Therapists in Rantoul, IL

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. I have over 9 years working in the mental health field and would love to work alongside you to accomplish your goals!

In some ways, the decision you’re about to make is the hardest part of this process. Choosing the right therapist and “type of therapy” can be confusing. That’s why I’d like to explain a little about my training and my approach to make your choice a little easier. My training taught me that by knowing what to listen for, I can connect your symptoms to your past life experiences. Once we start to do that, I will help you identify the reasons those experiences were hard to resolve. When something is hard to resolve, we tend to avoid it, which is why our mind then tells us that something still feels unresolved by producing symptoms.

Did you know that over a quarter of Americans seek professional counseling? If you are here, chances are you are suffering from anxiety, depression, loss, struggling with your relationships, or adjusting to life in general, and you are not alone! Seeking help in the form of therapy is the first step toward relief, happiness, and change. My name is Ashley Holcman and I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, and I am here to help. My goal is to create a warm, comfortable, safe environment that will allow you to feel completely at ease to discuss what is troubling you.

I believe in creating a therapeutic environment that is conducive to healing / growth. It is important I develop a strong, genuine relationship with clients that allows me to deeply understand each person's own unique experiences and to accept each person as they are without judgment. I meet clients where they're at in their life processes and collaborate with them in order to help navigate and find solutions to their struggles. I can help with self harming, divorce, relationship issues, identity struggles, anxiety, depression, stress, emotion regulation, etc.

Do you find yourself facing a transition or feel a need for a transition in your life? If you find yourself struggling in your relationship, parenting approach, career, or with symptoms that seem unmanageable; then you are in the right place. I help create understanding and structure in challenging family relationships, whether it is a change in parenting style or understanding the child struggles. Transitions in relationships and career can be difficult to navigate without objective support and proper skills to analyze choices. I am able to provide client's the skills and coping to make adjust in their lives.

Do you want to feel vibrant and alive but feel off track and stuck? Do you feel that anxiety and depression control your life? Maybe you struggle to communicate with your friends or family members. Do you struggle with having low self-esteem and confidence? Perhaps you feel stuck with your current job and do not know how to move forward. What would it mean to you to finally be happy with your life and in your relationships? Jennifer M. Cross, MS, LPC believes that all people hold the keys to creating a life that they love.

As a clinical psychologist & certified yoga instructor, I am passionate about taking a holistic & tailored approach when working with clients. I am committed to helping you get out of your “analysis paralysis” & into your life. I want to help you to discover your freedom in how you relate to your mind (& body!) & share the secret your brain has been keeping from you your whole life: Your thoughts are not your boss. I aim to help not only reduce the symptoms interfering with your life, but also to help optimize your mental health/well-being to live a life aligned with how you want to be in the world.

As a counselor, I believe we all strive to live happy, healthy, successful, and independent lives, but sometimes find the stresses of our every day responsibilities to be overwhelming. This is where counseling can make a difference. Counseling has long been a proven tool in the successful management of stress. My office is a safe space to explore any number of private topics you may want to discuss such as wellness, depression, anxiety, trauma, or other areas of concern. We will meet to discuss these important issues and work collaboratively to help you reach your goals.

My clients include individual adults, couples, families, and groups. During my years in the counseling field I've worked with depression, anxiety, adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse, trauma, self-harm, addictions, dissociative disorders, men's and women's issues, codepedency, communication, infidelity, grief and loss, boundaries, divorce, parenting, marital problems, eating disorders, life transitions, adjustment difficulties, and many other issues.
