Mindfulness-Based (MBCT) Therapists in Palos Hills, IL

I earned a Master’s degree in Social Work (MSW) after first being credentialed as a Certified Alcohol and Other Drug Abuse Counselor (CADC). I have experience in individual and group counseling settings working with adolescents and adults across the lifespan, which included the LGBTQ community. I participated in specialized training in domestic violence, sexual assault, and anger management. I specialize in working with individuals who have experienced addiction, anger management, depression, anxiety, trauma, and suicidal ideation.

I work with individuals dealing with a variety of issues such as depression, trauma, anxiety, and adjusting to new life circumstances. I specialize in helping those struggling with compulsive overeating as well as those struggling to overcome traumatic events. I find that the combination of CBT, EMDR, and mindfulness techniques provide my clients with the tools needed to overcome the obstacles in their life.

As a mental health therapist, Jamie has worked with individuals that have eating disorders, substance abuse disorders, mood disorders, grief work and transitional issues. Her ethos on treatment of her clients is to provide a safe, calming environment to foster a healthy therapeutic relationship.

Hello. I am a therapist who truly values a therapeutic partnership with my clients. In a caring & supportive environment, we will identify your life challenges and find meaningful solutions. I'm committed to providing compassionate and effective evidence-based treatments for anxiety, depression, trauma, and self-esteem. I also enjoy helping clients navigate difficult life transitions, manage stress, and improve relationships. My ultimate goal is to help you build skills toward better living while moving away from unhelpful thoughts, reactions, and habits.

Deciding to start therapy and finding a therapist is a difficult process and the current demand is only complicating matters. If you feel overwhelmed, low or unmotivated, and struggling to manage your worries than I may be able to help. Chronic illness management, sleep/insomnia, life transition, or major life stressors (e.g., navigating conflicting cultures) are common treatment concerns for my clients. If these concerns are keeping you stuck, isolated, or unsatisfied with life then it is time to make changes. Whether you know exactly what you want but unsure of how to achieve it or just contemplating change you can find support!

Therapy is a time for you! Be heard, express your thoughts and feelings in a safe environment, and gain insight and understanding. I work to help clients achieve these things as well as their individual goals for treatment. Holding a dual degree in Art therapy and counseling I work with clients not only to verbally express themselves but also creatively. I am a Registered Art Therapist and Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor. I believe in meeting each client where they are at, and using the most effective treatment modality in order to help clients achieve their personal goals for treatment.

Are you feeling alone, stuck or that something in your life needs to change? Would you like to take control of your life, instead of it controlling you? I have worked with those struggling with depression, anxiety, bipolar, stress management, relationship conflict, divorce, LGBT issues, grief/loss and trauma and helped them take back control of their lives.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CADC). My areas of clinical focus include but are not limited to anxiety, mood disorders, life adjustments/transitions, grief/loss, ambiguous loss and substance use concerns. Each individual has a unique story; each conversation provides a chance to process and navigate along and through life's obstacles. Using a combination of insight, support, and humor, I foster a collaborative relationship with my clients and assist them in finding their inner voice along with their life compass and passions.

My ideal client is someone navigating transformative life stages, particularly adolescents and young adults facing the challenges of transitioning into adulthood. They may be struggling with issues related to depression, anxiety, and stress, seeking support for identity development, interpersonal and communication skills, or exploring racial identity experiences. Their goal is personal growth and empowerment, and they desire guidance to enhance their daily lives.

We all want to be healthier versions of ourselves and improve our overall wellbeing. Most of the time we tend to concentrate only on focusing on our physical health. While this is important it's not the only component of well-being we should be improving. To achieve lasting health we need to understand the importance of the body, mind and soul and how they work together to build our overall wellbeing. A healthy body keeps you well and active, a healthy mind keeps you focused and engaged, a healthy soul keeps you fulfilled and content.
