About Joseph Bynum (He/Him)
Therapy does not need to be dark or mysterious. In fact, it can be invigorating and empowering. You and I will create a partnership, which focuses on healing. As a team, we will establish clear goals and immediately begin working to achieve them. My approach is to identify your personal strengths and support you in utilizing these strengths to overcome life’s challenges. I believe therapy should be a partnership between you and your Therapist, but with different roles. My role as your Therapist is to meet you on your level, and help you get to the next level. Joe graduated with a Bachelors of Science in Psychology from Valparaiso University. He completed his Masters of Arts in Counseling Psychology at Adler University. Joe is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Illinois. He has experience is a variety of therapeutic settings including outpatient, inpatient, residential treatment, and alternative schools.
