I am also a State of Nevada Approved Primary and Secondary Supervisor for Marriage & Family Therapy and Clinical Professional Counselor Interns.

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.
