Getting to know Monika Breidenbach
If you’re struggling with anxiety, OCD, overthinking, burnout, stress, low self-esteem, intrusive thoughts, or major life changes, you’re not alone. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or stuck in patterns they can’t seem to break. My goal is to help you better understand yourself, develop practical coping skills, and create lasting change.
I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Illinois and a Certified Neuropsychotherapy Practitioner. I specialize in anxiety, OCD, depression, burnout, trauma (C-PTSD), emotional regulation, self-esteem, relationship challenges, and life transitions. I work with children, teens, and adults.
My approach is warm, active, and collaborative. I integrate evidence-based therapies including CBT, ERP, ACT, DBT, mindfulness, and neuropsychotherapy to help you understand the connection between your thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and nervous system. Together, we’ll identify the patterns keeping you stuck and develop practical strategies to help you move forward.
I believe therapy should be more than a place to vent. While I provide support and compassion, I also help clients build real-world tools they can use outside of sessions. As a Certified Integrative Mental Health Professional, I also consider how factors like stress, sleep, nutrition, and lifestyle impact emotional well-being.
Whether you’re looking to reduce anxiety, manage OCD, heal from trauma, improve self-confidence, strengthen relationships, or navigate a life transition, therapy can help. Fluent in English and Polish, I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can gain insight, build resilience, and create meaningful change.

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.
