Greetings! I am so glad you are here and exploring participating in therapy services. My name is Brianna, and I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Illinois. I hold a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Wheaton College and have been in the therapy field for the last 8 years. I approach therapy from a place of sincerity and compassion, believing all clients have unique gifts and strengths.

I am passionate about working with adolescents, adults, and couples. However, I have been able to work with a wide range of clients along with various presenting concerns while obtaining my Master's degree. I use comprehensive theories that help me see the client as a unique individual, as well as who they are within their various complex systems. Despite gravitating towards specific theories, I will pull from other theories to tailor a treatment that is best fit for the client. I'm a firm believer in therapy being a collaborative process, I strive to have the client feel heard, feel comfortable, and be an active agent in therapy.

I believe that therapy works best as a process of uncovering our truest selves. Oftentimes life hands us burdens of stress, anxiety, grief, trauma, and pain that weigh us down and make it difficult to encounter the world in ways that we would like. I believe each individual has a unique and important story to tell, and I find joy in walking alongside clients as they begin to peel away the layers of life’s burdens to uncover the light of their authentic selves. I strive to offer a safe space for clients to author a personal narrative that feels genuine, and I operate from a gentle, trauma-informed, strengths-based perspective.

Making the decision to seek help can be a monumental task and selecting the right therapist can be challenging. I can provide you with a therapeutic relationship that will feel safe and collaborative so that it can serve as the basis for healing. My goal is to work with you in assessing your strengths, exploring challenges, working to overcome barriers, and returning you to a peaceful and productive state. I will work with you to create a treatment plan that suits your personality and needs. Sometimes, all you need are the right words at the right time to change how you see the world…including yourself.

Are you feeling overwhelmed? Unfulfilled in your relationships? Struggling to manage anxiety? Daily life can bring endless challenges. In therapy, we will broaden the perspective beyond daily encounters, delving into patterns, underlying causes, and systemic influences. We all perceive the world through our individual lenses, and I understand that treatment for similar symptoms can vary greatly from person to person. I'm dedicated to creating a welcoming space that embraces LGBTQ+ people and trauma-informed care. Expect lots of empathy, open chats, and a sprinkle of humor to spark meaningful conversations.

This has been such a hard season for many individuals and families navigating challenging issues with grief and loss. Most of my work has been providing support to children, adolescents, and adults during stressful experiences and transitions. My job allows me the privilege to witness the resilience and strength of individuals as they move through unexpected challenges. I believe it is important for all people to have a safe, non-judgmental, authentic space to feel validated and to help bring balance and healing to their life. I also work with therapists and medical providers who experience trauma and loss at work.

At first therapy can seem intimidating as processing through our struggles can be; however it is important to recognize that we all need some support sometimes, and professionals like myself are here to help! As a Licensed Professional Counselor I have worked with various populations including adolescents, couples, adults, groups, and families. Typically some of the issues that I address in therapy but are not limited to include depression, anxiety, PTSD, eating disorders, ADHD, addiction, and relationship difficulties. In my office, I strive to provide a safe and encouraging environment to help walk you through this process.

I choose to approach therapy in a way that addresses each unique person as a whole with many complex components contributing to their current state. Through empathy and genuine interaction, I seek to understand each person in the moment. I provide a warm and caring therapeutic environment that lets clients explore the problems they are looking to change. My goal is to help clients make changes to find happiness and fulfillment by offering interventions and information for success.

This sometime requires exercises designed to reduce symptoms that are negatively affecting their lives before working to address the events that brought to this point in their lives. where they are seeking some help.
