Hi and Welcome! I’m Lisa, and I’m so glad you’ve taken this next step on your wellness journey. Reaching out for support is often the hardest part, and I’m honored you’re here. My client's are often navigating things like depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, and just big life stressors that leave us feeling lost and overwhelmed. I am also passionate about working with the perinatal population—whether you’re in the family planning stages, currently pregnant, or in the postpartum phase where you're surviving off of chaos and coffee (me too). Whatever season of life you're in, you don't have to endure it alone.

Are you tired of carrying things that are just too heavy for you to carry alone anymore? As a licensed professional counselor, I can help you carry that load. In my 12 years as a counselor, I've worked with families, children, adolescents, and adults of all ages in homes, outpatient offices, and online. I have a Ph.D. in counselor education and supervision, and have taught in graduate counseling programs, but my first love is working directly with individuals who are dealing with the effects of trauma, grief, burnout, or anxiety. I am a Christian and would be happy to incorporate your spiritual beliefs, whether Christian or not, into our work together, if desired.

College and early adulthood can feel exciting and overwhelming at the same time. I work with college students and young adults who are navigating academic pressure, shifting friendships, family expectations, dating, and big life decisions. You might look like you’re managing it all, but inside you feel anxious, unsure of yourself, or constantly comparing where you are to everyone else. Whether you’re struggling with burnout, identity questions, or just trying to figure out your next step, therapy can be a place to slow down and actually breathe.

Find the right couples therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your relationship — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Aurora, IL

Finding couples therapists in Aurora starts with knowing what you and your partner want to work on together. Couples counseling in Aurora may support communication patterns, conflict, trust after infidelity, major life changes, parenting disagreements, or intimacy concerns. Not all therapists have specific training in couples work, so look for licensed marriage and family therapists or therapists who list couples-focused approaches, such as the Gottman Method or emotion-focused therapy, in their bios.

In a mid-sized city like Aurora, the right match often depends on both clinical fit and logistics. You may want a therapist in Aurora who offers in-person sessions near home or work, while virtual appointments can make it easier to coordinate two schedules. As you compare options for couples therapy in Aurora, review availability, session structure, and whether the therapist offers a brief initial consultation. Reading bios can also show how each therapist works with partners, handles shared goals, and structures sessions.

Couples therapy in Aurora can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce out-of-pocket costs and understand your estimated session price before you book. Headway helps you compare therapists who are accepting new patients, review insurance information, read detailed profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
