Hello, my name is Iris Bilan and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master’s degree in Professional Counseling with over nine years’ experience. I am clinically trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Solution Focused Therapy as well as EMDR Trauma Therapy. I work with adult men and women. I practice with the belief that understanding mental health wellness is critical to total physical, emotional and spiritual health, so I am available to help you achieve that goal. I prefer to assist you on phone or video sessions only. I help people who experience depression/anxiety, addiction problems, couples therapy, relationship issues, family conflict, PTSD, and problems with life stage transitions. Most times these difficulties come with additional problems and challenges so I can assist you with strategies/solutions to your immediate stressors. Recognizing mindfulness as the primary source of peace and serenity I can support you staying in the moment without fear of the future or dread over the past.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I stress the importance of developing a trusting relationship with my clients with the purpose of helping them understand the origin and nature of their issues and concerns so that we can overcome them. When we empower ourselves to make choices and changes for our own happiness, we can begin to live the life we want and not have to suffer through a life that we don’t. I practice a Solution-Focused and Systems-based approach. I believe that everything in one’s life is connected and complex. By identifying specific problem-factors, a person has the capability to decide to make changes that will result in their desired solution. I'm ready to be your catalyst for change, so let's get to work.
