My name is Anna and I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Illinois. I partner with my clients to help them discover and transcend challenges that may be holding them back in their lives. I believe that we all deserve to live free from shame, guilt, and emotional pain. Let's build a partnership to help you create the life you desire. I believe in approaching mental health from a whole person perspective including functional and integrative health and wellness. My style is founded on authenticity which values honesty and directness. I grew up in Poland, came to the United States with my family, graduated from Lewis University, and went on to complete my Master of Arts in Social Work at the University of Chicago, School of Social Work Administration. From there, I moved to the suburbs where I reside with my two sons, and in my free times I enjoy working in my garden, reading, and taking long walks.

Life has a way of presenting challenges that can leave us feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain about the path forward. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with an MBA and over a decade of experience, I bring both clinical expertise and a practical, solution-focused approach to help you navigate whatever you’re facing. My commitment is simple: I’ll listen deeply, meet you where you are, and work alongside you to identify actionable steps that move you from feeling stuck to making meaningful progress toward your goals. My path to becoming a therapist has been driven by a deep sense of purpose. I've always felt most authentic when helping others find their way through difficult times. This calling led me to earn my Master's in Clinical Social Work, and my commitment to growth and innovation inspired me to complete an MBA as well. For the past nine years, I've dedicated myself to serving veterans at the Department of Veterans Affairs, where I've worn many hats: conducting street outreach, securing housing for homeless veterans, building community coalitions for suicide prevention, and currently serving in a leadership role similar to Chief of Staff. This work has given me invaluable perspective on resilience, trauma, and the power of human connection. I bring all of this experience to my private practice, where I see clients on weeknights and weekends, offering the same level of dedication and care that has defined my career.

Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Indiana, with a license in Illinois. I received my Masters from Aurora University and I have been practicing for 5 years. I am a warm, empathetic therapist who helps adults become the best versions of themselves. I work to help people understand who they are and manage their various stressors, anxieties, and emotions. I use a strengths-based, solution-focused framework, I help clients recognize their resilience, build on what’s already working in their lives, and create achievable steps toward the future they want. I work with people of all identities, including LGBTQ+ individuals, and specialize in supporting those who are detransitioning or questioning a previous transgender identification. As someone who has destransitioned myself, I'm an advocate for you. I also work with personality disorders, trauma, anxiety, depression, and so much more. My biggest priority in therapy is honesty, as well as giving you a space you feel comfortable in so you can open up at your pace. I want to build a strong, lasting alliance between us so we can help you become the best version of yourself. I know that together, we are going to do great things. A little about me, I have a sphynx cat named Cupid and a black cat named Tofu. Behind me sits my spider, Marrow, who burrows and builds tunnels more than she spins webs. I also enjoy playing DND, I've been drawing since I was in kindergarten, and I play lots of video games, particularly fantasy RPGs.

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.

I have several years of experience treating individuals, families, and adolescents using a holistic, empathic, and trauma-informed approach. Watching friends and family struggle with mental health and substance abuse issues fueled my passion for helping those who struggle with these difficulties from a place of understanding, patience, and empathy. I received a BA in psychology first, which led to obtaining a substance abuse certificate. I gained experience working with families and individuals and, after some time, I was ready to further my education and obtained a Master of Social Work. This helped me expand my clinical skills and learn more targeted therapy modalities, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, DBT, psychoanalytical care, and art therapy. I found these approaches are a great synthesis of neuroscience, trauma, and creativity.

