Why Choose Calm Mind Counseling Center?

Calm Mind Counseling Center was founded in 2019 with the mission of helping people find hope, resolution and meaningful change. We are a leading resource in the Western Suburbs for trauma-informed care and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR).

​

Trauma-informed means that we look at the full lifespan of a client and contextualize all of the events that have impacted their current struggles.  A trauma-informed approach helps clients leave therapy feeling empowered and hopeful, by addressing a specific trauma or examining how the “little things” they’ve experienced add up to a a negative view of themselves or the world around them.

​

Trauma can look like many different things and impact people in vastly different way.  Below are some of the common symptoms of trauma:

• Low self-esteem or feeling at war with yourself

• Feeling isolated, lonely or difficulty connecting to other

• Feelings of shame, guilt, or intense worry

• Feeling anxious about specific situations or places

• Constantly feeling like something bad is going to happen

• Nightmares or flashbacks that relive the terrible event

• Difficulty functioning in daily life

​
