More about Bryan

- LCPC
As a licensed therapist in Illinois, I bring over two decades of professional experience supporting individuals through complex life challenges. My approach is deeply compassionate and tailored to each client's unique journey. I specialize in addressing a wide range of emotional experiences, including depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and personal growth.
My therapeutic work focuses on helping clients navigate significant life transitions, overcome social anxiety, and develop stronger self-understanding. I'm particularly skilled at supporting individuals struggling with isolation, self-esteem challenges, and complex emotional patterns. Whether you're dealing with workplace stress, relationship difficulties, or seeking deeper personal insight, I offer a supportive and non-judgmental space for exploration and healing.
I believe in empowering clients to discover their inner strengths, develop healthier coping strategies, and create meaningful personal transformation. My practice is grounded in understanding the nuanced experiences of individuals across different life stages, with a special commitment to creating a safe, affirming therapeutic environment.

About online counseling

- Pay a low flat fee.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
