Therapists in Glen Ellyn, IL

Providing a safe and comfortable space, while understanding your needs and addressing your goals. Holding you accountable towards your goals, while also offering support and effective coping skills to help you through it all. My speciality is with anxiety disorders, including OCD, phobias, panic and generalized anxiety.

I believe that change best occurs in the context of an open, trusting relationship. Therapy is a collaborative relationship in which we work together to address the issues that you are struggling with. Together, we will identify your feelings, thoughts, and dynamics that are impacting your life. We will work together to meet your goals in pursuit of a purposeful and rewarding life.

We are currently accepting clients, in-person and virtual! My name is Myriam, I am the practice owner of Your Family Wellness Village, where we care for the wellness of all family units, ranging from individuals, couples, and families, from adolescence to adulthood. Our aim is to provide you with emotional and practical support whether you struggle with depression, anxiety, OCD, self-injury, or adjustment to parenthood. If you are looking for: a listening ear, non-judgmental validation, practical tools and skills, but most importantly, meaningful change towards the kind of person you want to be, we can help you get there.

Do you feel overwhelmed, weighed down and stuck in place at times, like you know what you should do, but don’t have the motivation to make it happen? This is the effect ADHD, depression, anxiety and trauma can have on people, and you’re not alone. As your therapist, my goal is to make you feel heard and understood. Together, we will address your concerns by understanding how your thoughts, emotions, and physical health effect one another. We will seek to understand the underlying source of your symptoms and discover coping mechanisms that work for you through exploring your strengths, interests and support systems.

I have a warm and open relational style that communicates value and worth to my clients. My goal is to elicit your own strengths to make the change that you want. Too much guidance takes away your own autonomy, and too little keeps you confused, but finding the balance is one of the keys to good therapy. My clients appreciate my client centered and accepting style and most of my referrals come from previous client's recommendations. I have extensive experience with addiction, codependence, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship issues, OCD, perfectionism, and ADHD.

Nothing is more satisfying than assisting my clients to break free from addiction and restore trust in significant relationships. I use my 25 years of experience to evaluate effectively and offer clear direction and support. Committed to Christian principles, I frequently consult with pastors, church leaders and other professionals. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Christian Sex Addiction Counselor with a Master's degree from the University of Chicago.

I enjoy working with children, adolescents, young adults, and parents. I have worked in a residential treatment home, community agency, psychiatric unit, and school setting; subsequently, I have experience working with a variety of issues. Some issues that I particularly enjoy working with include, but are not limited to, behavioral and relational issues, depression, anxiety, and trauma. I also enjoy working with athletes and sports-related issues. My approach is warm, accepting, interactive, and collaborative, and I work to tailor treatment to meet a client's individual needs through the use of a variety of treatment modalities.

Every person that comes to therapy has unique reasons for showing up. Some are bothered by constant intrusive worry thoughts; others are bogged down by intense sadness. Many have experienced events that have proven the world to be unsafe, unjust, and filled with pain. While the intentions for seeking therapy might all be different, almost everyone has the same general goal: to achieve a life worth living. It is my privilege and honor to assist you in figuring out what that looks like.

I specialize in the treatment of behavioral health disorders for motivated clients who are interested in collaborating and working to attain their goals. We will work together, primarily focused on the current situation and its solution, rather than the past. Through scientifically- supported methods, we will concentrate on your views and beliefs about your life, and how they are tied to your behaviors and emotions.

You are stronger, braver, and more resilient then your mind gives you credit for; but sometimes those thoughts and feelings can overwhelm us to the point where we lose ourselves and the things and people we value most. As a therapist, my goal is to allow you to see your emotions and thoughts as just that- and to reestablish the connection between actions and your unique, individual values. We as humans are all susceptible to emotional pain; how we deal with this pain- be it the pain of change, loss, or inexplicable anxiety and hopelessness- can define whether we evolve from these or stay stuck in it.

I understand that it can be difficult to seek help and I strive to create an environment that is safe, where trust has been established so that difficult issues can be discussed. Are you struggling to communicate with a loved one or family member? Have you recently faced significant changes or losses? Is there a thought pattern or behavior that you cannot control? I can offer a place to be heard, to tell your story, to understand how and why you get stuck, and to have the tools you need to move forward in life.

Hi there, my name is Felicity Dineen. I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and I am so excited at the possibility of getting to work along side you. I have extensive experience working with adults and teens struggling with a wide array of life stressors including relationship struggles, anxiety/depression, acceptance of self, grief, trauma, parenting concerns, and perinatal issues. Together, you will overcome challenges both present and in the past to help bring out the strengths within yourself that are already in existence.

My therapeutic approach is warm, casual, authentic, encouraging, and collaborative and I believe in using a strength based approach to assist clients in overcoming obstacles. I'm committed to helping clients identify goals, and provide the tools and skills necessary to reach those goals.

I believe that therapy can be an invaluable tool for growth, and I am honored when I can be a part of someone’s journey toward healing. Whether you are new to therapy or have tried it before, my aim is to help you identify and achieve your goals while also maintaining a compassionate and flexible perspective. I realize that everyone has their own pace for engaging in therapeutic work, and I hope to build a collaborative relationship around this.

In a word, my approach to therapy is relational. I am at my best when I am centered, curious and genuinely engaged in my client's experience... exploring, nuancing and understanding their unique perspective and the struggles they are facing. I believe in the importance of finding the right "fit" between client and therapist and it is for that reason that I strive to be authentic and fully engaged in every session. My training, areas of specialization and personal style are well suited for those who might be seeking to go deeper in their understanding of themselves and their relationships.

I assume you're here because you're struggling in some way, and that whatever you've been doing in your life to deal with your pain simply isn't working any longer. My clients usually find me through some kind of loss - a divorce or relationship upset, illness, or other transitional experience, often accompanied by difficult feelings and behaviors. For more than 15 years I've been working with individuals, couples, and families, helping them to get in touch with their feelings and emotions, related to these painful experiences.

I have extensive experience and expertise in understanding the intricacies of trauma and its impact on mental and physical well-being. My approach integrates trauma-focused, mindfulness, attachment-based, holistic, energy, and somatic modalities. I am direct in my approach and work best with individuals who are ready for change. My specialties include: Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, Complex-PTSD, LGBTQ+ related Traumas and Challenges, Anxiety, Depression, Navigating Toxic Relationships and Healing from Abusive Relationships

Brian has been in the addiction/mental health field since 1993. He has been described as practical, realistic, and down-to-earth therapist who is naturally inquisitive and goal oriented. He brings his warm and light hearted sense of humor to the therapy process, as he has learned that the best way to lead a person toward wellbeing and happiness is to make the psychotherapy process relaxed, enjoyable and non-judgmental. But when necessary, Brian has a serious side, as addictions are for many, can be a life or death problem.

My experience encompasses the successful treatment of a wide range of mental health issues, including: anxiety, depression, addiction, PTSD, bipolar disorder, grief, and relationship issues including infidelity. My goal is to build a safe connection with my clients. Within our therapeutic relationship, clients are enabled to honestly assess themselves and their circumstances, charting a path to healing- a re-integration of mind, body, soul, environment/community.
