Getting to know Josey Schouweiler

Hi there, I'm Josey! I'm Josey Schouweiler, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s in Social Work from Illinois State University and a Bachelor’s from the University of Illinois Springfield. I have always had a heart for helping others, which is why I became a Social Worker. I love connecting with others and building relationships that foster care, support, and respect. We all face challenges in life, and having someone to serve as a sounding board, a confidant, or a partner through those challenges can make all the difference. **My approach** My therapeutic approach is eclectic, and my goal is to be responsive to what my client needs, which can change from session to session. Sometimes we need a listening ear. Sometimes we need new ideas and suggestions for change. I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and the core tenets of CBT—how our actions, emotions, and thoughts are connected—often surface in sessions, but the client is always in the driver's seat throughout treatment. **My focus** I connect best with clients who are honest about their goals and what they hope to accomplish in therapy. I have a heart for helping those dealing with life’s stressors, such as anxiety, depression, parenting issues, job loss, familial stress, and medical issues. **My communication style** My communication style is to listen first. I ask many questions and seek clarification to ensure I understand my clients correctly. If I make suggestions, they are just that—suggestions. My client’s right to make their own decisions and pave their own path is very important to me. While many sessions are not the time or place for jokes, my personality is jovial, and after we’ve gotten to know each other, don’t be surprised if I crack a joke or try to make you laugh.. While many sessions are not the time or place for jokes, my personality is jovial, and after we’ve gotten to know each other, don’t be surprised if I crack a joke or try to make you laugh.
