More about Constance
- 31 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I am a social worker licensed in Illinois with over 30 years of experience in working with culturally diverse men and women to provide bio-psychosocial supportive brief counseling .
I have worked with clients experiencing a wide range of concerns including but not limited to grief and bereavement, domestic violence, health and disability adjustment, relationship issues, and career and workplace challenges, I have also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse. My therapy style begins with valuing your story and the power of your words. I am most concerned about your social, psychological and emotional well-being and will focus our time on mutual problem solving to identify opportunities to enhance your coping capacities. As your catalyst for change, our partnership will remain grounded in respect, trust, and compassion.
My approach combines system theory and cognitive-behavioral therapy. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Feeling a greater sense and acceptance of who you are, where you belong. Our sessions will focus on your learning and practicing techniques such as relaxation, coping, resilience, stress management and assertiveness using a goal-oriented approach. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.
Welcoming the opportunity to support you!

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
