Stefani Jivkova

My name is Stefani and I am a therapist, practicing for 5 years. I have a Master's degree in Professional Counseling and I have my senior counseling license (LCPC) in Illinois. My professional background includes a wide range, from working with high acuity clients in inpatient and correctional settings to lower acuity clients receiving outpatient telehealth services. I have experience with treating multiple mental health disorders and issues, as well as managing life stressors and adjustments.

My therapeutic approach is solution-focused. In my clinical experience, I have seen the best results when creating a treatment plan with clients that emphasizes their goals clearly and creating a succession plan that is detailed and accounted for. I am here to help by being a guide to discovering and defining your true wants and needs. Also, by providing you with therapeutic tools and perspectives that will aid in your treatment.

As my client, you can expect to create a clear plan for achieving the therapeutic goals that we create. You can expect to leave each session with something to process alone or a skill to incorporate in your life. All of the goals and plans we will create together and at a personalized pace. I will meet you where you are at in your treatment. I am aware the pace of treatment can vary, so we will build strong and assertive communication skills that are both honest and effective in your treatment.
