I am Kris Munson and I have a lot of experience as a psychotherapist. I have worked in inpatient and outpatient scenarios as well as community mental health, group homes and private practice. I have been seeing client virtually for many years, but have been exclusively virtual since the start of Covid. Overall I work with a wide variety of issues, such as depression, anxiety, panic attacks, women's issues, anger management, low self-esteem and most other common issues of the current times. I also seek out working with individuals who have chronic health issues, as they have their own elements that need to be considered. I have a laid back, calming style, and provide thoughtful feedback . I enjoy getting to know my clients so I can make personalized suggestions and play to people's strengths. On a personal note I live in the Chicago far west suburbs and have four grown children whom were adopted from Guatemala. We have a number of pets and enjoy road trips when we can make them happen.

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 tend to thrive in crisis. Ideal with the toughest cases of trauma, shootings, cults abductions, and domestic violence. I have been able to help so many veterans as well over the past 12+ years in my positions with US Service Animals, Simple, Practice, Grow Therapy and other telehealth platforms. I was an early adopter of telehealth and I have seen it. Make such a difference for so many people because of the comfort that is brought by being able to open up in an environment you know is safe, your own home/space. I take a solutions focused and a client centered approach. I am also insight oriented. I have a lot of insight when it comes to dealing with physical pain and disabilities as I have a visual disability since very young and suffered a TBI at age 24. I like to focus on what issues you are having and come up with coping mechanisms that will work for you. Dealing with the struggles I have had throughout my life has helped me work with people and develop creative and effective coping mechanisms for their specific issues. I have now lived and worked in several states with varying cultures and have benefited from all of these experiences. I have spent a lot of time in a hospital and work well with nurses and medical professionals as well. Please reach out if you think I can help and I will meet you where you are and see where we can go from here.

I am a licensed mental health and addiction counselor with a background in the psychobiology of addiction and a strong focus on helping individuals create meaningful, lasting change. My work blends evidence-based therapy with a trauma-informed, nervous-system-aware approach, recognizing that healing often involves more than insight alone.

Together, we focus on increasing self-awareness, strengthening internal resources, and building skills that support sustainable change both inside and outside of therapy.

I’m a therapist focused on men’s mental health with a special emphasis in addiction recovery. In plain English: I help men who are overwhelmed, burned out, or stuck in habits they swear they’re quitting… next week. I’m here to help you break patterns that don’t work—even the ones you’ve been stubbornly loyal to. If addiction, compulsive behaviors, anxiety, depression, or relationship stress are running your life like a chaotic group project, we’ll work together to take the wheel back. My approach is part strategy, part straight talk, and part humor—because if we can’t laugh at the mess sometimes, the mess wins. And honestly—if you just need to talk about Wednesday, we can do that too. Together, we’ll dig into what’s behind your patterns, build coping skills that actually work, and help you stop self-destructing out of sheer habit. We’ll also tackle distractions and develop real self-love—two surprisingly powerful tools for becoming the guy you meant to be. And no, self-love is not as weird as it sounds. I offer in person Visits Sundays and Mondays.

This flexibility allows me to draw from various modalities and techniques best to support my clients in their journey towards healthier lives. **Please note that I do not work every single Friday due to military obligations.

My main focus in therapy is to support clients not just manage but understand their symptoms and their root causes, and improve their relationship with themselves and the community around them. I focus on providing a non-judgmental environment where clients can freely share their story with mental health issues, understand patterns, notice ways they have been coping that have been positive and change unhealthy coping mechanisms. I also work on supporting clients recognize how they relate to themselves and others, increase their sense of control in relationships, and slowly develop ability to have more empathy and compassion for themselves and others.

Through a client-centered, feminist, and trauma-informed lens, I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental, empathic, and collaborative space for healing and growth. Therapy sessions will be designed based on your particular needs and your unique style of working, and are adjustable based on how you are doing the day of the session. I know that clients are the experts in their own lives, and that my work is to provide support while they are navigating their challenges.

Hi, my name is Tishina and I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. For the past eight years, I've had the privilege of helping people navigate trauma, anxiety, depression, PTSD, mood changes, and the challenges that come with everyday problem solving. I became a therapist because therapy changed my life. It helped me heal, find my voice, and believe in myself and now I'm passionate about offering that same support and hope to the people that I work with.
