Have you ever had one of those life lessons that keeps repeating?
Like the old Indigo Girls song Gailielo says, “How long ‘till I get it right?”
You know the lesson I’m talking about.
Maybe that lesson keeps you stuck in dead end relationships. Maybe it causes you to live life in anxiety and fear, so you’re continually exhausted. Maybe it’s what causes you to settle for less than what you really want or deserve. Or maybe it holds you back because of doubt or worry, so you end up watching life pass you by.
Yeah, that one.
Maybe, you’ve invested A LOT of time and money in dealing with that one lesson. Therapy, coaching, personal development programs, YouTube videos – you get the idea.
So why are you still dealing with that one lesson? And, more importantly, is there a way to finally move on and live the life you desire to live? I have dealt with these kinds of lessons myself, and I am also trained to help others.

Hi, I’m Gary Chatham, I have a Master’s Degree in Counseling. Maybe you have been to counselors before who just listen to you, and don’t say much. I am NOT that kind! I work with my clients to not just DEAL with issues, but work THROUGH them, and transform their lives.
I currently have a private practice, with offices in Peoria and Chillicothe, Illinois. I also help clients from anywhere through secure video appointments.
I have previously worked at a community counseling agency, and have taught psychology at two community colleges. In addition, I also have experience in a university counseling center, and a dual diagnosis inpatient unit – addictions and personality disorders.
I am passionate about helping my clients gain clarity, and create healing in their lives. I create a safe space for my clients to share, and work through issues with me. These issues could involve relationships, trauma, grief, or the emotional effects of chronic illness.
I believe in treating the whole person, and will work with you though a body/mind/spirit approach. Often emotional stress can cause physical symptoms, and vice versa. By treating the whole person, (including medical referrals, when needed), you can reach a greater degree of healing and peace. I also help others find their spiritual path, and integrate their spirituality into their healing.
By helping you release patterns that do not serve you, I can assist you in creating more inner freedom. Then, this inner healing allows you to start creating your life the way you desire it.
Working with the LGBTQ+ community is also important to me. You will find a safe space to talk and receive help if you are lesbian, gay, bisexual, queer, transsexual, or transgender.
I am a member of the American Counseling Association, am a founding member of the International Association of Coaching, and am a member of the Reiki Healing Association.
