Suzanne Skinner, LCSW

Psychotherapist
IL
Hello, my name is Michelle Skinner, and I am a therapist specializing in depression, anxiety, stress management, grief and bereavement, and work stress. I am passionate about helping individuals navigate life's challenges and work towards their goals in a supportive and nonjudgmental environment. I believe in the power of therapy to promote growth, healing, and positive change. My therapeutic approach is rooted in a person-centered and strengths-based perspective. I create a safe space where clients can explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences without fear of judgment. I strive to build a strong therapeutic alliance based on trust, respect, and collaboration. I incorporate cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness techniques into my practice. CBT helps clients identify and challenge negative thought patterns and behaviors, while mindfulness promotes self-awareness and emotional regulation. I tailor my approach to meet each client’s unique needs and goals, using evidence-based interventions and personalized strategies. My goal is to empower clients to gain insight, develop coping skills, and make positive changes. It would be a privilege to work with you on your journey toward improved mental health and well-being.
