Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists in Lindenhurst, IL

My name is Zach Wittmann, and I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC). I work with adults and specialize in helping those who are dealing with high levels of stress, relationship/work/family issues, and generally feeling stuck. Many of my clients tend to be between the ages of 25-45 who may be dealing with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and life transitions.

"What is the impact of my personality on my self, my significant other, and my family/work relationships?" By answering this questions, clients/patients identify and eventually change self-defeating habits, beliefs, and patterns caused by trauma, substance abuse/addiction, and chronic stress. Signs of negative impact include anger, low mood,multiple marriages, work problems, and eventually job loss.

I enjoy helping people to feel more control over their lives. I am very curious about people’s stories. How can we edit our thoughts to feel better? Is there a different way to think about this problem? Sometimes I use humor to lighten the mood, but I will always uphold professional boundaries. In fact, I love to teach ways to set clear boundaries in our families and our workplaces. I have worked with many trauma survivors, and they describe feeling less trapped in shame spirals, with more confidence and fewer flashbacks.

Asking for help is never easy. That's why finding the right fit in a therapist is imperative. By combining a direct therapeutic style with compassion and humor, I can help you or your loved ones address your concerns and develop treatment goals together. My areas of focus include mood disorders, grief, divorce, parenting, school-related difficulties, marital discord, abuse, and treatment-resistant adolescents.

Are you struggling to adjust to current life challenges, having difficulty in relationships, or in need of healing early emotional wounds and/or trauma, parenting issues, self-esteem, and coping skills, finding the right therapist can help make the difference between surviving and thriving? Hope and healing often begins with connection, and it's my goal to provide a supportive, compassionate space where you can become open to the process of healing and work toward positive change.

Research and experience tells us that effective therapy is predicated on a truly meaningful relationship between client and therapist. I am confident that I can provide a time and space where you and/or your child will feel understood, accepted, cared for, and appropriately challenged to change. I work primarily with adolescents and young adults who are struggling with issues such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, grief and loss, divorce, separated and blended families, life transitions, sexual health and sexual identity, conflicted family relationships, attachment issues, and emotion and behavior management.

Sometimes you need someone to help you find a way through the tough times. When the stresses of getting through another day start to feel insurmountable. When life’s challenges become overwhelming. Too much work. Not enough money. Past hurts left untended. Fears and insecurities that are emotionally crippling if you don’t know how to cope.

To my core, I believe each individual deserves to be heard, respected, and validated, regardless of their history. We each have the capability for and are deserving of peace and healing despite where we are at on our individual journeys. There will be times when we might feel unstoppable and other times when life will be most humbling. We cannot change where we came from. Each person’s story is uniquely personal, painful, and beautiful. But there is strength in picking up our metaphorical pens and learning to rewrite our stories.
