About Ednina
Ednina Welters is an Illinois Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with 11 years of practice. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, anger, addictions, depression, relationship issues, grief, and life transitions. Sessions focus on practical skills and clear goals rather than labels. She works in English and bases her work in Illinois.
Ednina uses a person-centered stance that treats the client as an active partner. She combines that approach with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) techniques to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills and elements of the Gottman Method appear when relationship patterns and emotion regulation are central concerns.
In sessions she helps people notice patterns that fuel anger and resentment. She uses concrete exercises - thought records, values clarification, and behavioral experiments - so clients can try new responses and see what works. The goal is calmer reactions and clearer decisions, not a quick fix.
Ednina also supports people dealing with addiction, trauma, ADHD, and chronic stress. She pays attention to how attachment, communication, and life events affect coping and relationships. Practical communication skills and problem-solving are common session topics.
Her style is collaborative and direct. She assists clients in setting achievable steps and practicing skills between meetings. To begin, readers should confirm current session options before booking and follow the platform steps to schedule a first appointment.
How her approaches translate to online work
Ednina uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and change thought patterns that fuel anger and anxiety. CBT focuses on practical tools like thought records and behavioral experiments that translate well to remote sessions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify values and take action aligned with what matters, which can reduce reactive responses and increase willingness to try new behaviors.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Ednina will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She encourages trying strategies, reviewing what helps, and adjusting the plan together as issues evolve.
