Christian Counseling Therapists in Schaumburg, IL

I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC), I specialize in the use of cognitive-behavioral therapy, and focus on working collaboratively with clients to create lasting change in their lives. Whether it’s counseling for depression, anxiety, substance abuse, family therapy, or Christian counseling, I empower clients by using their strengths to evaluate areas of improvement.

A feeling of being in darkness, restlessness, or fear might be a sign of anxiety, depression, trauma, unresolved grief, or of a transition in your life. Those conditions may lead a person into being less functional, non productive, or struggling in making decisions. I believe that each of us possess an inner strength that is capable of bringing healing, restoration, and life. It sometimes may just be very difficult to recognize and to access this inner strength. We might long for relief, to raise our self esteem, a higher functionality, productivity, or just to be able to simply see the light at the end of tunnel.

I have a passion for helping others. I have been successfully treating Borderline Personality Disorder as well as most anxiety, depressive, and psychotic disorders. All of these disorders are treatable. Treating BPD is my specialty, having 17 years experience reducing symptoms and improving the quality of life for my clients in both individual and group settings. I have taught the group using the BPD workbook for all of those years and have seen people make tremendous growth in understanding and controlling their emotions. Many eventually graduate from the program and need no further treatment.
