Adults Therapists in Cortland, IL
I have experience working with children as young as four years old, adolescents, adults, couples, and families and have a strong tie to the systems dynamic in my clinical work. I work with clients experiencing a wide variety of concerns including anxiety, depression, relational problems, social isolation and bullying, family and parent-child conflict, school concerns, and a multitude of other presenting issues. I work from a compassionate, strengths-based approach and promote positive, healthy change through self-advocacy. Working from a systemic perspective with individuals, couples, and families allows me to assist my clients in actualizing the change they wish to see in their lives. In addition, I promote the process of change through differentiation of self and gaining an understanding of how individuals work and function within a system. I recently underwent a training in the Certificate Program in Traumatic Stress Studies through the Trauma Center at JRI and have also received training to become a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. I recently attended the Childhood Trauma Symposium to increase my efforts in being an effective trauma-informed clinician.

I feel privileged to be a part of someone's journey to understanding their past, being aware of the present and setting goals for their future.

Hello and welcome to my unique practice, A Place Within. Although trained in traditional talk therapy, I also focus on creative therapies that integrate the mind, body, and spirit. These include sandplay therapy for adults and children, play therapy for children, dream work, art, and hypnotherapy. Rather than staying in the analytical areas of the brain, as talk therapy traditionally functions, these creative approaches integrate the whole brain into treatment.
