Gottman Method Therapists in Glencoe, IL

I work with adults and couples who are experiencing relationship insecurity and emotional instability, depression, anxiety, grief/loss, life transitions, or trauma-related symptoms. My approach is based on the needs and strengths of each client, applying various approaches. Collaboratively, we will identify your repetitive thoughts and behaviors and find their roots. I provide genuine compassion and insight to facilitate clients’ healing and uncover their subconscious parts (blind spots) that often cause maladaptive behaviors. Clients will establish healthy behaviors and relationships and will regulate their emotions at ease.

Are you feeling disconnected or misunderstood in your relationship? Or burned out and unsatisfied in your career? Do you sometimes feel overwhelmed and exhausted by your daily responsibilities? Maybe somewhere, along the way, you got "off-track" in your life, your relationship or your career. Perhaps you would like to understand this better and make a change. You may want help managing your stress and work/life balance. If so, I can help. Call or email me to schedule a free 15 minute phone consultation.

Anxiety and stress are pervasive in our society. Whether your challenges evolve from your career, personal, or familial life, I have many techniques and strategies that can help you manifest the life you want to live. If you are ready to release fear and embrace peace, identify and remove obstacles to living your full potential, and open to making a real shift in your life - I invite you to work with me.

Making the decision to engage in therapy can be difficult and overwhelming. I invite adolescents, emerging adults, adults and couples to enter a confidential space where they are free to explore their experiences and emotions without judgement. My role is to assist clients in identifying the patterns that cause them to be stuck and help them develop strategies to improve confidence and engage with the important people in their lives more effectively.

My therapeutic approach focuses on guiding the client to discovering their personal truth while providing them with useful information and tools to help better cope with the trials and tribulations of life. Whether you are struggling with emotions, relationships, a stressful environment, or looking to work on developing yourself, you do not have to do it alone. Therapy can provide you with skills and personal insights that will transform how you see yourself, others, and the world.

If you feel that you are not functioning as well as you'd like to or are not working up to your full potential, therapy can help! I use a cognitive behavioral approach, and behavior modification to help clients achieve their goals. I work with kids as young as 3 up through adults. My innovative and unconventional approach makes therapy fun and unintimidating. I work closely with schools and doctors to provide the best treatment possible.

Hope is better when it's combined with a plan. If you're having too many fights without resolution, I can help you. I help couples figure out how to resolve stuff once and for all. Even when you're successful in most areas of life, It's hard to be happy when problems are chronically unresolved. It's even worse when the past hangs over the relationship, or you feel like room-mates. If your relationship problems are weighing down your otherwise great life, then counseling can make a big difference.

We all struggle sometimes. When life's challenges become too overwhelming, gathering the courage to reach out for professional help can be incredibly difficult. I am committed to providing you with a safe, supportive place where we can address the problems you are facing. I specialize in helping individuals and families gain clarity and resolution about distressing thoughts, emotions and behaviors. We will work together to enhance insight and develop personal strengths to help you move forward towards a more fulfilling life.

I am accepting new patients at Comprehensive Gastrointestinal Health (CGH) in Northbrook, IL, and in private practice in Missouri and Illinois via telehealth. At CGH, I practice gut-directed hypnotherapy for IBS, Esophageal disorders, and other disorders of the mind-gut axis. In private practice, I see individuals, couples, and families looking to improve their mental health and overall well-being.

If you're looking for a therapist who approaches therapy from both a practical and emotional lens, we may be a good fit! I want to help you achieve your goals and offer a space to express and make sense of your experiences. I have vast experience working with the neurodivergent population, and enjoy assisting those with ADHD and Autism as they navigate relationships, life responsibilities, and transitions. I am queer-allied and body-neutral. I work with ages 13 and up.

Therapy can seem daunting, though not quite as daunting as a lifetime of emotional discomfort. Lindsey’s approach to psychotherapy is warm and collaborative, empowering her clients to achieve happiness and an unbreakable inner well-being. Trust and confidentiality allow clients to speak freely from the depths of their mind and soul while feeling truly seen, accepted, and cared for even in their darkest moments. Through a compassionate therapeutic relationship, clients work with the therapist to discover the formation of their unique personality traits, beliefs, and patterns in relationships that contribute to present-day distress.
