Therapists in Midlothian, IL
The Village of Midlothian is a small town of young professionals and families that began as a country club named for an ancient Scottish borough by Chicago businessmen in 1900. Within a few years the town was developed and incorporated in 1927. This town was built from the ground up and continues to prosper from hard working people and local businesses.
Demanding work takes a toll mentally and physically. If you suffer from mental exhaustion, are unsure where your path is taking you next, or just need someone to talk to, there are counselors serving the Midlothian area that are available to help you.

Greetings! My name is Dr. Lucy Parker-Barnes. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Illinois. I have provided clinical care for over 11 years. I find this career very personally and professionally meaningful! I am also very passionate to help my clients find meaning in their lives, healing in their struggles, and confidence in themselves! Specifically, I work from an Existential, Client-Centered Approach. One of the foundational concepts that guides my work includes that "the best counseling happens, not just in, but outside of sessions." In other words, I hope to help provide my clients with metaphorical tools and the confidence to believe in themselves to tackle their issues. I have worked with many clients including clients with depression, anxiety, legal issues, relationship problems, experiencing trauma and grief, and clients who identify in the LGBTQIA+ population. I specifically facilitated group counseling for two years for clients who identified as transgender and experienced oppression in the Chicagoland area. I have worked in telehealth counseling for about three years, as well. If you are in need of genuine support, clinical competence, and a passionate counselor, please know I am happy to help. Sincerely, Dr. Parker-Barnes
