Female Therapists in Champaign County, IL

My name is Brittney Walker, LSW. I work with adolescents and adults on various mental health concerns. I provide clients with ADHD therapy, Anxiety therapy, Depression therapy, and Grief counseling. I find that life can feel debilitating when your world feels disorganized, unmanageable, and out of control. Noone should feel defeated by the daily tasks of life. Living with ADHD might feel like fighting a constant battle of distractions, overstimulation, and impulsivity. ADHD impacts your brain’s executive functioning and can lead to you feeling a constant state of panic, worry and sadness.

Are you feeling anxious, depressed, or overwhelmed? Maybe you're having relationship or family difficulties, struggling with the impact of trauma, or just having a rough time lately. It's hard to face ourselves, our lives & our experiences, but I believe it's even harder to continue to ignore or delay, our own desire for change. I'm here as we figure out how to help you cope, heal, and/or grow.

First of all, I love you and sincerely care about you. With my clients, I not only care about them, but am genuinely present and empathetically direct. Your perceived issues intrigue me because I know that whatever they are, it's related to the planet earth and being human.

Did you know that members of the LGBTQ+ community experience mental illness at higher rates than their cisgender, heterosexual counterparts? It’s not because being queer makes you predisposed to poor mental health, but because the adversity and prejudice experienced by marginalized populations can take such a toll on one’s mind. I want to provide a safe space to process trauma and stress that may be linked to living in a society that’s becoming increasingly hostile to those who have been “othered” by those in power.

There are so many reasons people want to go to therapy: to learn more about themselves and their relationships, to process life events, to share things that are difficult to share with other people, to be vulnerable, or to explore how past experiences have shaped them. You don’t need to be in a crisis to benefit from therapy. It can be a wellness tool that is useful for maintaining a healthy, balanced lifestyle.

From time to time, everyone has struggles in life, whether it's adjusting to loss or transitions, coping with problems in relationships, or with balancing the demands of daily life. Though it can really help to talk things over with a professional counselor, sometimes people hesitate, fearing the possibility of being judged or not understood. I believe that providing a safe, trusting, and nonjudgmental environment is one of the most important elements of good therapy, an element that allows positive change to occur.

In life's whirlwind, finding a sanctuary for respite and inner peace can feel like a distant dream. You might be questioning your worth or wondering if anyone else shares your feelings. Unexpected events may have thrown you off course, leaving you grappling to move forward, feeling immobilized. Perhaps, as a parent, you've exhausted all avenues in aiding your child or teen, feeling at a loss. Whether you're striving to unleash your full potential or seeking ways to foster family well-being, you've found a supportive space here.

When we experience distress in our lives, whether in the form of depression, from a traumatic experience, in response to a loss, or as a result of struggles with addiction - we are challenged by our minds and bodies to seek understanding, connection and healing. I have found that when we look at these challenges and face them together, we can find relief.
