Alyssa Norbeck

Hello! I'm Alyssa Norbeck and I'm a LCSW in IL. I understand that it can feel vulnerable to begin therapy, but I'm passionate about making therapy a safe space where you feel heard and understood. I received my Master's in Social Work from USC. I've worked with different age groups presenting with a range of clinical issues in both individual and group settings, including private practice, mental health and substance use IOP, crisis management and stabilization, EAP, and in SNF/long term care.

My therapeutic style is empathetic, nonjudgemental, and individualized. I draw upon a variety of evidence-based treatment modalities (such as CBT, ACT, ERP, CPT, and EMDR) to help you reach your goals. I specialize in working with adults with anxiety, depression, PTSD/trauma, self-esteem issues, phobias, life transitions, grief, and substance misuse.

I understand that the first session is often nerve-wracking for people, especially if you have no prior experience with therapy. I strive to provide a safe space where you feel comfortable and understood. In the first session, I'll ask you some questions about the challenges you've been facing and your treatment goals so we can create an individualized plan to guide future sessions.
