Louis Miller III, Oak Brook Counseling and Wellness
Counselor/Therapist, Attaining CMHC degree, MBK Adler University Member
As a former Division I rugby player, I support athletes navigating performance pressure, identity, confidence, and transitions in and out of sport. My approach emphasizes positive sports psychology, mental resilience, and sustainable wellness both on and off the field. Dealing with the mental aspect of injuries is another battle that is just as much mental as it is physical for clients, which I have a great deal of understanding on and a lot of support to offer athletes seeking services.

Marc Feinberg
Pastoral Counselor/Therapist, CBC
Great athletes train their bodies — champions train their minds. Sports psychology unlocks the mental edge that separates talent from greatness. Pressure, fear, and self-doubt can sabotage performance, but mental mastery transforms them into fuel for focus and confidence. Through visualization, emotional control, and belief training, athletes learn to turn setbacks into comebacks and nerves into power. The goal isn’t just to win — it’s to perform with freedom, clarity, and joy. When your mind and heart align with your purpose, your potential becomes unstoppable. Every victory begins in the mind — and greatness follows where belief leads.

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.
