Meghan Luse
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LCPC
Healing from trauma isn't just about talking about the past; it’s about physically and emotionally releasing it. With 13 years of clinical experience, I specialize in treating attachment trauma and unprocessed trauma using an integrated, mind-body approach. I utilize EMDR, somatic techniques, and attachment theory to help your nervous system find safety again. I also incorporate experiential methods, such as Jungian sandplay therapy, to help you process experiences that are difficult to put into words. If you are ready to move beyond simply coping and start truly healing, I provide a safe, grounded space for us to begin.

Louis Miller III, Oak Brook Counseling and Wellness
Counselor/Therapist, Attaining CMHC degree, MBK Adler University Member
I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Gestalt, Adlerian, and Solution-Focused approaches to support clients in pursuing goals that are meaningful and aligned with their values. I view therapy as a team effort and strive to show up as a clinician who works alongside you, honoring the whole person rather than focusing on isolated parts or symptoms.
My style is relaxed, genuine, honest, and collaborative, with an emphasis on building a trusting and supportive therapeutic relationship. I am always open to clients' feedback on what they want to work on in session, giving them agency. As a former Division I rugby player, I bring a strong appreciation for positive sports psychology and am especially passionate about supporting athletes in the Chicagoland area as they navigate performance pressures, identity, transitions, and overall mental wellness.

Beck Gardner
Pre-Licensed Professional, M.A.
I work alongside my clients to help them feel curious and gain understanding about the things they struggle with and themselves as people. My hope is that our collaborative effort to understand all of you will allow you to find solutions to the challenges you face in your own unique way. I know this can be a intimidating task; I try hard to help you feel supported in it, so you have the space to be curious about parts of yourself that might be hard to face alone.
