Therapists in Tazewell County, IL

I am dedicated to working with you to help you find your ability to deal with life and it's challenges by calling on your natural resources and capabilities and seeking a solution that is yours. I believe in the right to self-determination and that all people should have the capability to obtain what they want for their life through the power of therapy.

I find the ability to explore life, understand ourselves and our situation better creates lasting happiness.

Life can be hard, painful, confusing, scary, and challenging. Events happen that leave us reeling with brokenness, grief, disbelief, guilt, fear, insecurity, and shame. We don't know what to do or which way to turn or how we got here in the first place. We may hold onto false beliefs about our self-worth, negative thoughts that tear us apart, relationships that are toxic, and behaviors that are destructive. All in an attempt to somehow alleviate how we are feeling. I am here to partner with you in working towards wholeness and healing and to empower you to move forward, happily and confidently.

Neurofeedback is an advanced computer-based technology that's been validated to balance and optimize the brain.

It was Irvin Yalom who said something to the effect that "psychotherapy is like a dress rehearsal for life".

I specialize in anger and anxiety management for adults and adolescents. I hold an Anger Management Certification. I also enjoy working with highly intelligent adults and teens who have a difficult time adjusting and adapting socially.

Reaching out for support is the first crucial step in the process of healing and change. As a therapist it is my life's passion to be that support to those who are searching for more, struggling with their current season of life and/or are at a loss for direction. At any stage of life when our mind and heart have decided that a change is necessary and that it is time to begin that process, having a knowledgeable, open-minded, and compassionate person to walk the journey with us is crucial. It is my hope to work with those who are ready, if even in the smallest way, to begin their journey of hope and healing.

Hello! I know sometimes the most difficult part of beginning the counseling process is finding a caring and compassionate counselor with whom you can connect. Look no further.

I strive to create a warm, helpful, non-judgmental environment in which you will feel safe, supported, and heard.
