Portia Adams, LCSW-R, LCSW

Psychotherapist
IL
Do you have questions about life's purpose, experience a low-level but constant unhappiness, or feel a desire to move forward yet remain stuck? Therapy can be your remedy. Often, people insinuate that you must be crazy to see a therapist, but that is not true. I believe it takes a little courage to seek therapy. For ordinary folks, there is an amazing amount of growth, relief, and self-confidence to be gained from therapy. I have seen this transformation in my clients' lives, and I am grateful for the opportunity to support that growth. My background includes decades of experience, expertise in relationship skills, a desire to understand, and the ability to apply psychodynamic theories as needed. I hold a PhD in Social Work from Washington University in St. Louis and have training in Group Psychotherapy through the Jewish Board-Family & Children. We would meet weekly in individual or couples' sessions and work collaboratively toward mutually agreed-upon treatment goals. There is a positive future for you. I look forward to working with you.
