About Camillia

Camillia Depke is an Illinois LCPC (Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor) with 17 years of clinical experience. She works with people age 12 and older who are facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, ADHD, and the strain of life changes. She also notes work with issues such as abandonment, attachment concerns, family of origin struggles, forgiveness, and guilt and shame.

She prefers straightforward, collaborative sessions that focus on practical steps. Camillia helps people name their problems and try manageable strategies to reduce overwhelm. She checks in about what is and isn’t working and adjusts plans with the person rather than following a fixed script.

Her background includes long-term practice in Illinois mental health settings, giving her experience with teens and adults in transition. That experience informs how she frames goals, breaks big problems into smaller parts, and supports people through change. She pays attention to motivation and concentration challenges that can make progress feel slow.

Sessions typically focus on clear targets like reducing anxious thinking, improving mood, or managing attention and daily tasks. Camillia also addresses relational patterns that tie into feelings of guilt, shame, or emptiness. Conversations often include learning small skills, practicing new actions, and reviewing progress each time.

She asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Costs vary with location and services use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. Sessions are held in English and international clients are not accepted.

How her approaches translate to online work

Camillia uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that emphasize practical skills and clear goals. One common approach focuses on changing understandable patterns of thinking and behavior to reduce anxiety and low mood; that often means learning small skills to notice thoughts and try different responses. Another approach prioritizes structure and routines for attention and motivation problems, helping people break tasks into smaller steps and build repeatable habits.

Choosing the best approach is collaborative. The therapist will review concerns, try a method for a few sessions, and adjust based on what helps. Clients and the therapist decide together which techniques fit the person’s goals and daily life.

Confirm the current session options before booking as formats are not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a weeknight or a lunch break, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when a full visit is not needed. Different ways of meeting can also help when lower bandwidth is needed or when a session without video is more comfortable. Ask about session formats when you complete the matching questionnaire so arrangements match your needs.
