Life Coaching Therapists in Deerfield, IL

Life is complicated. Why complicate it more? My goal is to help you find easy solutions to everyday challenges that affect your personal life and relationships. For a very affordable fee you can achieve peace of mind for yourself and find satisfaction in relationships with people you love. It is often difficult to find time to get help while managing a busy lifestyle, which is why I offer a specialized, no commitment, pay-as-you-go system. I offer a first-time consultation for $110 and all future visits are only $55 per hour.

Some of the key objectives that drive my coaching efforts include: • Build on individual strengths. • Create intentional and mindful habits. Develop Beliefs and Behaviors that breed self-confidence and success. • Enhance life skills and strategic coping strategies. • Take ownership of one’s potential to succeed. • Humor, play and laughter matter. • Manage difficult daily life challenges confidently. • Minimize achievement disruptors. • Develop the ability to be effective and consistent in meeting daily personal and professional demands.

Contentment and happiness can often feel elusive in the busy, complicated lives that we lead. Sometimes, understanding the reason for our unhappiness seems just as elusive. The way we feel about our true selves as well as the meaning we give certain events in our lives can effect how we cope with the challenges that come our way. Often, we find ourselves in situations that feel beyond our control to recover from. Deep down, you are resilient, and know life could feel better than it does.

To young people the world is chaotic; filled with academic, parental and peer pressures. Their inner strengths and desires get lost amid the noise. I teach my client to see through the chaos and to take control of what is best for each of them. Young people need another voice, an objective voice that makes them question who they are and what they want. Not only the voice of a parent, teacher or school because all three are unable to be truly objective. My role is that of mentor/guide asking the question "What is it that you really want?"

IS THE LIFE YOU ARE LIVING NOW THE LIFE THAT WANTS TO LIVE IN YOU? If not, I can help! Create the reality you want. Dare to dream. Find your passion. Change directions. Discover your untapped potential. Celebrate relationships. Enrich your spirit. Live your best life by being your BEST self! With a collaborative counseling/coaching style, I offer guidance, support, education and strategies to empower you to achieve your goals and live a healthy, balanced life. Working together will provide you with opportunities to grow and learn to: Accept Accountability for your Choices, Actions & Reactions

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Professional Life Coach with over twenty years of experience in private practice. Taking the first step to get into therapy can be met with a multitude of emotions. My belief is that the most important component to a successful therapeutic experience is a connection and a trusting relationship with your provider. I practice using a solution-focused and forward-thinking model in which your individual needs will be assessed and addressed specifically.

It is my honor and delight to assist people in using their own wisdom to balance their lives. Clients say I am easy to be with and talk to, and I do not judge. We explore the cognitive, physical, spiritual and emotional realms of life experience. And we find patterns, identify core values and can focus on specific challenges. My professional goal is to provide a comfortable, non-judgmental and protected place in which we can explore your life and your concerns freely.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I provide a nonjudgmental and safe therapeutic environment for my clients and I value client-therapist alliance above anything else. I have a direct yet empathetic therapy style, collaborating with my clients to help achieve their goals. I love working with couples who struggle with communication and connection, who want to learn how to reconnect or "fight better". I also love empowering partners to find their voice and express their needs in a relationship.

Do you feel like you are spending most of your time somewhere between failing and just getting by and not really thriving? Do you feel stressed, overwhelmed, unfulfilled, anxious, depressed, or unhappy? Have you tried making health changes, but find yourself falling short time and time again? As a clinical health psychologist and coach, I empower clients to navigate life challenges, address general dissatisfaction, and realize their potential for happiness and a meaningful life.

Do you feel trapped? Are you stuck in survival mode? You might be burning out, drowning in tasks, having difficulty speaking up for yourself or setting boundaries, growing resentful of your boss, family or partner, and abandoning your self care. Relying on substance use or other addictive behaviors to keep going or just keep your head above water? All you want is some silence, calm, and peace, but life keeps cycling in chaos.

My clients are more than the challenges they are facing, whether it be depression, anxiety, ADHD, life transitions, etc. My clients are people first who are looking for guidance in creating the coping skills necessary for relief and a fulfilling life. It is important to my clients that their therapist truly hear their concerns, needs, and goals, as well as be the person they can be fully transparent. A safe and nurturing setting is created with my clients in order for mutual trust, openness, and respect to emerge. My clients want to see the evolvement of positive changes occur in their lives, as do I.

I have over 20 years of experience as a therapist in the mental health field. I am passionate about helping people overcome their life stressors, past hurts, and to function in a healthier way. I help clients who suffer from mental health disorders, current problems, substance related addictions along with process related addictions (i.e. sex, gambling, shopping). I most frequently use Insight Oriented Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Internal Family Systems (IFS) approaches; as well as CBT and DBT when appropriate. I work with adults, adolescents, couples, and family members.

I work with teens and adults of all ages to help them overcome self-defeating behaviors, sort through difficult thoughts and feelings, and make whatever behavior changes they would like in their lives. Many of my client struggle with issues such as relationship challenges, work stress, overcoming traumatic events, grief, and substance abuse.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist who has devoted my clinical work to assisting adult individuals with a broad spectrum of concerns. I provide warm and caring support to those struggling with life's challenges. Specifically, I enjoy working with individuals in the following areas: depression, anxiety, substance abuse, life transitions, low self-esteem, communication, and relationship concerns.

As an experienced clinical-health psychologist, I specialize in helping people navigate life transitions (divorce, remarriage, parenting, relationships, work, health), manage food and weight issues (binge/emotional eating, weight management, weight-loss surgery), deal with addictions of all kinds (substance use, co-dependency, recovery, internet, shopping), develop healthier ways to manage stress and illness, and to deal with anxiety and depression. My approach to therapy is collaborative, interactive, and tailored to your unique needs and goals.

We all experience emotional and physical difficulties from time to time. Often we are able to deal with these life experiences ourselves. Sometimes, however, it is not possible for us to resolve these challenges alone. In these situations professional help is appropriate. Until fifty years ago anyone experiencing psychological and/or physical stress was treated individually. Family therapy grew out of a simple but profound idea: People in crisis can often be best understood and treated within their own famiies. As a certified family therapist, as well as a certified psychoanalyst, I have the education necessary to see both famiies and individuals.

At Heart Light, we believe that personal growth is a natural psychological process that fundamentally belongs to you, not to us. Some mental health professionals seem to imagine themselves as mental and emotional surgeons, whose goal is to identify problems and then fix them for you. We envision ourselves as more akin to doctors that deliver babies. We are ready to intervene as and when needed, but our primary role is to facilitate a natural process that belongs, first and foremost, to you. Our goal is to guide and encourage your growth by helping you to empower yourself.
