Hi, I am Alice Filmus, a Marriage and Family Therapist, licensed for 15 years. A personal belief that I have is, everyone has something valuable to offer, and with unconditional empathy, compassion, and therapeutic guidance a person's fullest happiest potential can be achieved.

I would like to extend a warm welcome to you. If you have made it to my page, then you might be going through a difficult time or know someone who is. You have come to the right place. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker licensed in Illinois and California with over thirteen years of experience working in the field of mental health. I have held Registered Recovery Worker, Lead Case Manager, Outpatient Therapist and Clinical Social Worker roles in a variety of health care settings. With me, you can expect a therapist who is caring, direct and down to earth. I am empathic, skilled and value creating a safe therapeutic environment.

If you’re reading this, you’re having some sort of trouble. I help good people get through tough times. There are many ways to do counseling. You can think of me as a life coach who offers principles to help you solve personal and relational problems. And /or, I can be your therapist to help you process a history of hurts and help you get on with your life. I work with couples and individuals (children, teens and adults) in an atmosphere that is casual and relaxed. I use language and tools you can use now. No psychobabble. If we connect we're likely to do some good work. So I'm ready when you are.

Each of us go through different seasons in our life where change can happen unexpectedly. At times there can be so much pressure to be successful personally and professionally and sometimes it can be challenging to be our authentic selves. Past or present circumstances can leave us feeling stuck, confused, fearful or hopeless. Those feelings are valid and it is important that they are heard and understood. I am a strong believer in the power of therapy where an individual can truly be their honest self. We all deserve a safe place to be open about our history, our emotions, and our dreams and I am here to offer that space.

Welcome! I view therapy as a place of exploration, of understanding, of support and healing. After spending the first half of my life trying to fit in and the second half trying to understand my purpose and meaning, I’ve settled into a very comfortable role as a therapist. I enjoy listening and supporting others’ awareness of what has shaped them, why they behave/feel the way they do, and how to find strength and healing. I believe change is possible.

Pornography addiction can have a significant impact on your life and relationships but there is hope for recovery. I’m not just a mental health professional, I’ve been “you” for many years. I understand firsthand the personal and relational struggles that come with uncontrollable pornography use. The endless stream of attractive women a few clicks away on Pornhub, Onlyfan or Social Media used to reduce stress and boredom is hard to stop even when it’s destroying your life and relationships

Addiction is not a problem to be fixed, but rather a person. I have worked with many people with various addictions and realize that addressing one problem from one perspective is not enough. I specialize in getting to know a person first and then helping that person heal from past hurts, learn skills for problem-solving, improve communication, build strong relationships, practice ways to manage strong emotions, learn to slow down and change their harmful or intrusive thoughts, draw from their faith for strength, develop strong support systems, and with all this, hope of long-term recovery can become reality.

Welcome to my practice. I have been in practice since 2007 and have been featured on ABC, NBC, and KCAL as an expert psychologist. I work primarily with men who have hit “rock bottom” and would like help getting up. These men are often in crisis when we first meet. The issues I address are typically related to unhealthy sexual behaviors, infidelity, financial recklessness, gambling, drugs/alcohol, dishonesty/lying, and relational conflicts. My therapy approach is a combination of psychoanalytic, cognitive-behavioral, and the 12-Step recovery model. I also share insight from my own painful but redemptive recovery journey.
