Nicole Bebiak
Welcome! My name is Nicole and I am a licensed counselor in Illinois (LCPC) and Indiana (LMHC). I want to congratulate you for having the courage to take this first step. It can be difficult to realize we need assistance and asking for it means you are ready to move forward, so good for you! I am honored that you are willing to include me in your journey. My purpose is to help others find ways to manage their issues or problems and lead safe, successful lives. I have always loved helping others and have been blessed with the opportunity to provide that help in different ways and different environments. I graduated with my Master of Science in Clinical Psychology from Benedictine University in 1999. I have been practicing as a counselor since 1999 and have worked at a domestic violence center, crisis lines, community mental health agencies, and a private behavioral health hospital. I have experience assisting others manage issues such as depression, anxiety/panic attacks, unhealthy relationships, self-esteem, social skills, emotional/physical/sexual abuse and trauma, suicidal ideation, self-harm, coping skills, family conflict, grief, communication, problem-solving and those every day issues that can build up over time. My core therapeutic approach is and will always be client-centered, but I considered myself eclectic when it comes to working with a client. So, what does that mean? I believe that you must meet a person where they are and see the whole person not just their mental health or behavioral issues. I act as a guide, support, sounding board, and sometimes a devil’s advocate. I provide a safe space where problems and issues can be discussed and worked through without judgement or fear of repercussions. While many of us would love to have someone tell us exactly what to do to make our problems go away, I feel that takes away a person’s power and pride in their own emotional growth and success. I won’t give you the answers, but I will stand with you every step of the way during the highs and lows to find your own answers. Having 20+ years of experience working with different populations has allowed me to gather a lot of tools for my therapeutic toolbox. I have learned that there really isn’t a text book case, at least I have not met one yet, so I use different techniques from many therapies such as Cognitive-Behavioral (CBT), Mindfulness, Dialectic-Behavioral (DBT), Solution- Focused, Play Therapy - it’s not just for kids, Sand Tray, Psychoeducation, Crisis Intervention, and of course empathy to name a few. I am always interested in learning different ways to help people because what works for one person will not always work for another because we are all unique. I believe our differences make us special and need to be understood to help ourselves and our relationships. I look forward to working with you!

Jennifer DeVore
Are feelings of fear, unworthiness, guilt or sadness keeping you from reaching your full potential? Are the stories you tell yourself keeping you stuck in the same dysfunctional patterns again and again? Are the expectations of others in your life clashing with who you know to be your authentic self? There's a different way to be and a new life awaiting you. With someone to hold space for you, it is possible to grow in compassion for yourself. Are you ready to start challenging your inner critic so you can reach your full potential and lead the life you deserve? I’m a licensed clinical social worker in Kentucky and Indiana. My passion is helping women reclaim the parts of themselves that may have been lost as we try to balance it all. In my work, I focus on self care, mindfulness, and helping you reframe beliefs that keep us stuck in negative patterns. I am particularly interested in the intersection between trauma and ADHD, being diagnosed later in life with neurodivergence myself. When working with clients, I believe that healing is a collaborative effort that requires an honest and nonjudgmental approach. As your therapist, I assist you in clarifying your goals and honor your inherent power to heal. Rather than being drawn to one modality, I look at all individuals, the environment and situation and draw on a number of modalities. I believe the therapeutic alliance is the most important aspect to healing and encourage my clients to openly discuss their experience in therapy. I invite you to reach out to see if we're a good fit.
