Somatic Therapists in 60610

I believe in whole person care. This includes not only mental health care but an assessment of the overall wellness of each individual I meet with. While my work focuses primarily on your current life stressors, previous traumas and mental health issues I also offer nutrition counseling, health and wellness recommendations and overall whole person care. My therapeutic framework is based in somatic therapy, CBT, EMDR, systems therapy and as well as other modalities as needed.

I look forward to working with you! As a specialist in treating trauma, I am passionate about helping clients strengthen resilience & improve relationships. My aim is to help you better handle difficult emotions and feel more self-compassion and self-acceptance. I enjoy helping couples and individuals with relationship issues (such as ineffective patterns of communicating, intimacy/attachment issues, invalidation, shame defense mechanisms) to heal and grow. I integrate wellness, interpersonal neurobiology, somatic psychology, cognitive behavioral therapy, and attachment theory in my work.

Would you like to feel ease throughout your day? Perhaps you are looking to reduce the symptoms of anxiety, stress or trauma. I am currently accepting new clients for the Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP), a short-term therapy that trains your nervous system to bring calm and connection into your everyday experience. SSP is helpful for folks with anxiety, trauma, chronic pain, sensory integration issues, and more.

As both a therapist and yoga teacher, I believe we have the capacity to access our own inner knowing and sense of awareness. Sometimes we just need some redirection about how to get there. I believe in a compassionate approach to therapy, which expands resiliency, encourages self-agency, and invites discovery.

I enjoy working with adults facing a wide range of challenges including substance abuse, trauma, anxiety, depression, chronic pain/illness and relationship issues. I enjoy helping clients move through and heal whatever it is that's keeping them stuck and from moving forward in the areas of their life they desire more from (relationships, career, health, purpose). My goal is to help my clients connect to their most authentic self to live their happiest and most connected lives.

Many people have been hurt in relationships. Yet, we often forget the capacity for learning, growth & healing these experiences can offer. I use evidence-based, holistic approaches to help clients uncover patterns, explore emotions, & develop coping skills that promote growth & recovery. Trauma & unresolved emotions often become "trapped" in our bodies & unconsciously compel us to repeat the same cycles, which we feel powerless to change. In addition to supporting my client’s relationships to themselves & to others, I help them regain a sense of empowerment & agency over their lives & a sense of safety in their mind, body, & spirit.

Seeking support is a deeply empowering act and I am here to help you on your healing journey. I believe that by working with the mind and the body, powerful connection and growth can occur. Have your worries impacted your ability to feel good in your body? Are you struggling in your relationships? Do you desire to learn new ways to engage with life’s complexities? By understanding the roots of our pain and distress, we can improve current circumstances and cultivate deeper fulfillment.

Many of the individuals and couples I work with experience anxiety, professional/work-related stress, interpersonal relationship issues, life transitions, depression, and unresolved trauma. Often, clients are looking to reflect on their personal and family history, build self-awareness, process everyday stressors, and/or develop coping skills. In my work with clients, I seek to establish a supportive, empathetic, and consistent relationship that will be the foundation for deep introspection and growth.

Hi My name is Erin Rieselman and I am a licensed psychotherapist(LCPC) offering supervison for those who are working toward LPC or LCPC licensing.I live in Chicago with my husband and our 2 albino boxers. I have been practicing therapy for the last 9 years at all levels of care(outpatient up to residential). I have also struggled with anxiety and panic disorder the last 15 years and have found real, holistic non pharmaceutical ways to live my life to the fullest. I am clinically trained in CBT, DBT, and Solution focused modalities. Although I live in a support therapy approach.

As a therapist, I understand that the decision to pursue therapy can be a difficult one. In my practice, I take a strengths-based, trauma-informed approach to therapy rooted in feminist and decolonial values. I view therapy as a collaborative partnership, and I prioritize clients’ right to self-determination. My clinical approach is LGBTQIA+ affirming, harm reductive, and informed by disability justice. We will work at a pace that feels safest to you because I understand that experiencing painful emotions or revisiting difficult experiences can be overwhelming.

