I have over 20 years of clinical experience helping individuals, couples, and families seeking help to resolve some of their problems with conflict, adjusting to life event stressors, recovering from trauma to become survivors and not victims. Furthermore, I like to help others with addictions of practically every kind to change their habits with replacement thoughts, behaviors, and actions that improve their sense of purpose in life and handling their emotions rather than avoiding them with their maladaptive behaviors. A majority of my training and experience has been on helping clients incorporate positive communication skills, conflict resolution skills, and improve upon their ability to stop negative thinking habits that tend to interfere with change.

I’m a licensed clinical social worker with many years of experience as a hospital and dialysis social worker. For much of my career I worked in dialysis, supporting patients through chronic illness, medical uncertainty, and the daily realities of life on treatment. Before that I worked on hospital units doing discharge planning and connecting people to community resources. In both settings I served as an advocate, mediator, and change agent — and I’ve always offered talk therapy alongside practical supports. I specialize in working with adults through the elderly. My clinical interests include generalized anxiety and social anxiety, relationship issues, life transitions and losses common in older adulthood, grief and bereavement, and building self-esteem. I enjoy partnering with clients who want to make real, sustainable changes in their lives. My therapeutic toolbox includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, humanistic approaches, mindfulness, and traditional talk therapy. I treat the whole person: mental health symptoms are important, but so are lifestyle, movement, breathing, and social connection. In sessions we’ll explore practical coping skills and evidence-based strategies, and I’ll also encourage healthy routines such as walking, swimming or water aerobics, yoga and stretching, breathing and mindfulness practices, soothing music (ocean or rain sounds), and nutrition and socialization — all of which support emotional healing and goal achievement. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can be heard, understood, and challenged kindly. My style is warm, collaborative, and strength-based. I’ll be your partner and coach — cheering you on, helping you build skills, and celebrating every step forward. If you’re ready to take the first step, contact me — I’ll congratulate you for making this important choice today and I’ll be with you tomorrow as we work toward your goals.

I accept that we all bump or run into rough patches in our life journey. It can be easy or difficult to match up with a person to work through these rough patches. I have been in health care for 40 years and professional counseling for 20 years. I have witnessed a great deal of suffering and spiritual and emotional growth, in others and myself. I take time to learn about the person who comes my way. I believe not every "technique" fits every person. I find using EMDR or guided imagery to reveal a person's deeper concerns fairly quickly, but I draw from other techniques and educational approaches as seems best fit. I am someone who embraces the effectiveness of 12 step programs for a possible solution to addictive compulsions but I totally accept those sorts of approaches are not for everyone .I will forward handouts I think might be helpful to you to guide a session or for later review by you. I look forward to meeting you at this time in your life journey.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs) about licensed therapists and mental health services

Does BetterHelp take insurance?

Yes, BetterHelp has joined with major insurance carriers in select states to provide in-network therapy coverage. Coverage may vary by plan, provider, and therapist availability. Insured members pay an average co-pay of around $19 per session. Average co-pay is based on current insured BetterHelp members. Explore insurance coverage in major Texas cities like ArlingtonLubbockPlanoCorpus ChristiEl PasoHoustonDallasSan AntonioFort Worth, and Austin.

How does the cost of an in-person therapist compare to BetterHelp?

The average price of an in-person therapy session in the US with most therapists is $100 to $200 per hour. These prices may be higher in Shiloh due to a higher cost of living, and a limited number of therapists taking new clients. The price also depends on the type of provider you are looking for. See the following average prices for various mental health providers without insurance:

  • With a psychiatrist: $150-$500
  • With therapists: $100-300
  • With a clinician: $100

While many psychologists in Shiloh may not take health insurance, some in the state of Illinois may work on a sliding scale, meaning they'll factor in your income and charge what you can afford per session. With a BetterHelp therapist throughout the state of Illinois you can expect significantly more affordable options, with sessions ranging from $70 to $100 per week (billed every four weeks).

Is BetterHelp right for me?

One of the potentially rewarding aspects of working with a therapist is the validation and active listening they can provide. Your friends and loved ones may also be available to listen, but you may feel that they may lack the skills to provide objective guidance. Counselors are trained to respond to various concerns, symptoms, and mental health conditions.

Therapists in your city can support you toward a healthier emotional state, regardless of your mental health, life concerns, or healing needs. While supporting individuals in developing healthier habits, another good benefit of therapy in Shiloh is having an understanding, safe space with a non-judgmental party who can support you through challenging experiences.

Should I find a Shiloh therapist or psychologist for therapy if I feel fine?

Some simply don't feel the need to see a psychologist. However, some people may avoid attending therapy due to stigma or preconceived notions of what it might entail. Although psychologists often support people with mental health conditions, you do not need a diagnosis or specific condition. You can discuss grief, relationship concerns, stress, or life changes and ask for general feedback. A Shiloh licensed clinical social worker may help you gain power over your life and emotions while you navigate day-to-day experiences.

Gaining a new perspective on yourself through various therapies might allow you to improve your self-esteem, work through relationships, and gain a better sense of your mental health goals. The success you may find with a counselor can be dependent on your process.

Is therapy worth it?

Therapy with a licensed counselor is effective and has the power to change individuals' lives. Each client is at a different stage of their emotional healing journey in life, as each human can be unique in their personality, expression, skills, and goals. An experienced clinician can target various symptoms, experiences, and personalities to help you feel your best and put you on the path to healing. Unlike advice from a friend, family, or non-professional, a mental health therapist has an understanding of various disorders like ADHD and depression with many hours of experience in treating adults in their practice. For this reason, seeing an evidence based licensed clinician in Shiloh, Illinois can be worth it. Over 41 million adults in the US attend therapy services each year, showing it's a popular option and is proven to be effective.
