Relationship Issues Therapists in Glen Ellyn, IL

At Dupage Counseling Associates, we provide a compassionate and non-judgmental space to allow clients to share their story. We have worked with several individuals who are struggling with a life transition, grief/loss, trauma, relationship difficulty, anxiety, or depression. The most difficult part of therapy is making that first call. We are available to answer any questions or concerns you might have before making the decision to start the therapy process.

I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and an EMDR Certified therapist and use a strengths-based approach to therapy. I believe that the healing power of an empathic relationship provides a safe space for an individual to safely explore their values and the ways in which they make meaning out of their experiences and interact with the world. It is within this exploration that individuals can begin to dislodge from stuck patterns and make choices that are in line with their values so they can live out their life in an intentional way.

Is life feeling overwhelming or heavy? Experiencing anxiety, depression, or the effects of past trauma in your life? I believe that therapy can be a place of hope and possibility, by providing a safe, and collaborative therapeutic environment to process and heal. My goal is to help clients learn to cope with life’s challenges in healthy ways, make healthy decisions, and to gain a better understanding of themselves. I believe that by taking a holistic and trauma-informed approach in therapy, the individual can be more self-aware and continue to create the life they want.

I work best with clients that desire a laid back, collaborative approach. Maybe you have goals in mind or need to process out loud to figure them out. My style is direct and casual, balanced with non-judgment and respect for your autonomy to support your authentic exploration and work towards connection, change, and healing. I have extensive experience with adolescents/young adults (ages 14-30), including queer, trans and nonbinary folks; parents; and adults navigating the general challenges of being a modern human.

Hi there, my name is Felicity Dineen. I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and I am so excited at the possibility of getting to work along side you. I have extensive experience working with adults and teens struggling with a wide array of life stressors including relationship struggles, anxiety/depression, acceptance of self, grief, trauma, parenting concerns, and perinatal issues. Together, you will overcome challenges both present and in the past to help bring out the strengths within yourself that are already in existence.

Rachel’s goal in therapy is to provide clients with a strong, stable sense of self and the confidence to live more honestly in relationship with others. As a therapist, Rachel draws heavily on her psychoanalytic training, helping clients access unconscious thoughts that may be affecting day to day life and relationships with the belief that insight itself can be liberating. Rachel’s approach extends beyond the psychoanalytic and is integrative, pulling from behavioralist models as well as family systems and attachment theory when and where appropriate. Rachel works primarily with adolescents, adults, and couples.

Every person that comes to therapy has unique reasons for showing up. Some are bothered by constant intrusive worry thoughts; others are bogged down by intense sadness. Many have experienced events that have proven the world to be unsafe, unjust, and filled with pain. While the intentions for seeking therapy might all be different, almost everyone has the same general goal: to achieve a life worth living. It is my privilege and honor to assist you in figuring out what that looks like.

We are all faced with challenges in our lives and we need help managing life’s stressors. These stressors often lead us to behave in a way that may cause even more difficulty. If you are having trouble with depression, anxiety,or relationship issues then you are not alone.

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.

I believe that therapy can be an invaluable tool for growth, and I am honored when I can be a part of someone’s journey toward healing. Whether you are new to therapy or have tried it before, my aim is to help you identify and achieve your goals while also maintaining a compassionate and flexible perspective. I realize that everyone has their own pace for engaging in therapeutic work, and I hope to build a collaborative relationship around this.

All of my vocational career has been spent caring for the family system from kids and youth to couples and parents. My passion is to support couples to become the healthiest version of themselves, help teens navigate their world that is ever evolving, and provide support to emerging adults as they grow in their independence. With a background in ministry, I love to help those who suffered from religious trauma and help them figure out their way forward.

Your uniqueness is important. I want you to be able to come to session as your authentic self. I have history of working with clients of many backgrounds as they navigate life transitions and stressors, and view counseling as a collaborative process.

Have you experienced a loss or life transition that you are struggling to cope with? Are you feeling in general that life is hard and you're not sure what to do to feel better or be happy? Is your child or teen struggling with mental health concerns? Talking to a therapist can help uncover the cause of anxiety, depression, or relationship issues with romantic partners, children, or family. It can be so cathartic just to talk to another human who sees you and your feelings for what they are, with no judgment or expectation. Together we can help you find peace and meaning in your life, and help you to live as your authentic self.

I know how difficult it can be to take those first steps in seeking out a new therapist. Life can be challenging in many ways and can be difficult navigating alone. I take great care in providing a safe and collaborative environment for my clients to explore their lives and various obstacles in a nonjudgmental and compassionate way. Some of the modalities I use include CBT, DBT, ART, IFS, Psychoanalytic, and Holistic. Building a trusting relationship and witnessing each client's journey is what I find most fulfilling about my work as a therapist.

I work with families, individuals, and students to help each person reach their ultimate potential. Whether it be a relationship issue, educational concern, or personal struggle, I believe we truly possess all the necessary power within ourselves to accomplish our goals. I help individuals explore, understand, and harness their unique strengths. Because no two individuals or families are alike, my treatment approach varies depending on presenting concern.

My experience encompasses the successful treatment of a wide range of mental health issues, including: anxiety, depression, addiction, PTSD, bipolar disorder, grief, and relationship issues including infidelity. My goal is to build a safe connection with my clients. Within our therapeutic relationship, clients are enabled to honestly assess themselves and their circumstances, charting a path to healing- a re-integration of mind, body, soul, environment/community.
