Mike Malicki, LPC
Hello! My name is Matthew Malicki and I am thrilled to share a little about myself and my counseling approach with you. I am the youngest with three older sisters and hail from Bourbonnais, IL. After high school I spent 6 years in ministry formation to become a Catholic priest before discerning that this was not the path I wanted to take and decided I wanted to have a wife and family. So, I left seminary and began working as a youth minster for about three years where I obtained a masters in theology from the Augustine Institute. I then began my studies in psychology and obtained a masters in psychology from Divine Mercy University as well as a masters in clinical psychology from Benedictine University. Before coming to Edit Your Life I previously worked for Catholic Charities in Kankakee as well as in Downers Grove. I have a cat, several nieces and nephews, and a strong desire to help people heal and grow. I tend to work with a psychodynamic perspective though I also pull from the other various forms of therapy which I’ve learned in my training such as CBT and DBT. Please feel free to schedule a consultation session with me if you’d like to discuss therapy moving forward or schedule your first appointment. Either way works! Gratefully, Matthew Malicki
