My name is Bethanie, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I welcome you and acknowledge the courageous step in considering seeking counseling. Life can feel difficult or hopeless at various seasons or crossroads of our lives. It has been a privilege to collaborate with individuals on addressing their needs and areas of personal growth and would be a privilege to walk with you on your journey.
I earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Elementary Education from University of Illinois at Chicago and earned my graduate degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Wheaton College. My clinical work has included inpatient and outpatient care settings addressing a variety of mental health concerns including Depression, Anxiety, Mood Disorders, Psychosis, Adjustment issues, Trauma, Substance/Alcohol Abuse and Grief/Bereavement.
I believe in creating an environment with collaboration, acceptance, and safety. My objective is to help each person to reach their goal utilizing effective and practical therapeutic techniques. It would be an honor to walk with you on your journey.
