Hello, I'm Kunume, a licensed clinical social worker and registered therapist based in Illinois. I earned my Master's degree from the University of Minnesota and have over 15 years of experience in the field. I’ve worked with adults, couples, and children in diverse environments, using a variety of therapeutic approaches. My methods include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, solution-focused strategies, and experiential techniques to help individuals navigate emotional and life challenges toward a healthier emotional state. I strive to create a welcoming, non-judgmental environment where you can feel comfortable being yourself as we work together to achieve the balance you seek.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session, we will get to know each other and what challenges your are facing. We will discuss expectations during our therapeutic relationship and what is most important to you.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I am easy to talk to and engage quickly with my clients. I create a non-judgmental and safe space where we can build trust and collaborate mutually to tackle the issues that you are facing.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I will use cognitive behavioral therapy to explore both the conscious and subconscious thoughts that affect your emotion and behaviors. We will explore how to be aware of these elements and how to utilize alternative ways of thinking to create a more balanced emotional state.
