Female Therapists in Barrington, IL
I work with adults who are struggling with depression and change of life issues (i.e., job loss, divorce, illness), and in particular those who are experiencing grief and loss. I have a great deal of experience working with the aging adult population and the issues that accompany this phase of life. I believe that most issues have an associated spiritual component to them, and if the client wishes to incorporate spirituality into the therapeutic work, I am comfortable doing so. The short term goal of therapy is symptom reduction, while the long-term goal is transformation.

Hi, I'm Chloe! Having a former career in education has taught me that there is always something new to discover. Together, we will explore parts of your Self that are impacting your daily life. That could look like anxiety, family conflict, depression, or self-esteem, to name a few. You can expect a warm and non-judgmental atmosphere, with a little bit of humor and a lot of empathy.

Over my career, I have had the opportunity to work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, chronic and acute illness, caregiver stress and burnout, life transitions, grief/loss and dementia. I work with families and individuals from adolescence through adulthood. My goal is to create a non-judgmental, safe space for all of my clients to feel comfortable processing whatever personal concern they choose to address. Valuing open communication, empathy and kindness, I create a space for clients to work towards their goals and support them in their journey of self exploration.

A little bit of anxiety might be helpful to motivate you to study for a test, prepare for a work presentation, or make sure everything is locked up before you go away on a trip. However, excessive anxiety can become so difficult to manage that your day is ruled by your symptoms. If you are someone that finds your anxiety interfering with your daily life, I can help you manage your worries so that you can enjoy what actually matters to you.

Throughout life’s journey, our experiences shape and mold our beliefs and understanding of ourselves and the world around us. Often, we can seamlessly integrate these experiences into a deeper sense of self and navigate life more effectively. However, there are moments when we encounter challenges that disrupt our self-confidence and sense of security, leaving us feeling adrift and powerless. Choosing to embark on the therapeutic journey can be a profound step towards self-care and resilience in the face of these difficult moments.
