Therapists in Flanagan, IL

At times, we can find ourselves dealing with unresolved feelings of anxiety, fear, self-doubt, shame, and trauma. However we can still blossom. The therapeutic process goes beyond the individual. It must be addressed within the individual and their environment, and should include their cultural experiences, practices, and traditions, as well as their spirituality; this approach provides collective healing. I practice a holistic approach to providing therapeutic care. I integrate components of the mind, body, and spirit within therapeutic modalities to address the needs of each individual or family.

Our staff are licensed in Illinois and have specialized training in areas of trauma, anxiety disorders, substance use disorders, and mood disorders. Some other areas of expertise include crisis intervention, family and couples counseling, and group counseling. In addition, we have created and facilitated several groups and utilize a cognitive-behavioral and trauma-informed approach in working with clients. We also view our clients holistically, which considers all aspects of a person's life. Rather than treating just the symptoms, this approach looks deeper and tries to uncover underlying causes.
