Christian Counseling Therapists in Naperville, IL
My specialty areas include: depression, anxiety, grief, couple/marriage counseling, Christian counseling, identity issues, recovery after a separation or divorce, infidelity, new transitions, career/college counseling, family conflict, work environment issues, impostor syndrome, teacher/administration/education work-related stress, and parenting stress.
Hello! At the beginning, my focus will be on getting to know you. Everyone has a story to tell and as you tell yours, I will be looking for your personal character strengths (we all have them). Your character strengths will help you achieve the positive change(s) you are seeking. Once I get a grasp on your strengths, we will combine your natural strengths with new strategies and supports from a variety of research-based resources. It is my goal that each and every counseling session be preventative, proactive, and/or empowering. Often, you will be given homework so the therapy continues even when we are not meeting.
