Find a licensed online therapist in Oconee, IL

I have been a career clinical social worker for 40 years. I have chosen to be a counselor my entire professional, adult life, because I love it! I have done this in multiple states across America, Hawaii and Canada. I am curious and driven to expand my skills and knowledge, and be a change agent for my clients. I want my skills to be fresh and relevant in a changing social landscape. To me, there no distractions when I am engaged with my clients. I am as fully attuned to my client as I can be and want nothing more than for my client's success and resolution of their problems, and the things in their life that are painful or self-defeating. I have a Bachelor's and Masters degree in Clinical Social Work. I attended universities in Colorado. I think I can best help clients who want to do the hard work, look at themselves and with my support and guidance, make real changes in their life that move them toward their authentic selves. Clients who embrace non-judgmental feedback will be comfortable with me. Clients who have repeated self-defeating behaviors will find me patient and tolerant of their struggles. Clients who understand that humor is a tool to heal will be comfortable with me. I think mental health is something that we groom. Finally, working with a motivated client and reaching those moments of confidence and calm together is a satisfaction like no other. I believe all people who are suffering have the seeds within them to solve their own problems. Sometimes we just need a partner in that journey . Sometimes, we just want to talk to someone who will listen to us!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years of experience supporting individuals through life transitions, stress, anxiety, grief, emotional overwhelm, relationship challenges, trauma-related concerns, and personal growth. My background includes hospital, behavioral health, home health, hospice, case management, and community-based care, which has shaped my ability to support people from a whole-person perspective. My therapeutic style is warm, compassionate, collaborative, and grounded. I believe therapy should feel like a safe space where you can be honest, feel heard, and begin to reconnect with yourself without judgment. I often integrate mindfulness, nervous system awareness, strengths-based support, cognitive behavioral strategies, emotional regulation tools, and reflective conversation to help clients build clarity, confidence, and healthier coping patterns. I understand that healing is not one-size-fits-all. Some sessions may focus on processing emotions, while others may focus on practical tools, boundaries, communication, self-worth, or creating a plan for moving forward. My goal is to meet you where you are and support you in building a life that feels more peaceful, intentional, and aligned. I especially enjoy working with people who are navigating burnout, major life changes, identity exploration, relationship stress, caregiving stress, grief, and the pressure of always having to “hold it together.” Together, we can create space for healing, self-understanding, and meaningful change. Taking the first step toward therapy can feel vulnerable, but you do not have to figure everything out alone. I would be honored to support you on your journey.
