Lyle’s Bio
I have been working in the mental health field for close to 10 years now, but have been providing direct person care since I was in high school. I have provided 1:1 therapy to children, adolescents, adults, and geriatrics that range from a wide array of persons and populations. I have worked with LGBTQ individuals, HIV+ individuals, individuals with psychiatric disorders, children in Kindergarten through 12th grade, college students, individuals with developmental disorders, and geriatric individuals in need of total care. I have worked in outpatient mental health agencies, psychiatric hospitals, daycare centers, and college campuses. I obtained my Master's degree in Counseling Psychology and Bachelor's degree in Rehabilitative Sciences. I am CPR certified and certified in crisis prevention interventions for individuals requiring brief crisis therapy.
I have interest in providing care, support, companionship, and enjoyment to individuals in the Chicago area. I am looking to make someone's day a little brighter by providing whatever type of care or service necessary.
