Cory Berberich, LCPC

Cory Berberich is a licensed clinician in Illinois who brings a practical and compassionate approach to therapy. He holds the LCPC credential - Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor - and has four years of professional experience, with nearly six years working in the mental health field overall. He has supported people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, trauma and abuse, coping with life changes, and difficulties with concentration and memory, including work related to attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

His background includes roles in the foster care system, an autism clinic, and private practice, giving him exposure to a wide range of emotional and behavioral concerns. Much of his clinical work has focused on adolescents and teenagers, a population he finds rewarding because they are often able to learn core therapeutic skills while still shaping their future paths. He currently works with individuals aged about 11 to 20, and he expresses particular understanding for the pressures faced by teenagers and young adults in a rapidly changing world.

Cory uses client-centered methods alongside evidence-informed approaches such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness-based techniques, and solution-focused strategies. He aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored honestly. Cory emphasizes support and empowerment, guiding clients through the early steps toward a more fulfilling and balanced life.
