University/Illinois School of Professional Psychology.  Dr. Beltramo has worked in the behavioral health field in a variety of capacities for 18 years.  From multiply-diagnosed, residentially-placed adolescents to domestic violence offenders to private practice settings, the range of his experience is broad, varied, and comprehensive. 

In addition to his clinical work, Dr. Beltramo serves as an adjunct professor at higher educational institutions including the College of Lake County, Roosevelt University, and Argosy University.  He is a co-director of Metamorphosis Behavioral Consultants, designing and presenting training, workshops, and seminars for educators and fellow behavioral health professionals.

Dr. Beltramo’s approach to therapy – whether it be in private practice or as one of Lake County’s domestic violence service providers – is holistic and non-pathologizing.  He takes a collaborative approach to his clients, focusing on the quality of the client – therapist relationship, and making a priority of acknowledging and honoring the client’s perspective.  He stresses the connection of Mind – Body – Spirit in his work.
