Laura Venditti, Therapist
Laura Rae Venditti, Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC), Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Illinois, and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida and Indiana. I obtained my B.A., with a concentration in psychology, from Saint Xavier University, in Chicago, where I also minored in Pastoral Ministry. I obtained my M.A. in Gerontological Counseling from Adler University, in Chicago.
I have served clients from 5 (yrs.) through 90 (yrs.) in academic, clinical, and nursing home settings. I approach therapy within a client-centered climate, using the tenets of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), through a solution-focused lens. I help clients identify obstacles and explore solutions, believing that if one wants something to change, one has to be willing to foster change. The client and I will explore barriers and remove roadblocks that have denied them their joy. I work with my clients to explore their version of a better life in a quest to make it their reality. In essence, we are on this journey together.
When I am not working, I enjoy time spent with family and especially find joy spending time with my grandchildren. One of my favorite pastimes is attending baseball games, where I am especially loyal to the Chicago White Sox. I take advantage of the benefits of exercise, as it greatly contributes to attaining balance and minimizing stress in my life. Therefore, I love the advantages of living in the city where I can walk, run, or bike, most anywhere I need to go.
