Creating Peace of Mind is located in Swansea IL, between Belleville and O’Fallon IL area.  The practice is directed by Licensed Psychologist, Robin Dalske, PsyD, who has been practicing in this area for 15 years. We are expanding rapidly and looking for the right clinicians to join our team, as well as office staff and students who are dedicated to human services, studying in mental health fields looking for internship experiences. We are dedicated to appropriate care with respect to people of all genders, races, religions, sexual orientation, and cultural backgrounds. Acceptance is a must for all members of our staff. We emphasize collaborative care, so attendance and participation in case consultation  is required to join our team. We currently provide individual, family, and couple’s therapy to adults, and children as young as 12 years old. We provide mostly in office, but also limited video sessions to our patrons as clinically appropriate. Our coping skills group is restarting in April 2025.  Trauma, retirement, or Anger management groups may be available to co-lead in future. We are also open to providers specializing with children, and do have a clinical space equipped for play therapy. Currently we have many referrals for various presenting problems, with most common diagnosis being adjustment disorders, anxiety and depression, but there has been an increase in need for treatment of OCD, couples therapy, and comorbid medical stressors, personality disorders, Mood disorders, family/child behavioral and social concerns, and self harm and eating disorder. We provide goal-based therapy, with cognitive behavioral, behavioral, and mindfulness/DBT treatment, and CPT for trauma, specialty sleep disorders care, support for LGBT-Q? individuals working on identity development, multicultural and assessments, and can provide supervision in those areas. Clinicians with similar theoretical orientations are encouraged to apply, although other specialties will also be considered, if not counter to our theoretical approach. Clinicians must have prior in person clinical mental health experience of at least one year from previous graduate training, clinical medical work  or internships, as well as the ability to track and meet deadlines independently,  strong clinical writing skills, basic skills in differential diagnosis, and comfort with privacy and safety laws and ethics. Clinicians must have the ability to express their professional needs and ability to present difficult cases to gain supervision and support in diagnosis and treatment planning.  All newly or provisionally licensed professionals must commit to working towards higher level of licensure to practice independently within 2-3 years.  Our environment is business casual to professional attire. 

Join a passionate clinical team, and build your ideal clinical experience, make your mark.  Currently, we have three office spaces available, and shared conference room, kitchen, and office staff support, and fully furnished office facility, with comfortably furnished private offices, pay therapy, and group rooms, and room for growth. Clinicians may add their furniture or décor if they prefer. Clinicians and students will be expected to be in office at least two days a week, including weekly Clinical Case Staffing Lunch meetings on Wed or Thurs. Based upon experience level, clinicians may also be able to offer video therapy platform for support for work from home, on a limited basis, but clinicians under supervision must see patients face to face in the office between Monday to Friday from 10am to 5pm.
