Getting to know Susan Rick

Hi there, I'm Susan! I am a licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Illinois, License number 180.013829. I hold a Master’s in Psychology from the University of Phoenix. I use a client-centered, holistic approach to therapy to create a supportive and empathetic environment where clients feel heard and understood. My therapeutic methods are tailored to meet each client's unique needs and incorporate various evidence-based practices to promote mental well-being and personal growth. I have extensive experience working with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, PTSD, ADHD/ADD, and personality disorders, as well as those involved in the legal/criminal justice system. My approach My approach to providing therapy is rooted in creating a strong therapeutic alliance with my clients. I prioritize understanding their unique experiences and working collaboratively to develop personalized treatment plans. Among the most common theoretical approaches I utilize are Mindfulness-Based Practices, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). Mindfulness-based practices are integral to my work as they help clients cultivate present-moment awareness and reduce stress. These practices involve meditation, deep breathing exercises, and mindful movement, which empower clients to develop greater self-awareness and emotional regulation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is another key approach I employ. CBT focuses on identifying and challenging negative thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to emotional distress. By working with clients to reframe their thoughts and develop healthier coping mechanisms, CBT promotes lasting positive change and improved mental health. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) combines cognitive-behavioral techniques with mindfulness strategies. It is particularly effective for clients experiencing intense emotions, suicidal ideation, or self-harm behaviors.
