About Laurie Watkins

Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LCPC

Understanding and addressing your mental health challenges can be a daunting task. With 30 years of experience, I’m here to guide you through your emotions with compassion and expertise. By blending psychodynamic theory and cognitive behavioral techniques, we can explore your struggles together and foster the growth and healing that you deserve. Imagine a life where you can manage anxiety effectively, enjoy fulfilling relationships, and regain a sense of purpose; this is the future we can create together.

I specialize in Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD), Relationship Issues, and Anxiety Issues.

I am interested in helping people find their way along their personal journey. I enjoy working with adults, couples, and adolescents. My approach is gentle and supportive. My theory focuses on using a combination of Psychodynamic Theory, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Insight oriented therapies. I have practiced in the field for 30 years. My first profession was Recreation Therapy, and I am now a Psychodynamic Therapist. I am licensed in both Illinois and Missouri. Verified by Psychology Today
