Ms. Lynn Bednarz

Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor | MA, LCPC, CADC, BCPCC, C-MHC

Hello, and Welcome!
Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, marriage, family, career concerns, or other life stressors? With God’s guidance I’ll help you find hope and healing to rediscover joy and fulfillment. With momentum, you will be encouraged to grow in a positive direction on your path toward optimal health & well-being.
Having been in private practice for almost 23 years, I provide high-quality personal and professional support in a safe, supportive, warm and comfortable environment. Since one size doesn’t fit all, I’ll collaboratively work with you on YOUR unique needs, problems and goals you may have as you aspire toward achieving them. Also, SINCE I NOW OFFER CONFIDENTIAL VIRTUAL TELEPHONE OR VIDEO COUNSELING, YOU CAN COUNSEL WITH ME IF YOU LIVE ANYWHERE IN ILLINOIS.
With a commitment toward working holistically with my clients from a foundation of Christ-centered truths, I will encourage and challenge you, offering Godly wisdom and insight in a genuine, caring and compassionate manner. I’m a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC), Certified Addictions Counselor (CADC), a Board-Certified Professional Christian Counselor (BCPCC), and a Certified Mental Health Coach (C-MHC). I’m also a Trauma/Crisis Counselor and a Pet Loss Grief Counselor. After having graduated with a Master’s Degree with Honors in Community Counseling, I continue to actively expand my knowledge and expertise, body/mind/and Spirit, in numerous fields of study, which is then incorporated into my counseling approach; thus, providing you a more well-rounded experience. It would truly be my privilege to counsel you!
As Owner of New Horizons Counseling & Coaching Center, I believe that I’m exactly where God has placed me, at this time, for a reason. I believe my Spiritual calling is to be a conduit for God’s healing love; to help people to love God, love one another, and ourselves. I do this by equipping people with knowledge and a healthier mindset, while they learn coping skills to successfully manage the stressors of life, as best as possible. I offer hope in times of doubt and difficulties, and encouragement in times of uncertainty, hardships, and pain. Counseling with God’s truth and a dedication to helping people I will help you transform today’s challenges into tomorrow’s successes!

Ephesians 5:8 “For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light!”

As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, I’ve worked in a community mental health treatment center, addictions treatment centers, a county courthouse, and also at a highly-regarded psychiatric hospital with patients who were struggling with the full range of mental health issues.
My prior work experience includes being a Hospital Corpsman in the U.S. Navy (similar to a nurse); an Executive Assistant with a vast business background in many large corporations and small companies, as well as being a published author.
Having personally struggled with numerous difficult trials throughout my own life, yet having manifested positive growth (BECAUSE of them, and NOT DESPITE them), I can often relate to you on a deeper level than I could have, otherwise, to best counsel you with the stressors you may be having.
