Therapists in Lyons, IL
Life can seem like a wilderness with no recognizable clues telling you where you are or where you’re going. The situations in your life seem confusing and troubling when you’re filled with sadness, fear, and dread. You don’t want to give up but wandering around endlessly searching for answers to your problems isn’t helpful.
The Hofmann Tower Museum, a castle-like building, is Lyons’ most impressive landmark. When the landmarks in your life seem hard to recognize and difficult to reach, you naturally look for a knowledgeable guide. Talk to a counselor in the Lyons area for help finding your way.

26 years offering treatment
I am a licensed clinical social worker in Illinois with specialization in addictions (substance use and sexual disorders), trauma and emotional conditions, LGBTQ concerns, depression, anxiety, relationship and parenting concerns, vocational challenges, legal issues, and serious mental health illnesses. Since I started in the field in 1998, I have always known I would be a counselor. Growing up, it came naturally to me to be compassionate, empathetic, and to listen with a non-judgmental stance. Over the past 20 years, I have helped hundreds of individuals improve their lifestyles through my work and passion for helping. What I love the most about working as a therapist is being apart of those quantum change insights; the ones that involve a shift in perception and the realization of a new life. It can be as simple as looking at ones self in a positive light, realizing they are capable of change. Recovery is about self-discovery, rediscovering the parts that you believe have become disconnected or lost. Authentic recovery allows you to achieve peace and satisfaction with your life. This starts with positive connections. I am here to guide you in the path of healing the root cause of your stress. With positive and loving connection, I will honor your path towards fulfillment. Currently as of 5/14/2020, I am no longer taking new clients due to a full schedule.

As a military spouse of 23 years, I’ve had the unique opportunity to work in various therapy settings with both military and civilian communities.
