Anger Management Therapists in West Chicago, IL

I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with experience providing assessment and therapy services to children, adolescents, young adults, and adults with a wide range of difficulties including ADHD, anxiety, depression, anger management, mood swings, self-injury, grief, low self-esteem, academic under achievement, and parent and child conflict and communication problems, as well as issues related with stressful life transitions and trauma. In addition to a Doctorate degree in Clinical Psychology, I have a Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education and a rich history of working with kids, teenagers, and young adults.

Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I received my MSW from the University of Northern Iowa in 2018, where I specialized in trauma processing and trauma-informed care. I am a trained EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapist and work with depression, anxiety, anger management, and addiction, among other issues. I like to use an eclectic style in my treatment modalities, and I believe there is no “one-size-fits-all” in therapy. I think people are the experts on their own experiences, so I enjoy working with individuals to tailor their mental health services to meet their needs.

I assist clients with changing the narrative of their stories. The client is the expert regarding their life; however, I guide and/or challenge each client by refocusing them back to their targeted goals.

l work with persons dealing with Depression, Anxiety, Trauma, Grief and Loss, Bipolar Disorder, Anger Management, Stress Management, Self Esteem, Relationship Communications, Co-Dependency, and Divorce. The therapeutic strategies that I utilize are evidence-based such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. Along with client input, I help you to develop coping strategies and new skills to mitigate current stressors, improve self-compassion, cultivate a sense of self-value and increase resiliency.

Growing up, mental health is not something I heard of or talked about often. Being raised Mexican for me meant that the chances of having a conversation about mental health was not likely, much less learning how to express my emotions and stress in healthy ways. The older I get, the more I learn, the more people I meet--the more I strive to help bring mental health awareness and education to not only the Latinx community but to anyone willing and ready to learn.

You are the expert in your life; Dr. Wesley and the GI Psychology team is here to support you in accomplishing your goals and resolving your problems. Rather than forcing your goals to fit into specific treatments, our clinicians aid and guide your healing through a combination of treatment models by tailoring them to what you need for success. Your experience and needs are unique; your therapy should be the same. By utilizing evidence based treatments, our clinicians can help you take back control of your thoughts and improve your understanding of how your environment might influence your behavior.

Hi! I’m a licensed therapist with over 6 years of experience helping individuals with issues such as anxiety, depression, women's issues, relationship issues, addiction, ADHD, stress, and more. I draw from modalities such as Acceptance and Commitment (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral (CBT), Dance/Movement Therapy, and the Gottman Method. If you’re feeling stuck in the same patterns that keep you from living your most meaningful life and reaching your goals, or your current strategies aren’t helping you to achieve your bigger goals, I can help.

Taking the first step toward change is hard. Whether it is change for yourself, your family, or for your child we are here to support you. Our group of therapy professionals each take their own unique approach to therapy sessions but the main goal is the same: to support individuals in living their best life possible. Each therapy professional strives to truly listen and understand the individual that they are working with in order to provide the best services possible while maintaining a safe and comfortable environment where you will feel heard and supported.

No, I don't think you are the same as anyone else. I don't think I have all the answers. I don't even know you yet. What I do know, is that I am willing to work with you to change the course of the next chapter of your life. I know that I truly appreciate the uniqueness of your life story. I know I want to help you meet YOUR goals, not the goals someone else has for you. I know that together we could create something different if you are tired of every day being the same.

Welcome! My approach to therapy combines the empathy and support of traditional talk therapy with active, research- backed tools to help you overcome life’s hurdles and transitions. My clients and I have had great success with these methods in transforming relationships, overcoming depression, conquering anxiety, and gaining mastery of personal and professional challenges. My approach is both collaborative and directive; it is structured but not rigid.

Everyone deserves to know they are worthy of care, compassion, and support. We should not and do not need to be alone in our struggles. As an attachment, trauma, and expressive therapist, I am passionate about building a strong relationship that can assist you with feeling understood, valued, and empowered in your journey to self-acceptance, self-discovery, and healing. We can work together to help alleviate your anxiety, depression, trauma symptoms, impulsive behaviors, parenting stressors, and / or any life stressors and transitions you are experiencing. I'm glad you're here and I am ready and available to help.

My name is Krysta, and I am an owner and psychotherapist at Peace in Counseling, PLLC, a virtual practice based out of Naperville, IL. My approach involves being flexible, compassionate, supportive, non-judgmental, open, and transparent in order to help clients reach their goals. I assists clients in empowering themselves by building skills, promoting insight, and gaining confidence to explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.

Inasmuch as we all face suffering in various forms throughout our lives, the good news is that there is hope for healing, and we don't have to go it alone. If you are experiencing grief, anxiety, depression, marital, relationship, and/or parenting issues, the effects of trauma, loneliness, addictive/compulsive behaviors, are struggling with a life transition or with pastoral/leadership challenges, are desiring support in your spiritual journey, or perhaps are simply unsure of where to turn, I would be grateful for the opportunity to journey with you toward the abundant life you were created for in Christ (Jn 10:10).
