Dr. Rick Williams, CEAP,CSAYC,LSOE,LSOTP

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), Licensed Sex Offender Evaluator and Treatment Provider, and Licensed Clinical Addiction Counselor (LCAC), I believe meaningful change happens when people are met with dignity, accountability, and compassion. I provide a safe and structured environment for individuals addressing sexual offending behaviors, substance use, and co-occurring mental health challenges.

Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), the Good Lives Model, Relapse Prevention, and trauma-informed care, I help clients build insight, strengthen protective factors, and develop healthier ways of living. Every treatment plan is individualized and guided by evidence-based assessment tools to promote personal growth and long-term stability.

If you’re ready to take the next step toward change, I’m here to support you.

Because every situation is unique, I use a tailored, strengths-based approach to meet clients where they are in times of crisis and help them achieve meaningful, lasting outcomes. I believe in drawing on each person’s inner strengths to guide them through recovery, accountability, and growth. I offer specialized interventions for alcohol, drug, gambling, mental health, and other process addictions, working with both adolescents and adults.

I am licensed as a Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Illinois and Indiana, as well as a Licensed Clinical Addiction Counselor (LCAC) in Indiana. I hold multiple certifications in addiction treatment and am a DOT-qualified Substance Abuse Professional (SAP), a Substance Abuse Expert, and a Certified Employee Assistance Professional (CEAP). Additionally, I am a Licensed Sex Offender Evaluator (LSOE) and Licensed Sex Offender Treatment Provider (LSOTP) in Illinois, and a Certified Sexual Abuse Youth Counselor (CSAYC) in Indiana. My diverse training allows me to provide effective, compassionate care across a wide range of behavioral health needs.
