Trauma Therapy in Gurnee, IL

You Don't Have to Keep Carrying It Alone

Trauma has a way of staying with us long after the event is over — showing up in our relationships, our sleep, our sense of safety, and the way we see ourselves. Whether you experienced something as a child or an adult, trauma can quietly shape every part of your life.

At Professional Family Solutions, we provide trauma-informed therapy for children, teens, adults, and families in Gurnee, IL. Our therapists understand that trauma looks different for every person — and that healing requires more than just talking about what happened.

How We Treat Trauma

We use a range of evidence-based and creative approaches tailored to each person's needs:

Trauma-Informed Care Everything we do is grounded in an understanding of how trauma affects the mind and body. We work at your pace, in a space where you are always in control.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) CBT helps identify and shift the thought patterns that trauma can create — including shame, self-blame, hypervigilance, and avoidance.

Art Therapy For clients who struggle to put their experiences into words, art therapy offers a powerful alternative path to processing and healing. Our therapists are trained to use creative expression as a genuine clinical tool, not just an activity.

Adoption and Attachment-Focused Therapy We have specialized experience working with adoptees and foster children who carry early trauma related to loss, separation, and attachment disruption. We work with both children and their families to build trust, security, and lasting connection.

  • Children and adolescents