Hi! My name is Jacqueline Lizarazo, and I go by Jackie. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker specializing in therapy for individuals, children, and couples, with a focus on grief, depression, anxiety, PTSD, and sexual abuse. Why Choose Me: I want you to read the following passages: On Abuse: “I lived in a glass house into which my mother could look at any time. In a glass house, however, you cannot conceal anything without giving yourself away, except by hiding it under the ground. And then you cannot see it yourself, either.” On Depression: “Trees aren’t supposed to display fruit; they’re supposed to produce it. As much as I wanted to see results, I knew that I had to wait. The tree had to become healthy and mature before it could produce the fruit, and that takes time.” If what you read resonates with you, this is the type of therapy I offer. I push, and sometimes might make you cry—not to harm, but for growth. I deeply care about my patients and only want the best for you. I am not judgmental; I am here to listen and provide feedback. I often ask myself the question: if I were sitting where you are, would I come back? And the answer is yes. I give homework, so don’t expect it to be easy unless we need it to be. I am flexible, and my schedule is pretty open to fit your needs. We’re going to have days where we just catch up and talk about what happened that week but be prepared to talk about your past. I believe together we can grow into the person you want to be.

Hi! I'm Sharonda, a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC). Growing up in Chicago, I regularly witnessed individuals with mental health difficulties, addiction issues, individuals impacted by trauma, and those who were victims of violence. Many of them did not have guidance on how to heal or could not access helpful resources/supports. Because of that, I set my goal to be a valuable resource and advocate for anyone who may need guidance or support through their struggles. I have approximately 10 years of experience working in various mental health settings including; a substance abuse rehabilitation center; outpatient therapy facilities; within the juvenile detention center; with DCFS involved youth; Juvenile Trauma programs; and with Community Violence Intervention programs.

I am dedicated to helping people heal holistically from past traumas, anxiety, depression, anger or relationship challenges. I use a very effective treatment modality called Eye-Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to help people heal from traumatic memories, negative beliefs about themselves, or past situations in one's life that have caused them emotional pain. In addition, I teach people how to manage their thoughts and emotions using mindfulness, mind/body, meditation practices, and cognitive behavioral methods. For those who are interested in healing their mental health naturally through changing their life style habits, I have training in how proper nutrition, sleep and exercise can help improve one's brain health, and therefore improve their mental health.

Hello and Welcome! I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and here to help you with what is going on in your life. Together, let’s figure out what is getting in the way of you living your best life. Is it relationships, low mood, anxiety, depression, anger or life transitions? Even if you don’t know, we will figure it out! I use a variety of techniques to address issues such as anxiety, depression, divorce recovery, stress, relationship difficulties, mood disorders, life transitions and much more. It’s important to me that my clients feel they are in a non-judgmental safe space to process what they are going through. My clinical approach is evidence-based treatment. I utilize a variety of interventions including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Person-Centered, Solution Focused and Walk and Talk Therapy. I work with ages 18+ with a range of concerns. I work hard to provide an environment that is warm, welcoming, positive, safe, and collaborative. I started in this industry leading divorce recovery groups. I went on to lead a variety of other groups including divorce recovery, single moms, and anxiety. Life can sometimes be a struggle and asking for help isn’t always easy, but I hope you will reach out so together we can create a therapeutic relationship that will promote hope, growth, and healing. I offer sessions both virtually and in-person.

Greetings! Welcome and thank you for taking the time to read my page. My name is Erika and I am a LCPC (Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor) & ATR (registered Art Therapist) in Illinois. I earned my Master's Degree in Art Therapy & Counseling Psychology from The Adler School of Professional Psychology in 2015. I believe that there is an innate creativity in each and every one of us. I have worked in various settings such as, a domestic violence safe house, a residential treatment facility, therapeutic day schools, private practice, and with first responders in an EAP, using art therapy and somatic therapy as a way to help clients regulate and express their emotions. I have experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families from various backgrounds and those struggling with anxiety, depression, PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder), trauma, stress management, and grief & loss. I am a firm believer that the therapeutic relationship is founded on nurturing a compassionately curious and supportive environment, fostering creativity and collaboration, and building the capacity for the full spectrum of expression and resiliency. I am trained in Somatic Experiencing & EMDR (eye movement desensitization & reprocessing). I trust in the mind-body-spirit connection and have the utmost regard for the intrinsic ability everyone possesses to grow and create lasting change in our lives. It is truly an honor to have the privilege of witnessing the strength, vulnerability, and courage embedded within each individual's personal journey.
