>	Catherine G. Gurtler, M.A. Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) Catherine provides an integrative approach for anxiety, depression, self-image & troubled relationships. Offers neurofeedback to eliminate many chronic conditions.

Overview

Catherine is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in private practice. She earned her MA in Counseling Psychology from the Adler School of Professional Psychology with an undergraduate degree in Psychology from Governor's State University.

Catherine is well known for her compassion and insight. She assists her clients by helping them recognize repetitive dysfunctional patterns. In a respectful therapeutic alliance, she coaches clients in choosing individual goals. Clients are guided toward identifying and reinforcing their core strengths. These goals are achieved through insight, education, and the development of personalized strategies. She is prepared to work with clients requesting counseling from a spiritual perspective.

Certified in E.M.D.R. Therapy for the treatment of P.T.S.D. (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) and early childhood trauma, she provides an avenue of relief from debilitating emotional symptoms.

Catherine has extensive training in Neurofeedback, a safe non-invasive therapy that trains the brain to concentrate and self-regulate naturally without medication. Allowing the central nervous system to self-regulate helps to reduce or eliminate the underlying causes of many chronic conditions: ADD/ADHD, Anxiety, Bi-Polar Disorder, Chronic Pain, Depression, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Fibromyalgia, Migraine Headaches, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Insomnia, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, and Performance Anxiety. Neurofeedback is successfully used with both adults and children. See the website for more information.

Personal Statement

I have a strong commitment to assist people to grow in understanding themselves and the people around them. As a therapist, my concern is to build a trusting, confidential relationship with my clients in which they can experience relief from disturbing symptoms. I respectfully work within individual belief systems and assist clients in understanding their unique way of functioning in the world. Together, we examine strengths as well as weaknesses.