Change and growth can be scary, but they are easier when we feel empowered and supported. As a therapist, my goal is to create a warm, comfortable, and non-judgmental environment to explore your experiences, emotions, and patterns. I utilize a person-centered, holistic approach to work alongside you and help you feel more connected to yourself, your values, and your goals. We all deserve to feel supported, safe, and confident, and I strive to create a space where we can identify and work toward your goals together.

Each of us has a unique life story that has brought us to this moment. As a therapist, I listen to my clients' stories while considering their diverse identities that shape and influence how they experience the world. My approach is holistic, aiming to help clients explore their past and present experiences, harmonize their minds and bodies, improve their relationships, and feel empowered to live authentically, just as they are. I also partner with clients as they journey towards healing from complex trauma, offering a safe and affirming space for their recovery.

Feeling steady and rooted in relationships with ourselves and others can help establish a foundation for a greater sense of wellbeing. Through a relational and attachment-focused approach, I support people hoping to have a deeper understanding of themselves and their connections with those around them (friends, family, community, etc.). This may include exploring cultural and ancestral identity, which is another component of someone better knowing who they are and how they engage with the world around them. I am also here for helping professionals seeking support through compassion fatigue and feeling overworked from their careers.

Life can be busy, stressful, and overwhelming. Knowing where to get support can be a challenge. At Head First Health we make it easy for you to begin therapy by offering convenient virtual sessions with therapists who truly understand YOU. We support millennial women experiencing anxiety, OCD, panic attacks, eating disorders, trauma, and depression. We specialize in using evidence based therapies such as CBT, ACT, ERP, and Mindfulness, to really target your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors in order to create impactful and lasting change.

Welcome to Deeper Connections Counseling (formerly the Center for Relational Transformation). We are a group of relationship experts who can help you with any relationship issue or any psychological issue that stems from relational difficulties (depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, PTSD, neglect, abuse). Based on what we now know from the latest research in neuroscience, deep healing on a fundamental level is possible. Instead of just treating symptoms, we can cue up and facilitate "corrective emotional experiences" that can profoundly heal past hurt and trauma for both individuals and couples. You don't need to suffer any longer.

I believe that the relationship formed between therapist and client is at the core of therapy; it is my privilege and responsibility to listen to my clients' experiences with respect and without judgment. I collaborate with my clients to help them trust their voice, honor their inner wisdom, strengthen their personal insight, listen to their bodies, access their story, bring meaning to their past experiences, and find hope for the future. Before becoming a psychotherapist I taught therapeutic dance to people of all ages.

Finding the right therapist can be hard work, but you're in the right place. I specialize in working with adults and couples in transition. I have experience facilitating change related to depression, anxiety, stress management, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, pregnancy or parenthood, and professional or educational transitions. At your first visit, we will focus on what brings you to therapy and what you are hoping to achieve.

There is something keeping you from having the happy, fulfilling life you crave. Anxiety about your career is causing performance issues at work. Is it keeping you from enjoying life outside of work? Maybe stress is keeping you from sleeping. Your anxiety is relentless and exhausting. Perhaps a past sexual assault or other trauma is making it difficult to have the healthy relationship you crave. It is making it hard to trust yourself and others. Or maybe you just can't get over that break-up. You're in a demanding career or caregiver role that has you burned out. You can't get away from low self-esteem and self-doubt.

For over 25 years, I have been offering spiritual companioning & guidance to spiritual seekers. I often serve as: 1) a guide during difficult life transitions, 2) guiding integration of spiritual life with life in the world of work and relationships 3) helping people find more love, joy, and spontaneity in life 4) clarification of your highest purpose and alignment with that purpose 5) deepening of your sense of spiritual awareness, 6) a path to awakening to embodied non-dual consciousness. If you are seeking awakening to greater spiritual aliveness, I can support you in your journey.
