Therapists in Morris, IL

This a group practice that employs clinicans of various ethnicities and backgrounds. People come to therapy due to feeling excessive stress at work, at home, or in their relationships. They find the pressures of everyday life have exceeded their abilities, overwhelmed their senses, and left them with an inability to cope. They are often having problems with school, completing tasks, getting along with others at work, and finding activities enjoyable. We believe in the resiliency of the human spirit, and that therapy is a process of exploring and getting to know oneself.

My area of focus is adults looking to improve their mental health. I have a passion for individuals dealing with post-traumatic stress, low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, and other issues. My hope is to use the uplifting power of music to break down walls and create something beautiful out of the pain.

Hello! What brings you here? Each person has a unique story and that story is often the key to the best solutions. Maybe there is something you want to change about yourself, or maybe life is not going as expected and you want to explore possibilities. You may have a past grief or trauma that is making moving forward difficult or complicated. Perhaps a new situation has thrown your life "off track" and you are having trouble adjusting to the new reality. I am here to explore the possibilities with you. You've got this!

We all long for hope, healing, and relief, and they can be hard to find alone. If you are here, it probably means you want life to feel better and I can understand that desire. So often, we just want our relationships to change, to experience less stress and anxiousness, to be less troubled by painful memories, and to feel better about ourselves. Sometimes all we need is a safe and comfortable space to be heard and understood and sometimes we need direction, clarity and new skills. The goal is to find the combination of factors that can bring healing for you.

I am honored to be a part of the therapeutic process meeting clients in their current life circumstances and partnering with them as they process their thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Through the development of an warm, non-judgemental, therapeutic relationship and the use of a variety of different art materials I offer clients the space to gain personal insight, develop new skills, and connect in a new way with themselves and others. My goal as an art therapist using an integrative approach, is to create an environment, regardless of artistic ability, that fosters creativity, individual expression, and a secure sense of self.

You want to work through the anxiety and depression from living in a world that isn't built for people like us. We can work together on to figure out your values. You and I will create goals towards finding your own happiness and feeling powerful.

I am a bi-lingual Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor with NOVI Counseling Services PLLC. I enjoy working with individuals, families, children, adolescents and adults. I have a warm, collaborative approach when working with people to help them manage anxiety, mood disorders, stress, conflict, school issues, and life transitions. I work with the person to choose which therapy method will be the most helpful in their situation. I have clinical experience in community mental health and schools. I have lived in Latin America for over twenty years and provide counseling in Spanish and English.

For the past 12 years, I enjoyed working with people seeking supportive services such as counseling and mental health referrals. While working with people in therapy, I utilize a strengths-based approach. I believe in meeting people where they are and providing educational as well as open social support with mental health needs. My goal is to help people express their thoughts/feelings and develop healthy coping mechanisms along with giving support. I work with individuals, couples, families, adolescents, and adults in counseling. I have a specialty in treating anxiety as a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional (CCATP).

I provide psychological therapy which focuses on the way that people think and behave. My practice specializes in working with children/adolescents and college/post-college adults who have problems adapting to their current life circumstances. Each person brings into treatment all their experiences, both joyous and problematic, which provides a base for the development of individualized goals and objectives.

We provide a broad range of psychological and diagnostic services to children, adolescents, families and adults. Trained in the assessment of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity disorder, clinical and legal issues related to neuropsychological, emotional and intellectual deficits.

At the heart of my work, I approach therapy from a relational, psychodynamic therapy model, which means I believe the relationship between the client and therapist can be a transformative component in the growth process. I am a LPC combining modern neurobiology with holistic somatic healing, the psychodynamic therapeutic relationship, and body-based practices to create an experiential awakening on a bodily, psychological and emotional level. I work from a somatic-centered therapeutic approach, meaning that I believe that the body tells the stories and narratives. For more information, my website is: www.kellypastori.com
