Hi there, my name is Katie Guerrero and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the western suburbs of Chicago. I have 13 years of experience as a clinical social worker and I was previously an elementary school teacher. I have worked with ages 3-63 in home, school, community, and clinical settings, and I look forward to continuing to grow my practice here. I use a variety of treatment methods depending on each clients' needs, including Cognitive Behavioral therapy, Bowen Family Systems Theory, play therapy, mindfulness, Social thinking, Solution-Focused therapy, etc. My goal is make you feel comfortable so we can work together to find your happiness and fulfillment in healthy relationships, work, home, community, and educational settings.

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

I will meet with you where you are at in life and together we will work on moving forward. I focus on healing past hurts, and looking to the future with optimism and grit. I work from a client centered, strengths based perspective and look forward to assisting you with reaching your life goals. It is never too late to begin again.

What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?

I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Bowen Family Systems Theory, and in addressing depression, anxiety, school concerns, behavior concerns, developmental delays, Autism, ADHD, loneliness, domestic violence, parenthood, self-esteem, and starting over.

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

My biggest strengths are compassion, empathy, and patience. The road to happiness is a journey and not a race. Taking the time to get there is what's most important. By looking inward I can assist you with finding your peace and joy in life.
