TriWellness
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC, LCSW, LPC, BCN, CIT, CYYT, QEEG-C, AAT-I
Our treatment integrates evidence-based therapy with neurofeedback, a non-invasive, research-supported intervention that helps train the brain toward healthier patterns of regulation and focus. Neurofeedback works by providing real-time feedback on brain activity, allowing the brain to strengthen pathways associated with sustained attention, impulse control, and emotional balance.
In therapy, we focus on practical strategies for organization, time management, emotional regulation, and self-esteem, while also addressing the frustration, shame, or anxiety that often accompany ADHD. For children and teens, we collaborate closely with parents to build supportive structures at home and school. For adults, we help translate insight into realistic systems that support work, relationships, and daily responsibilities.
Our goal is not to “fix” ADHD, but to help each individual better understand their brain, harness their strengths, and develop tools that promote confidence, resilience, and long-term success.

Tim Jenkins
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
Living with ADHD is a unique challenge that often goes undiagnosed for years. While medication is frequently the primary treatment, therapy offers essential support that pills can’t provide.
While much of a counselor's work involves building structure and teaching coping skills, the therapeutic process goes much deeper. A therapist helps you navigate the emotional side of ADHD—like managing reactive grief, harnessing hyper-focus, and healing from a past where undiagnosed symptoms may have led to setbacks or paths you're now ready to change.

Nefertiti Nowell
Therapist, Dr.
Seeking help is a powerful step to improving your quality of life. Talking to someone about whatever your concerns are is something that almost anyone can benefit from, but many people are afraid to reach out. If you are considering therapy or coaching, I applaud you, and I really do want to help you find what you need to feel POWERFUL and help you develop the tools to have peace in your life.
I enjoy working with diverse clients, and have treated patients on the inpatient as well as outpatient basis. I began providing therapy in 1996, and have worked full time in several local hospitals before deciding to work full time in outpatient private practice. Though I work with many populations, I enjoy helping individuals with issues of trauma as well as working with couples. I work with all age ranges and have helped clients with a range of diagnosis. I use a variety of techniques, including but not limited to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and EMDR. I am also a Certified Hypnotist and a trained mediator.

Joliet is a city southwest of Chicago in Will County with a complex character that blends post-industrial working-class heritage, significant suburban growth, and a disproportionate association with the correctional system—the Stateville Correctional Center and Joliet's former prison are among the most prominent landmarks, and the city has a large population connected to criminal justice employment, incarceration, and reentry. The city's population is racially diverse, with significant Black and Latino communities, and economic inequality creates meaningful variation in access to mental health care across different neighborhoods. Local hospitals and community providers offer behavioral health services, and a private therapy sector serves those with the means to access it. Common therapy concerns include anxiety, depression, trauma, family stress, and the particular challenges of reentry and the psychological weight of living in a community shaped by its proximity to mass incarceration.
