About me

Hello and welcome!
My name is Bert Bibat. I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and National Certified Counselor. I have been working in the field of counseling and psychotherapy for over 25 years and continue to find my work personally rewarding. I currently maintain a private practice in DesPlaines, Illinois where I provide Individual, Couples, Family and Group therapy for those suffering with chemical and behavioral addictions, anxiety, depression, grief/loss, relationship and family issues, anger management, and parenting skills therapy/training.

Although my professional education and training have provided me with the intellectual skills and theoretical constructs which guide me in my work, I see myself as a therapist who counsels from the heart. I draw inspiration from my own life experiences and my own spiritual journey; both positive and negative. In providing a safe, supportive, and genuinely caring environment, you are free to openly express your concerns without fear of judgement. When trust is nurtured and established in the client/therapist relationship, insight and change happen. It is then that true emotional and spiritual healing can begin. I hope to gain your trust!

I look forward to hearing from you.

Bert is such a friendly, kind, and caring therapist! He listens and asks both sides of the couple questions and gives feedback if necessary.

Wow what a difference a few sessions had made already. I truly wish we had started accessing his support sooner. My husband who was initially very opposed to Therapy has remarkably engaged and shares such positive feedback. Within a few sessions we have both been able to grasp some very vital tools that have already made such a positive impact.

Despite working together for only a short period of time, I truly value Bert's kindness, calm approach and welcoming atmosphere - which truly translates through the screen as if we were talking in his office face to face.

Work with me!
