Find a Therapist in Monticello, Illinois.

Psychotherapy is the practice of using psychology to address mental health issues (as opposed to physical, occupational, or speech therapy). Psychotherapy may be practiced by a variety of professionals such as psychologists, marriage and family counselors, licensed clinical social workers, and psychiatrists. I am a licensed clinical social worker specializing in a cognitive behavioral treatment of anxiety and mood disorders.

I believe that you are the expert of your lived experience. I’m not going to tell you what to feel or how to process it. I am here to guide you and listen to what you need. As your therapist, I am here to both empathize and challenge you, while still meeting you where you are what. I will actively listen to you and create a space of compassion and safety. I will also help challenge you whether that be challenging self-defeating thoughts or helping you identify actions you can take to help yourself grow.

James Hillman once said, "We've had a hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse." While there are many occasions where the validation and listening endemic to psychotherapy makes sense, there are times where we over assume that "feeling better" and "changing behavior" are the same. Grey Matters International, Inc. goes after the forgotten brain laws to behavior change that therapists miss when processing hours and hours of dialogues with people. Utilizing a cutting edge technology to facilitate the emotional process of change, we can make the therapy process way more effective, faster, and with less money spent.
