North Chicago Therapists specializing in EMDR

Happy Camper Counseling; Joanne Lagattolla

My clients are seeking an intentionally inclusive and welcoming space to experience impactful therapy. They often struggle with that was then, this is now. Current feelings, thoughts and behaviors reflective of past adverse experiences. Unhelpful patterns are often repeating, resulting in the felt experience of chaos and confusion.

I like working with clients who want to heal through trauma that they have experienced. I work with clients who have C-PTSD, anxiety, depression, dissociation, emotion dysregulation issues, low self-esteem, and limited emotional expression. I like to help clients develop emotional awareness, skills, and information on what can help you move forward on symptoms you are experiencing.

Do you often feel overwhelmed by anxiety and perfectionism, feeling paralyzed by the pressure to get everything right? You may deal with a relentless inner critic that constantly makes you question your abilities and decisions, leaving you feeling like an imposter despite your accomplishments.

Amy Springer Robinson

Maybe you have been living with depression and anxiety or feeling outcasted in life for as long as you can remember. Perhaps you're an adult who was recently given or self-diagnosed as neurodivergent. You could be an individual or couple seeking out new ways to build and maintain healthy intimacy or looking to explore your varying personal and sexual identities. No matter what brings you to therapy, I firmly believe that human connection is at the center of each of our lived experiences.

Kyla Dannelke

When I first meet with people, some of my first questions I might ask are: - What made you hit the "Search therapists" button? - Do you have difficulty making decisions? - Feel stuck or lost when it comes to your direction in this busy life you've got going on? - Do you feel like things are just simply, unmanageable? I want my clients to feel at home in my office and talking to me about all of these questions, the way you feel comfortable talking to your closest friends and confidants.

Karla Rennhofer

Clients whom I’ve worked well with are often experiencing issues such as relationship problems, work stress/burnout, life transitions, low self-esteem, emotional abuse/neglect, childhood trauma/injuries, work/secondary trauma, anxiety, depression, and self-sabotaging behaviors. I've worked with creative people, such as writers and actors, to help bring their work to fruition. I also work with people in the medical/mental health/health fields, and those that work in high-tempo environments.

Amaya Herrington

You're someone who is advanced in your healing journey. As you become more conscious, whole and healed, you might find yourself struggling to find someone who can meet you on that level and keep you accountable to your potential. You notice yourself falling into difficult cycles, self-defeating patterns, and while you're ready to take responsibility for yourself, you feel the need for a guide to support you, to widen your perspective, and to co-create with you as you assert your own reality.
