Find a licensed online therapist in Mount Carmel, IL

I am a retired clinical social worker with 35 year of counseling experience. The last ten years I worked for the Veteran's Administration and some of my therapy clients were veterans with PTSD from severe trauma. I also have worked with women who have had a history of trauma and need assistance to regain control of their lives. I have seen individuals with less serious problems who need help working through daily life issues and need support through difficult times. Because I have worked with a vulnerable group of individuals and also because I feel therapy is a collaborative effort I see myself working in a partnership with my clients to assist them in solving their problems without them feeling like a "patient" who is told what they need to do.
