Parent-Child Interaction (PCIT) Therapists in Normal, IL

First and foremost, if you are reading this, I want you to know that I see the strength it took for you to take this step in asking for help. I work with clients ages 3 and up to navigate many life challenges - whether that is reprocessing past trauma, struggling in relationships, infertility/perinatal struggles, or navigating the day to day stressors of life. Being a member of the military/veteran community, I am also passionate about working with military/veterans and their family members on the unique challenges they face in their day to day life. I hope to help each person rewrite their story into something they can be proud of.

Not a single one of our lives has escaped pain, hurt, rejection, loss, or other traumatic events. It’s a part of the world we live in; a part we cannot evade. Each generation, the trauma becomes more complex, as it builds on the previous generation’s unresolved trauma. It presents itself as depression, anxiety, fatigue, sleeplessness, trouble concentrating, self-destructive behaviors (including addiction), physical illness, overwhelming guilt or shame, and the inability to form healthy relationships. But it doesn’t have to continue. You can loosen the hold that it has on your life. You can end the cycle of generational trauma.

Has your life taken an unexpected detour? Maybe it's a chaotic relationship, unrelating anxiety or navigating difficult family dynamics. Whatever your struggles might be, fighting these battles on your own can be difficult, painful and sometimes overwhelming. However, there is an incredible amount of power in a strong therapeutic relationship where you can process life with someone who desires to fully understand you with a lens of compassion and empathy.

Hi ! Thanks for stopping by! Unfortunately, I will be going on maternity leave starting September 2023. However, do not hesitate to reach out via email or phone if you need further guidance finding a provider that will meet your needs! As many years of experience working with children, families, parents (at all different levels- from new to parenting parents to parents who have been parenting for years), and relationships such as married couples, parent-child, I am confident I can lead you in the right direction! For future reference, please keep me in mind as I will be returning from leave the start of the new year- 2024!

My biggest therapeutic success is to incorporate things in my therapy session such as playing games, playing sports, dancing, art, team building, executive functioning, self-esteem checks, charades, role-plays, and music therapy that are so enjoyable to the children that it makes them feel more open and honest to share about the things they want to work on, what they need to work on, but gets them excited to come back each week and learn the skills that they want and need, but have fun while doing it.

Offering 20+ years of skilled counseling experience specializing in child and adolescent issues including ADHD, anxiety, depression and all school issues. I have special training in adult issues related to self-improvement, anxiety, depression, mood and personality disorders, codependency, abuse. parent/child relationships, and divorce recovery.

Sometimes in life we need a little extra help. Family and friends mean well, but talking with a professional about your concerns can make all the difference in the world. If you are struggling, or simply need a warm and gentle environment in which to rest, I am here for you.

As human beings we learn, develop meaning, and create a sense of purpose through each other and the relationships we form. In the same spirit I believe the therapeutic process is driven by the relationship formed between the client and the therapist. This is why my approach in therapy is guided by the question - "How can I provide a relationship which this person may use for their personal growth?" I strive to create an empathic, nonjudgmental atmosphere where you feel safe and empowered to work toward personal growth and creating lasting change; forming trust and leaning toward vulnerability.

At B&B Therapy we strive to ensure all of our clients, regardless of age, receive the best care we can provide. We have tailored our adult and adolescent therapy rooms to be relaxing and calm to help our clients feel like they are at home. Our child therapy rooms are designed to help our clinicians provide fun and safe play therapy to help our young clients feel comfortable to be themselves. At B&B Therapy we believe in promoting growth and autonomy to help all our clients succeed outside of our therapy rooms.

Hi! I’m a licensed therapist with over 6 years of experience helping individuals with issues such as anxiety, depression, women's issues, relationship issues, addiction, ADHD, stress, and more. I draw from modalities such as Acceptance and Commitment (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral (CBT), Dance/Movement Therapy, and the Gottman Method. If you’re feeling stuck in the same patterns that keep you from living your most meaningful life and reaching your goals, or your current strategies aren’t helping you to achieve your bigger goals, I can help.

I love working with people during the "family building" stage of life: pregnancy, postpartum, and parenting young kids. Many new parents feel: sadness, hopelessness, worry, irritability, panic and/or sleep disruptions. In therapy, clients tell me they feel overwhelmed, stressed out, and in "survival mode." They need more support from their family, and they are afraid of what's to come. Some are going through the most painful time in their lives. Above all else, these parents need someone to listen to them, to SEE them, and to support them in all their complexity. People don't want to be judged, they want to be understood.

Deciding to begin therapy can be a difficult decision requiring courage and strength. I commend you on taking the first step toward feeling better, self-enlightenment, more satisfying relationships (with ourselves, other adults, or children) and personal growth. Whether you are feeling stuck in life or unsure of the next step, facing conflict or unhappiness within a relationship, experiencing feelings of depression, loneliness, or anxiety, struggling to cope with a past or recent trauma or a painful personal history, therapy can be a rewarding and transformative experience that can help you heal and reclaim control of your life.

With 25 years dedicated to fostering the emotional well-being of children and adolescents, I bring a wealth of experience as a therapist committed to helping develop strong and resilient individuals. My clinical practice has been built on a compassionate attention to each person's unique development and a commitment to creating safe spaces for children and teens to explore their emotions. Throughout my career, I have advanced my skills in various therapeutic models tailored to the unique needs of children and teens, recognizing the importance of early intervention in shaping healthy emotional landscapes.

Are you experiencing stress, anxiety, trauma, or depression? Do you want to feel better and meet with someone who can hold space and help? I have over a decade worth of experience working with women who are wanting to heal from past hurts and live with more confidence, clarity, and purpose.
