Britain Willcock

Britain (he/him) is a Counselor in Training, currently pursuing his Master’s degree in Counseling at Northwestern University. He has two other Master’s degrees that have propelled a career in the fine arts and corporate sector, both focused on exploring the breadth of the human experience. 

Deep down he felt a strong calling to support people’s growth and healing in a more direct and personal way. This passion is also driven by his experience navigating mental health challenges within his own family — including bipolar disorder, anxiety, depression, OCD, and PTSD. This foundation, combined with his own therapeutic journey, have cultivated in him a profound empathy and a nuanced understanding of just how complex the journey of life can be.

Britain is committed to creating a compassionate, inclusive space for clients navigating anxiety, depression, and trauma. He sees his role not as a problem-solver, but as a collaborative partner — someone who will listen deeply, sit with you in your emotions, and help you uncover your own inner wisdom and resilience. Through open-hearted dialogue, Britain will work with you to gain clarity on the challenges you’re facing and develop personalized strategies to help you move forward.
