Hi there! My name is Carissa and I am a Licensed therapist serving Will, Grundy and surrounding counties. I have been working in private practice for the past 6 years and specialize in working with adolescents/young adults who struggle with emotional regulating, anxiety, depression, grief, divorce etc. My door is always open to anyone who is willing to share their story with me. Together, we will create and maintain goals to strive for a lifestyle thats fulfills your needs.

Entering into therapy can be a difficult decision. My goal is to help make that transition easier by focusing on my client's strengths and abilities and encouraging a path of self-growth. I use a collaborative style, making the individual an active participant in the process. We will work to define the most serious problems, set realistic expectations, and focus on symptom reduction. My promise to all my clients is that I will respect them as individuals and work my hardest to improve their lives. The hardest part is often taking the first step, call to arrange for a free, no obligation 30 minute in person or phone consultation.

I believe in creating a therapeutic environment that is conducive to healing / growth. It is important I develop a strong, genuine relationship with clients that allows me to deeply understand each person's own unique experiences and to accept each person as they are without judgment. I meet clients where they're at in their life processes and collaborate with them in order to help navigate and find solutions to their struggles. I can help with self harming, divorce, relationship issues, identity struggles, anxiety, depression, stress, emotion regulation, etc.
