WHO WE ARE
Our Roots
Here at Gruener Counseling and Consulting, we know that sometimes all it takes to change the world is a little support, a little encouragement, some healing and often using the right tool, in the right order, at the right time. Since our founding in 2012, we have been determined to make an impact, supporting the health and wellness of individuals, children and families. The core of our efforts is to bring our team’s passion and knowledge to the range of activities we’re involved in. Through all of our services we support you in not only surviving but thriving, creating more loving, more fulfilling, and more connected relationships with yourself and those you love.
SERVICES
Empowering Growth and Change

In order to ensure the safety of our clients and staff, if you are showing any signs of illness, have traveled out of Illinois, have had contact with someone who has COVID or are self-isolating from a contact with someone with suspected COVID, please use telehealth. We also ask that only one caregiver accompany minor children as our waiting area will be unavailable.
