About Camillia

Camillia Depke is an Illinois Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with 17 years of experience. She works with people ages 12 and older. She helps with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, coping with life changes, and attention and concentration issues such as ADHD.

She focuses on practical work during sessions. She listens to what is happening now and asks clear questions to understand what’s getting in the way. She and the client set priorities together and work on small, usable steps between appointments.

Her background includes long experience in counseling and mental health settings. That experience informs how she notices patterns in thinking, behavior, and relationships and how those patterns affect day-to-day functioning. She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood, motivation, and concentration concerns.

In sessions she pays attention to family of origin issues, attachment and abandonment concerns, codependency and communication problems. She also supports people dealing with chronic illness or pain, aging questions, grief, guilt, shame, and feelings of emptiness. The work tends to be practical and grounded rather than highly abstract.

People who come in during big life changes - career shifts, relationship changes, or health transitions - will find a focus on coping and planning. She frames therapy as a collaborative process and adapts plans to the client’s goals. If someone is unsure how to start, she asks a few straightforward questions to clarify what matters most right now.

Practical evidence-based approaches and online care

Camillia uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing unhelpful thinking and improving daily functioning. Cognitive-focused methods look at how thoughts affect mood and behavior and teach concrete skills to reframe thinking and manage anxiety or low mood. Behavioral and skills-based strategies concentrate on breaking problems into small actions - scheduling, activity planning, and attention exercises that support focus and motivation.

Finding the right way of working is part of the process. She will collaborate with the client to choose approaches that match the person’s goals, symptoms, and everyday constraints. Decisions about techniques are revisited as progress is made and needs change.

The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy schedule and reducing travel time. Confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, since the biography does not list specific formats. Online options can make it easier to keep appointments around work, school, or caregiving commitments and to check in more regularly without a long commute.
