Therapist Overview
I am a Chicago native and the co-founder of Henderson Counseling Services. I specialize in clients who struggle with the following: 1. Military combat and other military induced traumas 2. First responders 3. Sexual, physical, emotional abuse 4. Anxiety, PTSD, OCD, and depression. Working with clients who are motivated for change is my passion. Working from the core of trauma is what I believe to be the most effective method for long term healing. Together, we will identify the root issue by going through what occurred, while acknowledging your thoughts/feelings attached to this event. Next, we will reframe these memories from your perspective as an adult and make sense of them to induce healing. Finding the right therapist is a crucial part of getting the most of therapy. The right match will improve your overall outlook of counseling and increase the likelihood of your emotional progress. One way to do this is to make sure your therapist specializes in the issue/s you want to work on, as this will enhance the path to healing.
