Getting to know Jeffrey Fish

My name is Jeff, and I am a licensed clinical social worker with a Master’s in Social Work from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and a Bachelor’s degree from Andrews University. I specialize in helping individuals manage anxiety, depression, men’s issues, and chronic illness. With a deep understanding of the emotional and psychological challenges that health concerns can bring, I offer personalized support to help you navigate these difficulties. Using cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and solution-focused techniques, I provide tools to manage both immediate crises and ongoing concerns. Together, we’ll build a path toward growth, resilience, and emotional well-being.

What should a new client know about working with you?

My goal is to create a safe, non-judgmental space for clients to explore their feelings, identify their goals, and work toward building healthier, more fulfilling connections with themselves and others.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

Our initial session will be spent getting to know one another and understanding the reason that you are seeking therapy at this time. Our sessions often include goal directed conversations with an early focus on understanding your hopes for your preferred future and working together to develop your goals for treatment. Sessions include time to check in, update on progress, introduce intereventions/skills, and practice skills learned from previous sessions.
