Kenneth Lofland
My name is Kenneth Lofland and I have been treating individuals with various psychological and medical problems since earning my Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology over 25 years ago. I work in offices convenient to my clients in Northbrook, Lincolnshire, and Glenview.
The breadth and depth of my experiences make me uniquely qualified to effectively treat a wide range of clinical issues. I take great pride in assisting my clients in meeting their therapeutic goals. In fact, this is my personal goal to which I continue to devote my entire professional career.
I am goal directed, client oriented, and cognitive behavioral in my therapy approach to provide the most help to clients in the shortest period of time. I treat individuals, couples, and families struggling with a wide range of issues such as emotional problems, (i.e., anxiety and depression), addiction problems, and medical problems such as obesity, heart disease, substance abuse, and chronic pain. Stress management, cognitive restructuring, relaxation therapy, biofeedback, and hypnosis are some of the techniques I employ to maximally assist clients.
Much of my success comes from combining clinical practice with state of the art research. I have published dozens of studies, I served on over 50 doctoral dissertation committees, I teach and train doctoral candidates in psychology, and for over 10 years, have run pharmaceutical trials.
I served on faculty at Rush University Medical Center in the departments of Psychology and Anesthesiology, and I have worked at the University of Chicago, Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago, and other nationally known centers. I am the current president of the Biofeedback Society of Illinois, served as President of the Midwest Pain Society, and am active in several other professional societies. I have given over 150 presentations at both national and international meetings.
It would be my pleasure to assist you in reaching your goals and improving the quality of your life.
Jillian Gomez
Hello, I’m Jillian Gomez, currently pursuing my PsyD in Clinical Psychology at Roosevelt University after earning a master’s degree in the field.
My experience spans various settings including outpatient community mental health centers, juvenile detention facilities, and inpatient hospitals. I have a strong focus on helping individuals and groups across all ages, with particular interests in substance use and trauma. I’ve worked extensively with diverse clinical issues such as mood disorders, anxiety disorders, substance-use disorders, trauma-related issues, and neurodevelopmental disorders. My research explores topics like racial microaggressions, substance use, and stigma.
In therapy, I integrate psychodynamic and dialectical behavioral principles with other approaches to create an integrative, personalized treatment plan that supports psychological well-being and personal growth. My approach emphasizes creating a safe, supportive space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered.
I find great fulfillment in exploring the mind-body connection with clients and tailoring my approach to meet their individual needs. Through empathy, radical acceptance, and a holistic perspective, I’m dedicated to helping clients navigate life’s challenges and foster meaningful change.
I look forward to joining you on your journey toward healing and resilience.
