Teletherapy for Illinois

I want to commend you for your bravery in taking the first step towards reaching out for help. Counseling can give you a non-judgmental place to vent as well as a place to learn about new ways to manage overwhelming feelings. As a therapist, my main way of understanding how people work is through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. It can help us challenge our negative thoughts and utilize healthy coping skills. I primarily take a humanistic approach with my clients and make sure to address psychosocial, biological, developmental, spiritual, and cultural issues as needed since every client is unique.

We live in a stressful, complex, and contradictory world. And though you do your best to cope with the chaos around you, sometimes it gets overwhelming. The chaos can make you question your decisions - sometimes it can even make you question who and how you are. Why are there so many obstacles to the life and relationships you want? Shouldn’t there be a clearer path? It can be so hard to navigate through the noise. Craving to connect more fully but end up feeling needy and more alone. Wanting to feel safe, but unease grows and bleeds through. Striving to be authentic, but there is so much noise it is hard to hear your true self.

Our experienced team of therapists has been helping clients achieve their best self, better relationships, and a more balanced life since 2012. The more common struggles we help clients overcome are anxiety and depression, trauma and PTSD, relationship problems, and parenting challenges. If you have been wrestling with these or other issues, we are here to help. We work with older kids (8+), adolescents, adults, couples, and families. Most of our therapists are EMDR trained (EMDRIA approved) and also use other effective approaches including CBT, DBT, and systemic approaches.

Hi! My name is Cillian Green (he-him). As a therapist, it is important to me to work with my clients to understand the present day through the lens of past experiences, including significant relationships and our families of origin. The stories we tell ourselves about the past can have such an impact on our present! My sessions characterized by humility, curiosity, and humor. My clients come from a variety of backgrounds and use their therapy time to work through challenges related to stress, anxiety, depression, identity, sexuality, and executive functioning.

I believe that life is a journey with moments including lessons, hardships, and celebrations. All can lead us towards personal growth- especially with some help along the way. We are all equipped with the ability to make choices that redefine our lives and, in the process, find peace in the midst of suffering. We are not defined by our weaknesses, strengths, past traumas, choices, or diagnoses. Rather, we are all equipped with the inner strength to change our destiny. Together, we can work together to help achieve your goals so we can live a richer life and learn to play in the rain.

Most of us could benefit from more connection, better communication and practical day-to-day strategies for our relationships, family and work. Working through transitions in life and want a better playbook? Need parenting advice to create a harmonious home? You simply want or need someone to talk with to sort out life's challenges. You want someone in your corner to be your biggest cheerleader and fiercest challenger. That's where we come in. Warm and Competent. Practical. Relevant. Creative. Challenging and Gentle. Humorous and Kind. We'll work together with intention to get over your hurdles and make an impact that matters.

Could you use a safe space to process a major life transition? Are you looking for guidance on improving your relationships? I see therapy as a valuable tool to reflect on life, unpack how you're feeling, and discover what changes you can make to be more satisfied. My therapeutic style tends to be a good fit for clients who identify as perfectionists, struggle with anxiety and uncertainty, or who are experiencing stress from significant phase of life changes like a new job, marriage, or having kids.

As we've all experienced through the pandemic to certain degrees; life events can be unexpected, overwhelming, and traumatic. You deserve space to process what brings you to therapy with a professional who can validate your experiences and commit to working with you, at your pace, to develop solutions. I work from a culturally-aware, trauma-informed perspective to ensure that you feel seen and heard, and offer Art Therapy.

On the outside it seems you have it together. You're successful and well respected but inside there's a fear that they'll find out what a fraud you are. When the mask falls they'll all know the effort it takes to get things done. They don't know how loud it is in your head: all the noise, the anxiety, insecurity, negative self evaluations. You get things done but not without a ton of energy. It impacts work, self, and even relationships. You're tired and lost. This is life as you know it but it doesn't actually have to stay this way.

Life is challenging. Nobody rides for free. You’ve been struggling with mood, energy and worry for awhile now (maybe for as long as you can remember). You may have noticed your thinking amplifying your unpleasant emotions and negatively impacting your relationships. Maybe some of your experiences have left you feeling stuck, defeated and unworthy. It can be hard to imagine a life without these things present, but I’m here to tell you that things can change, and you don’t need to go through it alone. With the right skills and support, you can build the life you have always wanted and move through the challenges you have experienced.

I offer an empathetic, supportive, and accepting environment for my clients to feel heard and understood while also challenged and inspired to take on new perspectives, ways of thinking, and daily practices. Therapy is a process that can provide tools to relieve immediate stress, but also an opportunity to explore the underlying meanings, behavioral patterns, and relationship dynamics in order to lead a life of authenticity and genuine fulfillment. My clients also strive to positively impact society.
