Aillen Ford, LCSW

Psychotherapist
IL
Hi, I am Lynn Ford, a licensed clinical social worker with a Master’s in Social Work from Southern Illinois University, Edwardsville. I utilize a variety of evidence-based strategies to provide you with the tools you need to address your treatment goals. I believe therapy should be client-driven and goal-oriented. With over a decade of experience working with people of all ages, including children, my recent focus has been on individuals aged 18-45 dealing with anxiety, depression, adjustment disorder, grief, ADHD, and communication issues related to relationships and parenting. I strive to provide a safe, non-judgmental, and unbiased environment that empowers individuals to explore their beliefs and concerns while gaining or enhancing skills to meet their therapeutic needs.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I am a firm believer in self-care being a priority. In addition, your work outside of your weekly therapeutic session is just as important as the time spent in the session. Together we can discuss your concerns and options for symptom management and relief.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
