Depression Therapists in Saint Charles, IL
My clients have reported lasting results in decreased anxiety, decreased depression, and improved self-confidence.
I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist and also offer life coaching and energy therapies. I have specialties working with adolescents and young adults, though enjoy adults at all ages. I have specialized training in the LGBTQ population and much of my passion is working with anxiety and self-confidence. Something I enjoy helping people with is coming out of definition and conclusion about who they are or what their life has to be. Instead of looking for what's wrong with you, I much prefer to ask the question, "What's right about you?" and how can you use to that to create the life you can't wait to get out of bed for every morning?

Have you been having a difficult time lately? Are you feeling anxious, sad, overwhelmed, or struggling with relationships? You are not alone. Many of my clients struggle with anxiety, depression, grief, loss, and life transitions. Some struggle with relationships. My job is to listen, help clients develop healthier coping strategies, and learn how to improve relationships. Sometimes that happens by learning or improving skills and being accountable for our actions. Sometimes we need a bit more.

Welcome to what may be a journey of significant transformation. My clients often struggle with distressing circumstances in the present moment, past events that they cannot seem to move away from, and potential futures that cause a sense of overwhelming dread. This distress affects their relationships with others and themselves, often doubting themselves and engaging in unhealthy behaviors influenced by disruptive thoughts and uncontrollable emotions. Whether they are rooted in trauma, anxiety, depression, and/or substance abuse, my clients seek resolution of their longstanding struggles and healing in the form of wholeness.

After 10 years in marketing, I pursued my calling to work with individuals, couples and families as they re-imagine their lives and relationships. Together, we address concerns like anxiety, chronic illness, grief, marital issues and family conflict. I also work with postpartum depression including traumatic births and parents of children with special needs. I know that taking a step into the unknown can be scary and overwhelming, but I believe that beginning this journey will change your life.

I enjoy working with clients who are dealing with the understandable stress, uncertainty and confusion (often anxiety and/ depression) that often accompany major life changes and transitions. These can be related to normal developmental stages and life transitions, but often occur due to unexpected disruptions - serious medical issues, job loss, relationship distress and endings, and many others. I like to serve individuals who are experiencing an existential crisis of meaning and help them find solid footing for where they are at NOW in their lives. I provide marriage and couples therapy using both EFT and the Gottman method.

The relief you seek is inside of you…let’s find it and make it stronger than the problem! You may be fed up with using/abusing substances to cope with other issues (anxiety, depression, post-trauma, etc), feeling a happier life will always be out of your reach or tired of looking in the mirror and seeing shame, guilt, or discontent. You might not even remember a time things didn’t feel this way. You’re ready to relieve yourself of the control substances seem to have over you . You’re ready to regain the confidence in yourself you once had. Most of all, you’re ready to flourish in life rather than just live (survive).
