Skip to content You don’t need to know anyone’s title before you call. You need someone who’s spent years training for exactly what you’re dealing with. We match you to that person, not to whoever happens to be free.
Every clinician here is licensed in Illinois, and you can look them up before you book. Here’s who you’d be working with.
Amanda works with children, adolescents, adults, and older clients, drawing on evidence-based and holistic methods together. She looks at mental health through psychological, social, and neurological angles, which helps her work through complex, layered cases. She builds a calm, steady space. That’s where the real work happens.
A Treatment Plan Built Around You
Amanda starts from a cognitive behavioral foundation: your thoughts shape your emotions and your behavior. From there, she draws on DBT, clinical hypnosis, behavioral analysis, and EMDR, choosing whichever combination fits what you’re dealing with. No client gets the same plan twice.

Charles spent a career with people in crisis before he became a therapist. He worked as a police officer in Woodstock and holds certification as a juvenile officer and a crisis intervention team member. He now sees children and adults for anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship work, and he handles the practice’s psychological and neuropsychological testing.
When the Question Is What’s Going On
Testing answers what talking alone can’t. Charles assesses for ADHD, oppositional defiant disorder, depression, anxiety, dyslexia, achievement skills, autism, and career direction. The process runs in three steps: an introductory consultation, the assessment itself, and a feedback session where he walks you through what it found.
Mediation
Charles trained as a mediator through Northwestern University’s School of Professional Studies. Mediation is a voluntary process for two parties to reach an agreement without the cost of arbitration or litigation, and without giving up confidentiality. His background in policing and law gives him a practical basis for working through a dispute without taking a side.
