Hoarding Therapists in Maryville, IL

My ideal client is suffering from anxiety or depression. They are looking for a change and seek therapy to eliminate their anxiety or mood disorder. Their number 1 problem is coping with anxiety or depression and its interference with normal life. They desire to work in counseling and learn behaviors to change the way they think and feel. They spent too much time feeling the negative effects of their problem and are ready to change. They will discover they don't have to be controlled by negative emotions, but instead can process them and decide how to respond in a more positive manner.

Hi, I'm Adam Pearson. I have a Master's in Clinical Psychology and was trained by a Psychiatrist for two years. I use a variety of techniques and tools. Therapy is typically 8-16 weeks; around eight weeks, your symptoms should go from Severe to Moderate, and 16-18 weeks, moderate to mild. I practice from a faith-based perspective, but all are welcome. You can text, call, or email; I typically see a new patient within 48-72 hours. I had PTSD, Depression, and OCD and am now free. Now it's your turn! This is where you learn to love and like yourself, maybe for the first time. I have helped 1000s. This is your flying lesson!

Do you struggle with anxiety, depression, or a self-defeating behavior? People seek therapy for different reasons. You may be reading this because you are struggling with depression, anxiety, loss, trauma, relationship problems, etc. Our lives are constantly evolving and changing; sometimes those changes can be challenging and even overwhelming. I offer a highly personalized approach to resolve some of the challenges you are facing. I work with individuals from a strength based perspective. During therapy sessions, we will work together to identify your strengths and explore areas for growth and change.

Trying to find the counselor that best suits you can be frightening. It takes courage to try to seek help. Thank you for being here. Levels of resistance and vulnerability vary, but they are both important to understand for each unique individual. Whatever you bring to therapy, that is where I will meet you. I am here for who you are, and to meet you where you are at. This perspective speaks to my eclectic role as a therapist. I analyze a client and use the research and knowledge I have to apply the best theory or approach to help my client. I focus on what the client's goals are and how to help them reach them in healthy ways.

Do you feel stuck in your past trauma or overanalyze your feelings? Whether you have anxiety, depression, or PTSD, you don’t have to work through it alone. Through therapy, we can collaborate and achieve goals that are important to you. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in IL. I worked as a substance abuse counselor during my internship, and since then, I have been working with survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault. My goal is to provide you with the tools and resources to navigate and heal through life’s challenges.

My goal as a counselor is to help as many people as possible work through difficult issues and have the tools to succeed on their own-without needing therapy. I have experience working with adults and teens who are rebuilding their lives or just want insight into a particular problem. Some of the clients I have worked with include those who have experienced homelessness, divorce, addictions, incarceration, expulsion from school, depression, grief/loss, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting issues, sexual abuse, and sexual problems.

My mission is to provide clients of all ages with a safe, nonjudgmental space where they can truly feel heard, respected, & empowered. I'm a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, Mental Health Counselor, Certified EMDR Therapist, & Sandtray Therapist. I treat a variety of issues. I believe clients want a therapist who is genuine, compassionate, trustworthy, smart, & funny. They want a therapist who cares about them, wants to hear their story, supports them through the "hard" stuff, teaches them tools to solve problems on their own, celebrates their wins, & helps with accountablity when needed. If this sounds like you, let's talk.

I help adults overcome issues related to anxiety disorders, OCD, specific phobias, hoarding, BFRBs, disordered eating, addictions, depression, personality disorders, PTSD and traumatic stress. As a certified EMDR therapist, with extensive training in cognitive behavioral therapies, I work collaboratively with clients to increase insight and understanding of thoughts, foster skills to better manage urges and unwanted behaviors, cultivate acceptance of feelings and emotions, connect to the present moment of their day-to-day lives, and commit to actions that take them closer to the things in life that give them a sense of purpose.

The decision to seek out a therapist is an important first step towards positively addressing conflicts, managing distress, and learning to cope with negative or overwhelming feelings. Our team of therapists bring years of therapy experience. We work with children, adolescents, adults, and families who are Deaf or come from Deaf families (includes hearing family/friends who sign). We provide a supportive, nurturing environment. We use a multimodal approach incorporating mind-body therapies with evidence-based treatments.

Oftentimes life can get tough. It can affect you, your marriage/relationship, your family, your children, your ability to parent, your self-worth, and more than anything, your ability to overcome any obstacles you are facing. I believe within each of us we have the strength to overcome the impossible. Out of pain comes something stronger, better, and the ability to thrive. I believe you already have the answers you seek and you contain the ability to change the worst circumstances. Sometimes our paths are hidden by everything weighing us down, which can make us feel overwhelmed. This can prevent us from seeing a way out...

Unsure if your child's behavior is age appropriate? Is your adolescent having difficulties in academics or social connections? Are you struggling with adjusting to life changes or reflecting on past experiences that cause you to feel uneasy? Not sure how to work out differences between you and your partner or within your family? I am here to help your child play out any fears, worries, and past traumas, help your adolescent feel empowered, find solutions, and discover self identity, help adults navigate life transitions, and help couples/families explore conflict. Most of all, I focus on your needs to cultivate trust and safety.

As a person-centered therapist with over fifteen years of experience in working with clients of all ages, I will meet you where you are at mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. I will help you embark on a journey to greater peace, happiness, and self-satisfaction. Whether you're having difficulty coping with life's many stressors, are feeling down, lacking motivation, or struggling to define and set meaningful goals for your life, I'm here to provide you with empathic support and guidance as you face life's many challenges.

You deserve to live a life that you love. There are many people who see therapy as something intrusive, unnecessary, or believe they will be judged. As a therapist, I believe that the connection built between the patient and therapist is the foundation that can lead you to the life that you want to live. My goal is to help you achieve your goals and see you become happier with the life you are currently living. Yes, sometimes therapy can bring up painful emotions, memories or events, but this pain can lead to growth and a better life. Life is too short to let the traumas of the past keep you from the life you were meant to live!

Sometimes in life we struggle with understanding why or how we ended up where we have. I believe that most of us attempt to manage the best we can given our current circumstances, struggles and challenges. Even then life can still seem insurmountable. I want you to know that change is possible, but doing it alone may feel like an added burden. I will work with you collaboratively to navigate the challenges at hand. My goal is to provide an unbiased, welcoming, and therapeutic environment.
