In Person Therapists in Paxton, IL

Hello, I’m Whitney Perdun, a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and Board Certified Art Therapist working with individuals, families, and couples. I have eight years of experience specializing in anxiety, depression, self esteem, marital/pre-marital, and emotional disturbance issues. I use a mix of approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Rational Emotive Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Narrative Therapy, Family Systems, Grief Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Play Therapy, Art Therapy, and Structural Planning. My goal is to help you build healthy relationships and find balance, understanding, peace, and safety.

Does life feel overwhelming for you or perhaps your child at the moment? I have worked with clients of all ages for the past ten years and I also specialize in working with children and family units as a whole. I provide individual and family counseling to an array of populations, including those with anxiety, depression, ADHD, histories of physical, sexual or emotional abuse, post traumatic stress disorder, or negative coping skills. I work with my clients through a Cognitive Behavioral Approach. When working with children or adolescents I use creative approaches to therapy, including art, sand play and play therapy techniques.

Let's clarify a few things! Often people who experience anxiety, depression and panic attacks feel like they are stuck forever. They have gone through difficult life challenges or tough transitions that are taking a toll on their ability to cope as well as they would like. If you are going through one or more of these challenges, you are not alone. Seeking help through therapy can be the first step to taking back control of your life. I utilize a holistic and engaged style to achieve both comfort and trust, blended with authentic and respectful therapeutic techniques.

Many individuals and families have been through very difficult circumstances, including trauma. We often do not have a choice about the circumstances we face, but we can heal from these experiences and even turn them into opportunities for growth.

As a dedicated psychotherapist with 21 years experience, I hold a firm belief that every client deserves to be seen as an individual, beyond the confines of their mental health condition. My approach to therapy is rooted in a commitment to holistic healing, tailored to the unique needs of each person I work with. Drawing upon a blend of therapeutic modalities, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), I strive to create a customized experience that fosters personal growth and well-being.

We work from a relational and cultural lense because the people you engage with on a daily basis affect the lense through which you view your world. Those lenses can diminish your ability to cope and form new, stable, and healthy connections, continuing to utilize unhealthy means of solving your dilemmas. The goal of therapy is to guide you in using your innate abilities to develop healthier lenses to view the world and healthy coping mechanisms. Mental Health Services: Individual Therapy, Group Therapy, Life Coaching, Mindfulness Meditation, Reiki, Vibration therapy, Crystal Work, and Cannabis-assisted Therapy.

Genuine, realistic help. What meeting with me will be like? This will very much be decided by me and you together. We will chart a journey toward what “better” could look like for you and what tools and skills we can build together to get you there. Above all, I want you to feel welcomed and comfortable. I have worked hard to create a setting that feels inviting, warm, and safe.

Oftentimes, reaching out for help is a big step towards wellness and healing. Congratulations on taking that step! My name is LaDonna Miller and I am a clinical social worker in Chicago, Illinois.
