About
Pneurissa Stamps, LCPC, is a licensed Illinois therapist who focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, self esteem, and depression. With seven years of clinical work, she draws on a range of evidence-informed approaches to address issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, dissociation, and post-traumatic stress while attending to mood disorders and panic. Her practice also includes support around family of origin concerns, relationship patterns like codependency, and women's issues.
Pneurissa emphasizes culturally aware, compassionate work and offers a faith-affirming environment for those who seek it. Her clinical toolkit includes Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma-Focused methods, Mindfulness, Psychodynamic perspectives, and Solution-Focused strategies. This combination allows for both skill-building and deeper exploration of patterns related to guilt, shame, forgiveness, and life purpose.
She frames therapy as a collaborative process that balances practical coping skills with opportunities for insight. Whether addressing social anxiety, self-harm risks, or difficulties with communication and intimacy, Pneurissa works to support each person’s path toward clearer self-understanding and renewed personal direction.
Remote sessions and therapeutic approach
Pneurissa offers online work that combines listening-centered and skills-oriented approaches. Client-Centered Therapy informs a collaborative stance in which the person’s perspective guides the pace and focus. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to map connections among thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and to teach concrete strategies for managing symptoms such as anxiety and panic.
For concerns rooted in past injury or abuse, Trauma-Focused Therapy provides a framework for addressing traumatic memories and their present-day impact while incorporating practices that support emotional regulation. Mindfulness techniques are woven in to build moment-to-moment awareness and reduce reactivity. Together these approaches aim to match people who want both practical tools and opportunities for deeper exploration.
Remote options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, and Pneurissa adapts communication modes to the needs and goals discussed in early sessions.How long has Pneurissa been practicing?
