The thought of therapy can feel overwhelming, it is my mission to make clients feel safe to build a trusting relationship that fosters openness and honesty.

I’m Courtney (she/her/hers), a Licensed Professional Counselor at Ida Lillie Psychotherapy and Wellness. I am passionate about working with adolescents, teens and adults addressing trauma, relationship issues, anxiety, self-esteem, and life changes. My experience also includes helping parent/child relationships, eating disorders, and those who have been impacted by domestic violence or sexual abuse.

I use compassion, humor, and direct communication to address my clients concerns and meet their needs. I view the therapeutic relationship as an equal collaboration between therapist and client working toward goals, for you to feel at your best. I earned my Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Roosevelt University and my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from University of Illinois.

Specialties: mood and anxiety disorders, trauma, eating disorders
