Life Coaching Therapists in Glenview, IL
I work most effectively with those who may be facing a life transition (occupational, personal relationship, emotional) or a health challenge. For 10 years I was the Director of Psychosocial Oncology at Rush University Medical Center focusing on the emotional aspects of being diagnosed, undergoing treatment and post treatment for cancer. I worked both with patients and family members who were interested in learning how to cope more adaptively with the stressors in their lives. I continue to work with individuals and family members who are struggling to cope with a medical diagnosis.

If you are looking to enrich and find greater meaning in your life, Spiritual work offers the opportunity to connect with our authentic self; allowing us to embrace ourselves and live to our fullest potential.

For both therapy and coaching, I utilize my experience to integrate empirically supported practice into the work I do as a coach.
The current state of affairs has led many of us to feel a little lost, overwhelmed, frustrated, or worried. As a mother, clinician, entrepreneur and wife I understand balancing the many roles we hold can be especially daunting in the current climate and provide traditional therapy services for IL residents. In addition to traditional therapy, I also provide coaching services, and enjoy working with female identifying entrepreneurs and content creators. Many of my clients are managing high functioning anxiety or ADHD while navigating a super busy life, trying to fit all the pieces together while also engaging in self care.

ADHD reWired allowed me to serve an international community of ADHD adults doing intensive group coaching.
My ideal clients are adults navigating the complexities of being neurodivergent (ADHD, AuDHD, Autism). They seek understanding, validation, and practical strategies to better manage life. They desire a safe space to explore and affirm their identity, including their sexual orientation and relationship preferences. My clients aim to improve self-awareness, and self-esteem, and be generally more productive, effective, and fulfilled in life. With my extensive experience and empathetic approach, I offer both emotional support and practical, concrete, and sometimes out-of-the-box solutions to help thrive.

I provide insight, encouragement and solutions to difficult life challenges.
As a therapist for over twenty-five years, I've learned that people are often unaware of how their current issues are connected to experiences and feelings encountered earlier in their lives. I work with patients to help them identify and explore repeating patterns in their lives and how these patterns can be evaluated and changed to improve personal and professional outcomes. My patients have found that therapy is a valuable experience and together we make the process productive and fulfilling.

This I believe: Everyone is doing the best they can with the tools that life experience and genetics have given them.
Pursuing self knowledge takes courage. Sometimes it isn’t possible to do on one’s own. Doing so, however, leads to self- acceptance and clarity about the choices one can make to live the best life they can. Developing insight into your emotions, past experiences, and recognizing the you have choices empower you to feel more in-control of your life, capitalize on your strengths find the direction you want to take, to eventually discover and become who you want to be, as a parent, a partner, a friend, an employee, as your SELF. Every person deserves not just to survive, but to THRIVE,

Transitions from one phase of life to another or unexpected circumstances bring stress and challenges which inevitably require flexibility and change.
I think of myself as someone you can trust and collaborate with, someone who brings a fresh perspective. My priority is to be attentive, to listen and to understand what is important to you. I want you to be comfortable discussing whatever is on your mind--stress and discomfort, worry, anxiety, difficult relationships or simply overall personal growth. My goals are to minimize discomfort, promote healing and health, increase understanding of yourself and others, assist you in finding ways to create and maintain rewarding relationships and to help you build greater comfort, effectiveness and meaning into your daily living.

Are you stressed? Is your body speaking to you with hard to understand symptoms? There's a tension that remains when a task is incomplete. This tension is not only related to the projects we have yet to complete but also relates to the internal tension from not speaking our truth. Dr. Weissman is known for treating those with anxiety-based stress conditions like PTSD and OCD. His skills in mind body medicine and clinical psychology allow him to rapidly assess the depth and breath of stress in a person's life and in their life and to co-create an individualized treatment plan leading to greater self-care & personal empowerment.

Life Coaching Therapists
What can I expect from life coaching?
Clients and coaches will typically start by identifying the problem area(s) that the client hopes to address—then, the coach will help the client brainstorm potential solutions and explore concrete techniques to help the client attain their goals. Coaching is typically short-term and focused on finding solutions in the here and now, rather than exploring a client’s past. In addition to strategies aimed at the client’s specific concerns, coaches may encourage general stress management techniques such as meditation.
Can a life coach help treat anxiety?
Because the majority of life coaches are not licensed clinicians, they are not qualified to diagnose or treat anxiety. Anyone struggling with anxiety or another mental health condition should seek help from a licensed mental health practitioner. However, some coaching clients who struggle with subclinical anxiety report that working with their coach on other problems—such as career dissatisfaction or unhealthy habits—has a positive effect on their anxiety.
Can life coaching be done online?
Yes. While life coaching often happens in person, many coaches conduct sessions over the phone or via online platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Because life coaches are not subject to local licensing regulations in the same way that therapists are, they are able to see clients who live in other locations.
How long does life coaching last?
Life coaching tends to be a shorter-term process than therapy, though it does not always unfold over a specific period of time and is instead based on the coach’s or the client’s preferences. Coaching often takes place over three to 12 months but may be shorter or longer if necessary.
