Our therapists offer anger management therapy in Champaign, IL

I’m a dual board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner with over 16 years of experience in healthcare. I’m passionate about supporting individuals and families as they navigate mental health challenges, trauma, and life transitions. I work with adults balancing family and work demands while managing anxiety, depression, or past experiences. My goal is to help each person strengthen their sense of connection, well-being, and self-awareness through compassionate, personalized care.

I earned my Master’s in Nursing from Maryville University. My approach is grounded in compassion, collaboration, and a trauma-informed perspective. I incorporate cognitive-behavioral strategies, mindfulness, and holistic techniques to meet the unique needs of each client and foster a safe space for growth and healing.

I understand that reaching out for support can feel vulnerable, but it’s also an empowering act of courage and self-care. You don’t have to navigate this journey alone, and together we can work toward balance, healing, and renewed hope. I invite you to take the next step toward the care and connection you deserve.

Hi, I'm Simone, a licensed clinical social worker passionate about helping individuals navigate life's challenges. I strive to create a supportive space where clients can show up fully as themselves without judgment. I work with children, adolescents, adults, and older adults, and I meet each client where they are while honoring their unique identities, strengths, and cultural and lived experiences. Many of the clients I work with are seeking to heal from past traumas, improve family dynamics, build healthier relationships, manage stress and anxiety, and reconnect with their sense of purpose while rebuilding their self-confidence. 

My goal is to help clients feel empowered to grow, heal, and create lasting change. I believe therapy is a collaborative process that doesn't require you to become someone different—it begins with feeling heard and respected as you reconnect. My work incorporates CBT, DBT, solution-focused brief therapy, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing. 

I believe that no matter where you are in your journey, you do not have to navigate it alone. Taking care of yourself is the most courageous act you can take. If you are ready to take the next step and begin your healing, I invite you to schedule an appointment. Together, we can work toward creating the best and healthiest version of yourself.

Hello! My name is Lorin Dunston. I currently hold my LCSW and CADC, and I'm in the process of finishing my PhD. I typically work with those struggling with depression, anxiety, eating disorders, PTSD, grief, bipolar disorder, and more. I enjoy helping individuals find a new sense of self, love themselves fully, discover new coping skills, and navigate postpartum challenges.

I enjoy working in an informal setting — think of our sessions as talking to your best friend who can never tell your secrets. We'll use modalities like CBT, DBT, grief therapy, and interpersonal therapy. I like to first focus on getting comfortable with each other, creating goals, identifying what may be hard to discuss, and moving forward with growth.

I look forward to working with each and every one of you. I prefer working with ages 10 and above, but I'm always open to a new challenge. Feel free to schedule with me and let's work things out together!
