🧠 Hey, I'm Tina — and I'm glad you're here. I'm a psychotherapist with over 25 years of experience providing therapy in person and online.
If you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck in your head, or like you're constantly second-guessing yourself... you're not alone. Whether you're a teen navigating school and social pressure, a young adult figuring out life direction, or someone who's overwhelmed and just tired of carrying the weight of anxiety, depression, or ADHD — I’ve got you.
🌿 How I help
My approach blends evidence-based tools (like CBT, DBT, ACT, and mindfulness) with the latest insights from neuroscience — because when you understand how your brain works, change becomes way more possible.
Together, we’ll untangle what’s getting in the way of your confidence, motivation, and peace of mind. I specialize in:
- Anxiety & overthinking
- Depression & lack of motivation
- ADHD & focus struggles
- Low self-esteem & self-doubt
- Life transitions & emotional overwhelm
- Relationships and social support
💬 What therapy with me feels like
Think of our sessions like a mix of real talk, science-backed strategies, and personalized support. I’m not here to “fix” you — because you’re not broken. I’m here to walk alongside you as you rediscover your strength, your clarity, and your calm.
📍 Who I work with
I offer virtual therapy for:
- Teens (13+)
- Young adults
- Adults of all ages

When we’re able to see things from a different perspective, it helps us find a better solution to the problem.

Hello! I am Rebecca, a therapist practicing in Illinois. In 2013 I graduated from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology with my Master's degree. I received training in EMDR by the EMDR Institute. Currently, I practice 100% telehealth, so we can work together no matter where you live. I see clients who are struggling with anxiety, depression, life changes, grief for the loss of a human or pet, and trauma.
We all make changes when we are ready. Change can be difficult, and it's not all forward movement. I'm a very laid-back therapist, and provide a safe, judgement-free space where I'll work with you by listening, questioning, and using curiosity. I can help by teaching you skills, discussing decisions, and helping you learn how to change the way you think about yourself, other people, and the world. If appropriate, I can help you with traumatic experiences by providing EMDR and "parts" work.
Give yourself the gift of therapy. Explore new ways of seeing things, new ways to manage emotions, new ways of communicating with others, and new ways to care for yourself.

Hi! I'm Dena (she/her).
I have 15 years experience and truly love my vocation! I enjoy empowering individuals to achieve their goals and live their best lives. I believe everyone has the ability to heal, sometimes we all need a little help. I am passionate about the power of therapy to aid people in living their best, most authentic lives.
I live on the tristate border and provide remote therapy for persons in Illinois and Iowa. An Iowa native, I spent about a decade living and working in SoCal and Phoenix before returning to the Midwest to be with my (now) husband and step kids. Yes, I left sunny San Diego, in December, for the snowy Midwest! The things we’ll do for love!
I have personally benefitted greatly from therapy. I am Bi/queer, have ADHD, and several physical disabilities, all of which were diagnosed after college. Therapy helped me develop much needed coping skills so I could be successful in grad school and beyond. Therapy also helped me with the intense stressors related to being a young professional during the Great Recession. I continue to utilize therapy as part of my self care routine.
If you are coping with symptoms of anxiety, depression, low self worth, or concerns related to ADHD or chronic health conditions, I would love the opportunity to work with you. I would love to help you to achieve a present no longer overshadowed by past traumas, negative self talk, or uncontrolled anxiety.

I have the honor, and privilege, of providing mental health services to young adults, and adults and provide counseling for a wide range of concerns including, anxiety, depression, substance misuse, processing addictions, anger, relationship difficulties, and life transitions.
My counseling style focuses primarily on empowering clients to lead better lives, and in so doing, treat them with respect and dignity in a safe, supportive, encouraging, and warm space. My role as a therapist is to guide, advocate, advise, and educate those in need as they find their voices and healthier lifestyles, meeting them where they are at – believing that clients are the experts of their lives.
I strive to establish rapport through understanding, honesty, and positive regard toward the individual while applying person-centered, person-in-environment theoretical orientations, and motivational interviewing. I use an integrated approach, based on the client’s needs through the course of therapy, established on client-therapist collaborative treatment plan development. This plan might integrate a combination of cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness, meditation skills, dialectical behavioral therapy, and acceptance commitment therapy, grounded on the client’s preferences and needs.

As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC), my mission is to guide individuals on a journey back to their innate wisdom, compassion, peace, and confidence. I often think of the story of Michelangelo, who described sculpting as the act of chipping away marble to reveal the beauty already within. This metaphor beautifully captures the counseling process: together, we identify and remove the barriers obscuring your true SELF, allowing your inner brilliance to shine through.
My approach is rooted in deep compassion for the human experience. I bring to our work a blend of trauma-informed care and evidence-based practices, enriched by certifications in Mind-Body Bridging, Cognitively-Based Compassion Training, and Cultivating Emotional Balance. I draw from powerful therapeutic frameworks, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Mindful Self-Compassion, and Compassionate Inquiry, tailoring each session to meet your unique needs.

Life can be challenging, but you don't have to navigate it alone.
If you feel lost and unsure of your life's direction, are struggling with strained relationships, or find yourself overwhelmed by daily responsibilities, know that you are not alone. Many people share these feelings, and seeking guidance is a courageous first step toward change. Children, adolescents, and adults alike can feel discouraged, unmotivated, and frustrated by life's demands. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I work with individuals across all life stages to address these challenges.
For children, I help develop social skills, identify and manage emotions, and teach problem-solving strategies for everyday situations.
For adolescents, I assist in exploring life choices such as, peer and parent relationships, identity, attend or not attending college, and managing complex emotions.
For adults, I provide support in finding purpose, building self-care routines, and navigating life's transitions.
Together, we'll identify your current concerns and explore how your past experiences may be shaping your present. By uncovering your strengths, we'll create practical strategies to help you move forward. We'll set meaningful goals and work collaboratively to achieve them in a supportive and nonjudgmental environment.

Hello! I'm Michelle.
As a dedicated mental health therapist, I am committed to guiding individuals on their journey towards well-being with a strong emphasis on self-care and intention. My goal is to get my clients started with building awareness of the patterns and behaviors causing distress, setting out to build strategies into seeing the “bigger picture”, and then making the choice to shift away into "new and different".
I believe that the mental health journey can feel different for everyone and is valid for all. It’s addressing the pile-on effects of everyday stress and learning how to breathe through anxiety and panic attacks. It’s establishing and keeping a daily routine as part of ADHD symptom management and finding self-compassion when experiencing depressive thoughts. There is no perfect or prescriptive way to approach the process of mental well-being. My role as a therapist is to support, facilitate, and provide collaborative space to examine all the pieces.
