Meet Us – Dylan

Dylan Anderson
Licensed Professional Counselor
Bloomingdale/Bolingbrook
As a dedicated mental health therapist, I am passionate about guiding individuals on their journey to self-discovery and empowerment. My approach is rooted in the belief that each person has the innate ability to overcome challenges and achieve their full potential. My goal is to empower clients to embrace positive change, cultivate resilience, and foster a deep sense of self-awareness. Together, we work collaboratively to navigate life’s complexities, build meaningful connections, and embark on a journey toward personal growth and fulfillment.
I am committed to helping children, adolescents, and adults navigate the challenges of anxiety, depression, building resilience, self-acceptance and developing a positive self-image.
Why I Chose to Be a Therapist?
I chose to become a therapist because I understand the importance of taking care of your mental health and in my culture therapy is taboo. As a child, therapy assisted me in changing my behavior and helped me recognize I was bored and needed to be challenged. A goal of mine is to help remove the stigma behind therapy and help unlock the potential in others.
During my 4th and 5th grade years of school, my teacher saw the potential in me and motivated me to maximize my potential. I believe the person I am today is greatly influenced by my childhood teacher. I became a therapist to do the same for others. I think no one is broken, everyone has potential that has not been unlocked and it is my pleasure to help unlock the hidden talents, skills, and personality.
FAQ
1. How do I know which therapist is right for me?
If you’re unsure who would be the best fit, our team can help guide you.
2. How are your therapists selected?
When matching you with a therapist, we consider your needs and goals as well as the therapist’s experience and availability.
3. Will I have a real person helping me choose a therapist?
You don’t have to search through dozens of therapist profiles and try to determine on your own who might be the right fit.
4. Can I request a specific therapist?
If that therapist isn’t available or isn’t the best clinical fit, our team can help identify another therapist who may be appropriate.
5. What if my therapist isn’t the right fit for me?
If you don’t feel that your therapist is the right fit, we encourage you to communicate with us. Because we are a group practice with therapists who have different specialties and approaches, we may be able to help you find another therapist within our practice who better matches your needs. You should never feel that you have to stay with a therapist simply because you started with them.
6. Can I see another therapist at the practice if my needs change?
One benefit of a group practice is that you have access to therapists with different areas of expertise. Your needs may change over time, and your care can change with them.
7. What happens if my therapist leaves the practice?
As a group practice, we may be able to help you transition to another therapist within our practice who is appropriate for your needs.
8. Do I have to know exactly what I need before contacting you?
No.
You don’t need to know your diagnosis, treatment plan, or even which type of therapist you need before reaching out.
That’s part of what our team is here to help with.
Your mental health starts with you. Let us help you on your journey.
