Getting to know Brian Katz

Hi, I'm Brian. If you feel stuck and unable to change things, I can help you start moving again. Together, we can create a strategy to work through the event or dilemma that is stressing you out. We can restore or even surpass your previous level of productivity and satisfaction. I want to hear your story. I will listen. I will not judge. For the last 18 years, I have helped individuals, families, and couples resolve problematic situations. Their experiences often instilled insight, confidence, serenity, and hope. My holistic mission is to: ? Listen empathetically, without judgment ? Ease suffering and improve functionality ? Teach you to persist when fear and doubt are present ? Be equal partners working together to create and implement strategies to resolve, accept, and overcome the obstacles that impede your progress I want to: ? Help you find insight, meaning, and purpose ? Provide support as you proceed in the direction of your choosing ? Teach you how to live more effectively ? Create the opportunity for you to smile when it is most needed and least expected I take the time to educate you about the conditions you experience and the treatment you receive. I believe self-empowerment begins with self-understanding. I will help you understand why you do what you do and feel what you feel. I have extensive experience treating addicted individuals in residential inpatient treatment, outpatient, and aftercare facilities. I also advise and treat families struggling with parents, children, and siblings who are addicted. I hold a Master's degree in Mental Health Counseling from National Louis University, which has equipped me with the knowledge and skills to provide compassionate and effective care.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I will use my training and experience to guide you through the current difficulty and encourage you to grow from it. I may ask questions that are difficult to answer. I may suggest that try things that initially appear to be uncomfortable. The process may be challenging. I will never push you farther than you want to go. I will acknowledge your efforts toward self- development and to encourage you to continue on the quest to improve. I use a variety of different approaches and we will determine what works best for your situation. One of my goals is to help you to develop your sense of self-empowerment.

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.
