Therapists in Rockford, IL

I have worked at every level of intervention in mental health. From ongoing, maintenance counseling to helping people struggling with life and death in the community and in the hospital settings. I use person-centered counseling, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) and psychodynamic counseling modalities. Sometimes, I use them individually but mostly I use a balance of all three modalities. I enjoy helping clients gain insight into their life, their life patterns and to identify the best ways for the client to create a more functional and satisfying life.

Welcome! I’m Mandy, founder/clinician at Solstice Integrative Psychiatry. I believe that true mental wellness goes beyond symptom management—it requires looking at the whole person, including your mind, body, and unique life story. My approach blends clinical expertise with thoughtful, compassionate care to help you find clarity, emotional balance, and sustainable well-being. Whether we are building a personalized treatment plan or working together on medication management, my goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you feel genuinely heard. Outside of practice, I enjoy spending my time on the sidelines cheering on my 2 favorite soccer players, going camping, snuggling with my dog, and volunteering with Scouting America.
