Our Therapists

Meet Caitlin

Hello! I’m Caitlin, and I’m an EMDR trained Licensed Professional Counselor in Illinois. Maybe you have found yourself in the aftermath of a toxic or abusive relationship. You’re struggling to make sense of what has happened. You can’t shake the constant feeling of butterflies in your stomach. Most nights, you are awakened by nightmares related to your trauma or other stressful life experiences. The path to healing feels daunting, but the good news is you don’t have to go it alone. 

My approach is tailored to suit each individual’s unique needs and experiences. I use techniques that promote healing from trauma, creating healthier relationships, and reducing stress and anxiety. During our work together, I will help you rebuild self-esteem that may have been damaged in a toxic relationship. I will integrate a variety of approaches including EMDR, body awareness, mindfulness, expressive arts, attachment-based therapy, internal family systems, feminist theory, CBT, CPT, and DBT. 

Facing these issues can be scary and confusing. I will provide you with a non judgemental, safe space to process and grow from your past experiences. And most importantly, I’ll empower you to discover and embrace your most authentic self. Reach out when you are ready to begin healing from within.

Meet Hannah

Hi! I’m Hannah, and I’m an EMDR Trained, Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Illinois. Maybe you're weighed down by memories you want to shake. You want to connect with a partner, but the same negative patterns keep playing out in your romantic life. A good night's sleep is rare, the tightness and stress in your shoulders is constant, but you have trouble pinning down what it stems from. And maybe you're ready to make changes now, even if you don't know exactly where to start. I'll walk with you as we collaborate to find the best way to work through your challenges. I'm confident that through our time, you'll start feeling better.

I use tools that support healing from trauma (EMDR), creating healthier relationships (Emotion Focused Therapy, Attachment-based therapy), and reducing stress and anxiety (Mindfulness, CBT). My approach to therapy is integrative; I'll pull from a variety of clinical experiences, trainings, and resources that we can use to improve your emotional health.

I believe that it doesn't have to be this way; that healing, and emotional and mental well-being are possible with the right kind of support. That’s why I meet clients from the perspective of “what has happened to lead to these challenges?”

I'm passionate about helping people move through pain, expand their self-awareness, and to feel more equipped to handle life’s challenges. I’m also able to integrate faith and spirituality into psychotherapy for clients that request it, as I believe faith and healing can be deeply connected.

It’s an honor to work with you, and I believe that healing is possible. I offer you warmth, honesty, and support in this journey, and I’ll be with you every step of the way. I know it’s hard to reach out, but don’t force yourself to keep managing this alone. Schedule a free phone consultation, and let’s start working toward your mental health today!
