Therapists in Du Page County, IL

As we walk through different seasons of our lives, we may all need caring individuals that can offer interventions, help and/or support during our circumstances. Going further, I believe that we were innately created to be in covenant or relationship with our creator, our family or other social circles that we choose to surround ourselves with. However, it is a very personal choice as to how each one of us chooses to go about this path. My strong belief in this basic aspect of life gave birth to Covenant Intuition Center.

Hi I'm Brian. If you feel overwhelmed by life’s challenges, I can help you sort things out and start moving forward again. Together we will create a strategy for working through the dilemma that is stressing you out. I want to hear your story. I will listen with compassion and without judgement. For the last 17 years, I have helped individuals, families & couples resolve problematic situations. They often gain insight from the experiences. Self-empowerment begins with self-understanding. I take the time to educate you about treatment you receive. I will help you to understand why you do what you do and feel what you feel.

I am a strength based therapist; I believe we each have strengths that can be built upon. I have a passion for families. A family is a system with a great deal of moving parts that often need some adjusting. I will first LISTEN with empathy and compassion and then help to identify goals. You may be someone experiencing a major life transition, a parent struggling to reach your child, a spouse feeling unsupported or a teen having no idea how to navigate. I can help you to process your struggles and develop effective, practical strategies to realize change or simply walk through a challenging chapter with a renewed sense of hope.

We all find ourselves at times in our life that we require nurturance to help us through life's changes. Loss in our lives requires care and guidance by a professional. Loss may be defined in various ways, it may be death, divorce, depression, addictions, infidelity, anxiety, infertility just to name a few. I work to specifically assist individuals, couples, families and groups to alleviate emotional disorders, to understand conscious and unconscious motivation, to resolve emotional, relationship and attitudinal conflicts and to help modify behaviors that interfere with effective emotional, social adaptive, and intellectual functioning.

I choose to approach therapy in a way that addresses each unique person as a whole with many complex components contributing to their current state. Through empathy and genuine interaction, I seek to understand each person in the moment. I provide a warm and caring therapeutic environment that lets clients explore the problems they are looking to change. My goal is to help clients make changes to find happiness and fulfillment by offering interventions and information for success.

I work with adults (ages 18 and up) in a private practice setting. I see clients in person and via telehealth. I have worked in private practice for over a decade and work with a variety of populations. My specialties include, but are not limited to: Eating Disorders: Compulsive Overeating/Binge Eating, Anorexia Nervosa and Bulimia Nervosa, Depression, Anxiety, Adjustment Disorders, Relationship/ Marital issues, Stress Management/Wellness, Grief & Loss, Mood Disorders and Trauma.

Hello, my name is Jessica- I am a licensed clinical professional counselor. I am passionate about assisting clients with many diverse presenting challenges, some of which include anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, self-injury, self-acceptance, relationship struggles, self-esteem, and identity formation. I enjoy working with clients ranging from teens to adults and have a broad range of experience working in school, hospital, PHP/IOP, and outpatient mental health settings.

My therapeutic purpose is committed to helping people suffering from everyday life-stressors such as relationship problems, family conflicts, work issues, behavior problems in children and adolescents as well as more complex mental health difficulties such as anxiety, depression, trauma, and mood disorders. My goal is to help others find empowerment and self-determination through solutions such as self-care, self-acceptance and effective modalities for change to help resolve problems. My services are aimed at meeting each individual where they are currently at in their process of changing and growing towards self-improvement.

I know the idea of therapy can seem overwhelming or frightening at first, but you should take pride in exploring your first step. I can help ease those fears and we can work together to address whatever may be getting in your way to living a happier, more fulfilled life. Everyone needs help at times, whether it requires addressing past issues or more current problems, and therapy enables you to receive necessary support, develop skills, embrace your strengths, and make desired changes in a safe, judgment-free space. As no two individuals are exactly alike, sessions are tailored to meet your own unique needs.

***Dr. Sachdev currently has limited daytime availability at both offices***A therapist can be an ally and partner during times when life presents us with challenges that make us feel stuck. A strong therapeutic relationship can help us feel safe and comfortable as we work to understand ourselves and get 'unstuck'. As a clinician, I aim to develop a strong therapeutic alliance with my clients. I am present and accessible to my clients. I have a warm and very down-to-earth style that helps my clients find their voice as we embark on a journey towards empowerment.

I believe we are the experts of ourselves and likely have the answers we are searching for within us. However, how do we find and make sense of something that may lie deep within? Therapy is a helpful tool to assist in sorting thoughts, feelings, and beliefs to find the resolution you need. I applaud you for either just beginning this process or continuing to search for the right therapeutic match to suit your needs. My intent is to provide a safe and supportive space through your counseling experience.

Seeking help can be scary and overwhelming, but you are not alone! I am here to offer a safe, nonjudgmental, and comfortable place that you can feel heard and validated. I believe that building strong foundations and relationships with people are imperative to the growth and healing of an individual’s mind and soul. I bring energy, compassion, and even a little humor to my work with clients, to create a collaborative environment that you can be comfortable and yourself in.

Everyone deserves to be the best version of themselves. I help clients identify the obstacles that are preventing them from being the best version of themselves and help them find ways to make meaningful changes to live the most fulfilling life they want to live. Life can be difficult, but I am here to help support you to make life better!

While it may be difficult for you to seek help for yourself or your family, my goal is to work together in a supportive and encouraging way to meet your needs.  With over 20 years of professional experience, and as a former classroom teacher and school counselor I have developed my practice and included therapists to focus and specialize in working with school-aged children and adolescents to overcome challenges while providing support and psycho-education for the entire family. We also specialize in women's counseling and provide counseling and therapy to children, adolescents, adults, families, and couples, and women.

You can expect me to listen to you non-judgmentally with some humble humor, while giving you useable skills and strategies to try that will be beneficial to you. I don't see my therapy approach as one size fits all, because we are all unique in our life experiences, strengths, and struggles. My role is help you find some personalized solutions to move forward in your life goals.

To me, therapy is a collaborative experience with the intent to promote real change and liberation. I place great value in the therapeutic relationship that is fostered through honesty, warmth, acceptance. Through the therapeutic relationship, I hope to establish a safe and non-judgmental environment that encourages vulnerability and change. Working together, we construct effective coping techniques, communication skills, healthy boundaries and behaviors, and improved life functioning.

I discovered my passion to make a difference in others’ lives when I began my career in Behavioral Health over 20 years ago. I am privileged to meet people and together we find the solutions to whatever life problems come into our lives. I have been consistently told by clients that they feel safe and comfortable talking about whatever brings them in and that they feel better when they leave a session. It’s my goal to provide you the ability to leave a session with more than you came with as part of the process of change and healing.

In a word, my approach to therapy is relational. I am at my best when I am centered, curious and genuinely engaged in my client's experience... exploring, nuancing and understanding their unique perspective and the struggles they are facing. I believe in the importance of finding the right "fit" between client and therapist and it is for that reason that I strive to be authentic and fully engaged in every session. My training, areas of specialization and personal style are well suited for those who might be seeking to go deeper in their understanding of themselves and their relationships.
