Magellan Therapists in Homewood, IL

Sometimes life's matters can be really overwhelming and you feel alone or unable to make it through. However, with help and support from a neutral source your healing can begin. I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor with over 20 years of experience in social services working with children and families. I began my career as a case worker in 1994 and decided to pursue a Masters in Counseling in 2004. Since 2008 I have been providing individual, couples and family therapy to those in need.

I believe that, given adequate time, space, and resources, all individuals are capable of self-directed change regardless of their presenting problem. I also believe that therapy can often be the missing factor for those who seek but are unable to successfully make positive life changes on our own. As a counselor, I facilitate change by working with and through the client. As client and counselor, we work together, as a team, to best meet the client’s needs by setting, and then pursuing, realistic, attainable treatment goals.

At some point in life, most of us face challenges that are too overwhelming or challenging to handle on our own. Counseling is a wonderful way to get support, guidance, knowledge, and perspective around these issues, and it can make the difference between struggling and thriving. As a counselor, my goal is to help people through their challenges and struggles, and get to a place where they are happier, healthier, and stronger. I provide a warm and welcoming presence where you will feel comfortable addressing your struggles, and together we can create solutions you can use to live a happier and healthier life.

I utilize an eclectic approach to counseling to identify the best method that fits your individual needs. I have a non-judgmental and empathetic approach to establish a healthy and trusting therapeutic relationship. We all have something we need to heal from, and I am dedicated to helping you on your journey towards healing.

Can you believe this is your life? You once had goals. Now they’re pushed to the side. You tell yourself: “I’ll get to those next month." Years have gone by, and you’re in the same place. Not only have you lost touch with your dreams, but the passion you once had is gone. The job you secretly want to quit feels like your only shred of security. But are you really secure? Or just comfortable? You used to love that job. Now it feels like a chore. With every task, you find yourself growing more resentful. What happened? How did this become your life?

Under the best of circumstances life is not easy. Sometimes we face challenges in our lives and just need someone to listen, care about, and guide us. There's always hope for change and if you are willing to put in the work, there is someone willing to help and that someone is me. Having the courage to take the pathway of change is the first step. Together lets work to make a difference.

People have a need to be understood and validated as they navigate through life. Everyone experiences different pitfalls in their lives. It is the manner in which we interpret those experiences that shapes one's perception of themselves. Whether you are experiencing downs or anxiety - unsure about the future of a relationship, or just feel that you aren't living the life you were meant to live. Therapy can help you reframe those experiences and see how all adversities have a purpose for your future self.

Your identity and purpose are important to living a meaningful and fulfilling life. Unfortunately, life's challenges and unexpected obstacles can make you question who you are and what your purpose is. It can leave you feeling stuck and in need of additional support. An opportunity to get connected to your meaning and purpose and receive the support you need to live a meaningful and fulfilling life is through therapy.

Life can be tough, add significant life transitions and you have a beautiful challenge, that deserves to be celebrated. The positive thing is that you don't have to navigate this adventure by yourself. My passion is empowering my clients to see their strengths and their ability to handle different stages of their lives. I believe in developing a supportive therapeutic relationship with my clients and view it as a partnership. I believe therapy should be a place where they can be comfortable to be themselves and come as they are.

At Obsidian Holistic we work from a relational and cultural lense because the people you engage with on a daily basis affect the lense through which you view your world. Those lenses can diminish your ability to cope and form new, stable, and healthy connections, continuing to utilize unhealthy means of solving your dilemmas. The goal of therapy is to guide you in using your innate abilities to develop healthier lenses to view the world and healthy coping mechanisms. Mental Health Services: Individual Therapy, Group Therapy, Life Coaching, Mindfulness Meditation, Reiki, Vibration therapy, Crystal Work, and Cannabis-assisted Therapy.

We work with a diversity of people, all ages, who deal with a variety of life stressors. Job/school stress, mounting anxiety, persistent sadness, parent-child problems, divorce, panic, LGBTQ concerns, life transition, and grief and loss are among the issues we most commonly work with. Our approach to therapy is first to really understand you as an individual - your goals, your areas of concern, your family, your job environment, etc. Sometimes, we find diagnostic tools helpful in clarifying issues and generating therapy goals. We work to hear and understand your needs so together we can improve the problems.

Are you successful at work, but unhappy in life? You come home exhausted only to get into another fight with your partner or maybe your child. They say you don't listen. Meanwhile, your mind races with worries about the future and your family. Work feels empty and lifeless. What is going on?? You know there's more to life than work and accomplishments, but you don't really know where to find that extra juice you're looking for. Is talking to someone the answer? People seem to think so – they've been saying this all along. Maybe it's time to give this inner work a try. But how?

My name is Enchelle' Morris, I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counseling and Certified Alcohol and Other Drug Specialist. I understand that coming to counseling is not easy and a difficult choice to make. I am here to be an assistant in your healing journey, without any judgement and actively listening. I understand that no matter the situation, counseling process is beneficial when you are comfortable with the therapist you choose. I do my best to set an atmosphere that is conducive for you to feel safe to ensure you achieve your goals.

I see psychotherapy as a collaborative process. From this perspective, I have developed an individualized approach in which the relationship provides a safe place where feelings and behavior can be explored. Often, current struggles have developed over time so that connections can be made to past experiences. With this understanding a person can begin to make changes which lead to greater satisfaction and happiness. I bring a solid eclectic knowledge base to the process, drawing on individual dynamics, relationship dynamics, and an understanding of human development throughout the life cycle. I work with individuals, couples, and adolescents (including their families).

The goal of Heal Thyself Counseling Services is to create a supportive therapeutic environment where clients can explore their own emotional needs and overcome barriers that limit their full potential by meeting each client where they are most comfortable - at their home, in office, or online. I have professionally served individuals, families, and children for more than 6 years. Using cognitive therapy techniques and psycho-education as the backbone for treatment planning, I can help you develop a clear plan for improving your life and important life relationships.

There are many events that occur in life that cause one to feel unbalanced. This may be one of those challenging times for you. Stress, frustration, anxiety, hurt, depression, and loneliness can be difficult and unpleasant.
