About William "Bill" Blundell
William "Bill" Blundell is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) practicing in Illinois who brings many years of clinical and teaching experience to his work. He first became licensed as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in 2007 and advanced to the LCPC credential in 2010 - LCPC denotes a clinical counseling license that permits independent practice in Illinois. Over his career he has focused on a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, stress, anger management, relationship and family issues, grief, trauma, and addiction, and he has spent additional time developing expertise in obsessive-compulsive disorder and related challenges.
In addition to counseling, he has served as an adjunct professor at Bradley University in Peoria, Illinois, teaching courses on substance abuse, grief and loss, and human growth and development, which helps him stay current with clinical knowledge and training methods. Since 2018 he has also worked in the field of probation, and he continues to teach and consult as a way of maintaining and sharpening his counseling skills.
Clinically he draws from a range of evidence-informed approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness-based techniques, motivational interviewing, solution-focused strategies, and trauma-focused therapy. His style is described by his own account as open-minded and laid back, with a sense of humor he considers therapeutic, and he aims to offer an unbiased, nonjudgmental space where clients can be heard and supported while working toward the changes they want to make.
He acknowledges that some treatments, such as exposure-based work for OCD, may present challenges in certain remote formats, yet he remains hopeful about helping people with those concerns when appropriate. William "Bill" Blundell is not currently accepting clients, and he does not work with international clients.
