George Brassea, LCPC, practices in Illinois and brings nine years of clinical experience to his work. He supports people confronting stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, LGBT issues, self esteem challenges, intimacy-related issues, anger, career questions, and coaching. Additional areas of focus listed in his profile include abandonment and attachment issues, BDSM and alternative sex culture, blended family complications, body image, caregiver stress, chronic pain and illness, co-morbidity, codependency, commitment and control difficulties, communication problems, divorce and separation, feelings of emptiness, first responder issues, forgiveness, guilt and shame, and impulsivity.

His practice emphasizes thoughtful questioning and exploration of family roots and behavioral systems.

He integrates Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Existential and Jungian perspectives, and Motivational Interviewing into clinical work. He also holds an MBA and draws on that training to consider both psychological and practical dimensions of concerns.
