Therapists in Illinois

Hello, and thank you for taking a moment to get to know me. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 10 years of experience, and my counseling is built on both professional training and a strong foundation of faith in Jesus Christ. I believe lasting healing and peace come when we bring our struggles to Him and align our lives with His truth. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with individuals, couples, and families through many different seasons of life. A large part of my work has been with those experiencing anxiety—helping clients uncover what triggers their fears, offering practical tools for managing anxious thoughts, and reminding them of God’s promises of peace and strength. I also enjoy walking alongside couples and individuals who are navigating relationship challenges. Communication is often one of the hardest hurdles, and I help clients learn to listen with grace, speak with honesty, and build stronger, Christ-centered connections. In addition, I work with youth and young adults as they face the pressures of growing up, making big decisions, and finding their way. It is such a joy to guide them toward wisdom, confidence, and faith in who God created them to be. I deeply value working with older adults, helping them navigate transitions, loss, or the unique challenges of aging while holding onto the hope and purpose God gives in every season of life. No matter your age or situation, my heart is to provide a safe, supportive space where you feel seen, heard, and encouraged. Together, we will seek God’s wisdom and develop practical steps to help you move forward with greater peace, purpose, and hope.

What happens when our well-intentioned - yet sometimes uncooperative - brains try to protect us from experiencing harm? Yup, you got it! It's called Stress, also known as Anxiety, and at times it can be quite the nuisance. You are welcome to join me on a journey of knowledge and self-discovery to recognize and appreciate how our brain and bodies have helped us survive the personal challenges and struggles life presents. And then, let's help our brain recognize that, when we are actually safe, we don't need to go into stress mode, and we can learn how to direct Anxiety to take a seat until it is next needed. Often times, Anxiety's friends, Depression and Trauma, love to join the party (uninvited). Together, we can learn to appreciate them as well, while sending them on their way. Along the way, let's tap into a bit of Grace and Self-Compassion. Let's also identify the multitude of Strengths and Resources in place, and use them to move from a Fear-Based response, to one of Courage.

Hi there! I’m a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) based in Chicago, Illinois, with over 7 years of experience specializing in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).

In our work together, I use CBT techniques to help you identify and reframe unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. My approach is collaborative and empathetic, aimed at empowering you to develop practical coping strategies and a deeper understanding of self. Whether you're struggling with intense emotions, navigating complex relationships, or managing anxiety, my goal is to create a safe and supportive space where you can explore your concerns and work towards meaningful change.

Greetings, I'm Maritza Solis, a bilingual and bicultural clinical therapist who is passionate about holistic methods to heal people's mind, body, and spirit. Through my culture I learned about the power of community, spirituality, and natural remedies to promote well-being. My philosophy of therapy is based on the belief that everyone has the ability to heal themselves, and my role is to facilitate that process by providing a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space. I draw from evidence-based techniques such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and dialectical behavior therapy, as well as natural remedies, prayer, meditation, and yoga to create a truly holistic approach. Ultimately, my goal as a therapist is to empower individuals to live their best lives by helping them reconnect with their inner selves and tap into their own inherent healing abilities. I believe that true healing happens when we address the whole person - mind, body, and spirit. Open to working with children and adolescents ages 8 and older.

In my experience as a counselor, I have had the privilege of working with a wide range of individuals in various settings. I have worked with children and adults in the community, residential, hospital, and educational settings. In each environment I have witnessed the marvel of human potential firsthand. As a clinician I approach people and the work that I do from the belief that people have the innate ability to grow and heal on their own. My personal life experience and my practice have fostered this belief, recognizing that the process may require or be made more manageable with some assistance or a guide, in the form of counseling. Through my experiences I have witnessed the benefits of the human components that aid in the healing process of psychological symptoms that create difficulty in moving toward fulfillment and full integration of the human experience in the lives of many. The therapeutic relationship, authenticity, and unconditional positive regard are components that for me represent the core of therapy. These components create an experience in which someone can safely explore themselves, their experiences, the world around them, and identify solutions to ailments and the "true self" that is often altered by the world around us.

I look at my clients as already complete human beings. You are more than your problems, and not as simple as a textbook. I treat each of my clients as a unique and whole person, not as a set of symptoms. I help my clients build on their strengths, to create a better sense of wellbeing. Whatever challenges you are facing, whatever difficulties you are having, I assure you that you are worth being heard. You are worth being treated with compassion, in a nonjudgmental setting. I am here to help you find healing and wholeness.

Hello and welcome! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Psychotherapist specializing in working with middle-aged and older adults. I understand how daunting it can feel to find the right therapist among so many choices. In my own journey, I’ve experienced the profound challenges and rewards of caregiving, having cared for my father during his struggle with Lewy Body Dementia and my mother through her battle with COVID. Stepping away from my professional role during that time gave me a deeper appreciation for the emotional and physical demands of caregiving—and for the healing power of therapy.

I am a licensed clinical professional counselor with private practice experience, as well as inpatient units in hospitals and advising students in high schools. I have a reputation for being empathic, an active listener, and having versatile ability to relate to others challenges. I have been recognized for building and sustaining trusting, positive relationships with my clients, along with my use of humor to connect with others in session.

I’m a licensed clinical social worker dedicated to helping clients navigate life’s challenges with compassion and practical support. I specialize in working with individuals managing anxiety, stress, and life transitions, and I use evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to promote growth and resilience. My goal is to create a safe, collaborative space where you feel understood and empowered to make meaningful change.
