Therapists in Beach Park, IL

As a Licensed Therapist & Registered Nurse my approach is holistic, client centered, & compassionate. You can expect a warm, comforting space. We will work together to address your needs & goals. I offer you my sincere, empathetic, genuine and experienced care. I serve children & adults and provide assistance on an array of issues and topics.

If you are having feelings of sadness, irritability, hopelessness or are currently experiencing a life stressor, we can help. In addition to being a Licensed Professional Counselor, I am a Community Psychologist who has considerable experience working with many different populations. I am licensed and certified to meet the growing needs of the world we live in. I am committed to developing a caring and compassionate relationship with the individuals I serve.

Maybe you notice that things feel off. Like, you are always waiting for something to go wrong. Maybe you feel like you are undeserving of good things in life. I can assure you that this is not true, but you are going to have trouble believing this. With time, patience, and good therapy I assure you that this can change. I want to create an energetic and motivated therapy experience. With the help of tools like EMDR we can accelerate the process of therapy and help you get to the kind of life that you want.

Living to our fullest requires attention to all aspects of health: spiritual, emotional, physical and social. Therapy can be a positive step toward better spiritual, mental, and physical health and stronger, more resilient relationships. In working toward health, many challenges and difficulties (such as unproductive patterns of thought, behavior, and relating) will be considered. Clients may count on support as they identify, recognize, and use their God-given strengths, skills, and assets in this process.

Do you long to have more fulfilling relationships? Is pain from your past or worry about the future stealing your joy to live in the present? I am here for you during difficult seasons and hold a safe space for healing and growth.

My experience and educational background are directly related and have provided me with a well-rounded background in Therapy.

Hello, unfortunately at this time, I cannot accept new clients as I am full serving the individuals I am currently working with. Please feel free to email me if you would like to be added to a waitlist to start servies in the near future. Thank You.

When it comes to mental health treatment, our approach is simple and unique: our accomplished team of physicians and therapists work together to diagnose and treat your body, mind and spirit as a whole. We are one of the few practices combining traditional treatment with evidence-based alternative therapies, all under one roof. We are privileged to have changed the lives of many families in Chicago's North Shore, as well as out-of-state and foreign visitors. Our "whole body" approach to treating mental health conditions is supported by clinical studies. These include but are not limited to: Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), diet and exercise, spiritual/social evaluation, yoga and art therapy. Many still focus only on the brain, treating symptoms, not causes. In many cases they over-prescribe medications. While our physicians do prescribe medications as needed, what sets us apart is our commitment to explore all options. We search for root causes and provide the most appropriate treatment, not merely the most convenient one. When we do prescribe, we go the extra mile to customize a plan that minimizes side effects. You and your family deserve the best in healthcare!

My ideal client is motivated and ready to explore the issues that bring you to this site. Whether, depressed, anxious, or both. Whether you also have a substance use problem, or problems in a relationship I am here for you.

Life can be challenging at times, and it's perfectly normal to feel overwhelmed and exhausted from trying to manage everything on your own. If you're doing your best but still struggling to get ahead, don't worry – I'm here to help! I will be with you every step of the way as you work towards your goals and become the best person you can be. I will take the time to learn who you are as an individual and what matters most in your life. I will value your strengths, listen carefully to your needs, and guide you toward healing and lasting change.

One of my greatest joys in life is helping others. It hurts my heart to see others in pain believing something is wrong with them. I want you to know you are not alone. Life is full of commitments, work, stress, transitions, and other people. It is often hard to take time for ourselves. I work with clients experiencing a broad range of issues from anxiety to spirituality and everything in between. I strive to treat each client as an individual, meeting every client where they are along their life journey.

I have been a therapist for over 20 years. I love people, and appreciate that my work allows me to develop authentic, meaningful relationships with my clients. I bring warmth, compassion and humor into my sessions. This helps establish and nurture a strong, therapeutic bond, which is essential for the difficult work of therapy. Life is really hard, and therapy can help reveal hope in the midst of pain and confusion. It illuminates the inner strength and resiliency that people need, but often can’t see or access within themselves.

I seek to provide a haven where clients can feel safe to explore whatever surfaces in their present challenges, transitions and internal experience. Many times thoughts, emotions, behaviors and experiences are understood, and personal truths can surface, particularly because of the safety and trust found in the therapeutic relationship. Ultimately this place of trust and non judgement is the core of healing and where personal growth occurs. While there are many models of treatment this is the essence of what I seek to offer and value most.

I am a Marriage and Family Therapist skilled at creating a safe therapeutic space where hope fuels change, forges resilience and inspires growth for families, couples and individuals. I have been honored to work in multiple cross-cultural contexts and am dedicated to incorporating culturally sensitive and contextually informed practices in therapy. I am passionate about empowering clients to find congruence, balance, self-compassion, and transformation in their lives. I offer a warm and supportive atmosphere that is strength-based and goal-oriented.

I believe it takes a tremendous amount of courage to seek therapy, and I seek to honor and respect this effort in every session through a collaborative process. During our work together, my mission is to work as a team as exploration of difficult thoughts, memories, and feelings arise. My hope is for clients to feel they can be their authentic selves while reflecting on their strengths and bringing awareness to their vulnerabilities and needs through a non-judgmental approach. I have extensive training in working with adults with a special interest in working with first responders, as well as other clinicians, and veterans.

My name is Robyn, and I’m here to partner with you in discovering answers and transforming painful and confusing experiences. It is my passion and privilege to be able to empower and support adult individuals toward feeling freer and more peaceful.

I believe everyone has the right to be heard and feel important.

Therapy begins with creating a trusting therapeutic relationship where you can feel safe. Together, we will identify what is the life you want in order to create a road map to get there. I believe that therapy is a partnership and it is a privilege to share that journey with you.
