Anne Kellstedt Ramirez, LCPC is an experienced professional counselor in Wheaton, IL. It is hard to have peace of mind if we're not connecting well with others, or at war within ourselves. When we are nourished in supportive relationships, we are less vulnerable to depression, anxiety and addictions. I've been assisting adults of all ages who are looking to make a change in their lives. It is a deep privilege for me to journey beside my clients as they grow, and my therapeutic style is warm & collaborative. One of my passions is treating mental health professionals, or anyone looking to become more genuinely themselves.

Everyone deserves a space where they feel seen, heard, and understood. The relationship I foster with my clients is most important when working together. I am a trauma, attachment, and addiction therapist passionate about helping individuals create a healthier sense of self and understanding. I work with emerging adults and adults who would like to alleviate symptoms of anxiety and depression, resolve past trauma and attachment injuries, develop strategies to reduce substance misuse and abuse, manage executive function deficits from ADHD, and decrease codependent patterns and behaviors.

As a clinician, it is important for me to establish a safe and collaborative environment in which you feel heard, valued, and seen in the midst of your journey. I am passionate about seeing emotional healing, reflective insight, personal awareness, and meaningful growth in my clients. I include trauma, social justice, multicultural, and family lenses to witness this. I am also enthusiastic about encouraging a holistic approach to health and wellness as part of the progress toward wholeness. Additionally, I embrace diversity and culture as part of our collaborative process to establish a strong foundation and promote positive change.

My ideal client is someone who has the drive to be an active part of their treatment. I love hearing people's stories and have a strong appreciation of the struggles many go through before they decide to go to counseling. I want to understand the world through my client's perspectives in a way that allows me to help them based on their value system. They may struggle with depression or anxiety but they have made the effort to call in and make a change. They are comfortable exploring their values in session to help me understand where their values apply to past decisions making and propel future change they want to achieve.

Hi there! I am Christine :) I am a passionate-practicing LCPC in North Naperville. I have over 10 years of experience. I enjoy working with adults who have problematic relationships, childhood issues, and who feel stuck in their present life. It might be trauma, depression, anxiety, but whatever it is we can help you get "unstuck" together. I believe everyone has potential to help themselves, but sometimes we need some guidance. Many of us weren't taught how to deal with our emotions and feelings, and as a result, our adult lives suffer in ways we aren't educated to fix. I am here to help guide YOU to your BEST SELF.

I offer playful interventions to children and teens, ages 4 and up.
