BHS | Behavioral Health Systems Therapists in Frankfort, IL

Coming to counseling is a difficult decision to make. It takes strength to admit we need help. I admire my clients for seeking help and hope to create an environment where they feel empowered for coming to counseling. I enjoy working with clients from all different walks of life. I like to create a collaborative atmosphere and respect that I will learn just as much from you as you will learn from me.

I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and have extensive counseling experience working with Adolescents, Adults and Families for over 24 years. The counseling process should be a collaborative effort between the client and counselor. It is important for the client to trust the therapist for the process to be successful. I work with each person to develop a connection with them to allow us to explore life issues. My professional work has been with clients of all ages in both private and social service agency settings.

I believe that it takes courage for a person to reach out for support and that the first steps for counseling support can be difficult.
