Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What types of therapy do you offer?
We primarily utilize evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and mindfulness-based techniques. Our therapists tailor the therapeutic approach to best suit your specific needs and goals, whether focused on anxiety management, trauma recovery, or overall emotional wellness.
How can therapy help with anxiety?
Therapy provides a structured way to understand and manage anxiety. We help you identify triggers, challenge unhelpful thought patterns, develop coping mechanisms, and gradually confront fears in a safe environment. Through consistent work, therapy can reduce the intensity and frequency of anxiety symptoms, improve daily functioning, and enhance overall quality of life.
Is your counseling confidential?
Absolutely. Client confidentiality is the cornerstone of our practice. All information shared during sessions is kept strictly confidential, as required by the Illinois Psychology license board and ethical practice standards. Your privacy and comfort are paramount to us.
What should I expect in a first session?
The first session typically involves getting to know each other. You'll have the opportunity to discuss your concerns, goals for therapy, and background information. Your therapist will gather relevant details to understand your situation better and collaboratively determine the best way forward. It's a chance to ask questions and become comfortable with the therapeutic process.
How do I know if therapy is right for me?
Therapy can be beneficial for many people facing various life challenges. If you're experiencing persistent stress, overwhelming emotions, relationship difficulties, or are simply looking to invest in your mental health and personal growth, therapy can be a valuable resource. It takes courage to seek help, and we encourage you to reach out if you feel ready to explore these possibilities.
