will help to seek an experienced counselor to talk to. You don't have to face problems alone. Make an appointment and let's get started on your healing journey.

Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, uncertain? Anxious? Sad? Plagued by negative thoughts, behaviors, and/or emotional hang-ups that sabotage your happiness and well-being? Life is challenging. Life doesn't come with an instruction manual, Depression makes it hard to move. Anxiety makes it hard to breathe. Loss and sadness weigh heavy on the heart. It can be helpful to know how and why these painful conditions have emerged. It can be helpful to begin making some changes while working to enhance understanding. Starting psychotherapy can be a difficult decision. You may feel skeptical embarrassed, or scared.

You may have never gone to a Therapist before, and you may be feeling uncertain, or you may have previous experience (either good or bad); whatever your circumstance, please know that you will be met with compassion and acceptance. I have over 35 years in the social work arena and have been providing one-one therapy for 5 years. I view therapy as a combined effort, using input from clients as we work together to develop a plan for moving forward. It can be helpful for anyone to have an objective viewpoint of their life situation, and this is what I strive to provide.

I treat adults with relationship issues that can include couple/marital concerns, coparenting concerns, individual issues with coworkers, friends, and family. I work well with clients experiencing anxiety and depression. I also treat adolescents individually, and with their parents, who are having difficulty with the adjustment to the teen years or young adulthood; have diagnosed depression or anxiety; relationship problems with friends, peers, or romantic partners. Ideally these clients are interested in receiving help and are motivated to make changes.

My approach to therapy is client-centered and tailored to the indivicual needs of each client. In my 25+ years of counseling I have helped clients cope with with problems such as depression, anxiety, marital and relationship issuses, grief and loss, and unresolved family-of-origin issues. I also teach relaxation exercises and visualization, and use a "theratapper" to help clients reprocess traumatic experiences.

I enjoy working with couples, individuals and families. I also enjoy working with adolescents. Following graduation from St. Louis University in 1995 my focus became helping people attain higher levels of happiness and satisfaction in their relationships and lives. Issues I address include relationship issues, anxiety and depression, post traumatic stress disorder, work or career issues, performance enhancement, parenting issues, health challenges, abuse, etc. My ideal client is looking for someone who will be their partner in their healing journey.

Hi! My name is Taylor Rogers and I would be honored to join you on your mental health journey. I know that finding the right provider can be an overwhelming and confusing process, so I want to share a little bit about myself, my work, and the clients I vibe best with to see if we will be a good fit. While I am a generalist (fancy way of saying I work with a wide variety of concerns), I have extensive experience supporting adult clients who are neurodivergent, exploring their identity and values, are members of the LGBTQIA+ community, are struggling with body image, and are processing grief and traumatic experiences.

Hello! I believe in the counseling process of advocating for my clients while teaching my clients to become their own advocate. I enjoy incorporating stories and activities into my counseling sessions for children to express themselves and practice healthy coping skills. I find it most rewarding when a child can reflect on their social emotional progress. In 2019, I earned my MSW from the UIUC in 2019 and achieved my LCSW in 2022. Since 2018, I've been working in public schools with children in pre-k through 12th grade with disabilities, anxiety, depression, poor social skills, self-esteem, and trauma.
