Therapists in Mahomet, IL

Are you feeling lost, overwhelmed, or stuck? Are you feeling lonely, out of touch, or struggling? We all need support at some point during our lives. I specialize in working with clients with ADHD, autism, anxiety, depression, difficulty adjusting, substance abuse, and overwhelming stress. It takes courage to take the first step. You are worth it. I take an eclectic approach to counseling. I like to use your strengths to empower future growth and happiness. I have experience in working with ADHD, autism, anxiety, depression, and trauma. I am becoming certified as an Autism Spectrum Disorder Clinical Specialist (ASDCS).

Most of us humans have experienced trauma or simply too much stress. Thoughts, body sensations, and images/memories/dreams can cause more emotional and physical pain--and vice versa. To get rid of these unwanted things completely may be expected goals; but to diminish and manage them with less pain or tension is more realistic. To be understood by others, to feel more safe, to feel supported, to receive usable feedback and new ideas--these are goals I will surely help any client experience. Somatic Experiencing facilitates clients in moving forward, at their own pace, building more resilience self-acceptance and confidence.

I provide a supportive and therapeutic space to help people experience healing, growth, and confidence when stress or traumatic situations have been overwhelming. Traumatic situations can cause anxiety, depression, and challenge how you relate with others. I've been helping youth, adults, and families for the past twenty years in a wide variety of contexts by coming alongside to help them better manage their mood and to develop healthier relationships with those they love, co-workers, and others.

Over the past 15+ years, my practice has been focused primarily on helping clients recover from traumatic experiences and find increased satisfaction and inner peace. I have experience working with clients dealing with PTSD and other posttraumatic reactions, depression, anxiety, panic, sleep disturbance, impulse control problems, attention difficulties, mood dysregulation, and problematic substance use. I also have experience helping clients improve their interpersonal relationships, communication, assertiveness, and organizational skills.

My goal is to improve the mental health of those who experience depression, anxiety, have a history of trauma, those that are having a difficult time coping with life’s challenges, and are motivated to make some changes in their lives. My approach as a clinician is person centered, solution-focused, and skills-based. My process aims to support people by creating a safe space where they can reflect on how their life is going and to think about the constructive changes they want to see happen in their lives, while providing some skills that can help them in their journey.

I believe in transformation - yours (and mine), and that the draw towards the good is irresistible. Whatever challenges you face, there’s a way forward. How you see yourself - and those around you - can make all the difference. I want to know your story, how you tell it, and where you hope it will go. You’ll have a partner as you navigate life transitions and circumstances, learn to better manage difficult thoughts and feelings, change patterns that no longer serve you, and improve relationships. As your unfoldment happens (and yes, it's always messy), you’ll have an ally in this incredibly difficult yet doable work.

I enjoy working with children, adolescents, and adults who are comfortable with a one on one approach to counseling. Working with children in therapy always involves working with the parents. As with adolescents, providing them with a sense of privacy and trust is something I try to develop from the very beginning. For adults, privacy, confidentiality, and respect occur in a atmosphere of warmth and patience. If you are dealing with Attention Deficit Disorder, Depression, Anxiety, Panic attacks, Bipolar Disorder, or Post Traumatic Stress, I am sure you will find the relief you are looking for at my office.

There are times in our lives when we may have difficulty adjusting to work, family, and life stressors. Some may have experienced a traumatic event and have difficulty coping. Others may find it challenging to manage anxiety and depression, building healthy relationships, connecting to love ones or coping with other mental health conditions. Whatever the issues maybe, there is hope for healing and recovery, having the best quality of life possible.

All of us experience times in our lives when we are overwhelmed, anxious or depressed. These times should not define us.

“Most people seek therapy because something isn’t working. Sometimes people do not feel equipped to handle life’s problems – work stress, family stress, health issues, etc. Many individuals feel stuck trying to solve problems the same way when those solutions are no longer helpful. This pain can leave someone suffering and feeling helpless.” I want to help you gain perspective and new knowledge and skills for change. Often this involves being more aware and present in the moment. Many people do not recognize the power they have to create positive change in their lives. I will help empower you to find your strengths and make change.
