Hello, my name is Doug. I have been a mental health professional for 15 years and have worked in many different venues with many different populations. The central theme of my work has always been helping people get to where they want to go. In sessions- you and I will ally to identify and then work towards any goals you have while I serve as a supportive resource who will aim to be useful in helping you notice patterns and build skills. Mental health is health and as humans we all need support enriching our health. My goal will always be to support you.

Hi everyone, welcome to my profile. I am glad that you are engaged in this journey of self-help and interested in learning more about therapy. I recognize that, for many, therapy, is a big step in trying to improve their lives, and people can be nervous or unfamiliar with therapy, at first. Regardless of any stigmas attached to therapy, I firmly believe in the importance of therapy and that this process has helped many people. I strive to make the therapeutic environment a comfortable and non-judgmental place where clients feel they can fully express themselves. I am originally from New York- born and raised. I moved to Chicago in June of 2025 and I am living and experiencing a new city. I have worked with a variety of clients, including those of different ages and backgrounds. My areas of focus, include, but not limited to, 1) Grief and Loss 2) Family and personal relationships, including divorce, marriage, and romantic relationships 3) Emotional Regulation and anger management, 4) Anxiety and stress 5) Life Transitions.

I’m Mark, a therapist who believes healing works best when it feels like a genuine partnership. I bring a grounded, approachable style to therapy — one that’s warm, accepting, and human. I work with people from diverse backgrounds and experiences, and I value the unique stories and identities each person brings. My role is to walk alongside you, offering steadiness, curiosity, and the occasional well‑timed laugh as we navigate the hard parts and celebrate the moments of growth.

Starting therapy can feel intimidating at any stage of life. Whether you are a teenager navigating the challenges of adolescence or an adult managing life's responsibilities and transitions, seeking support is a courageous step. I strive to create a therapeutic space that is welcoming, compassionate, and free from judgment, where you can safely explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. I believe therapy is more than just talking—it can be a place to laugh, reflect, learn, heal, and grow. My approach is personalized to meet the unique needs of each individual. For adolescents, I incorporate creative and engaging interventions, including art, games, and interactive activities, to encourage self-expression, emotional awareness, and healthy coping skills. For adults, I provide a supportive environment to process challenges, build resilience, and work toward meaningful goals. The teenage years can bring challenges related to identity, friendships, family relationships, academic pressures, self-esteem, anxiety, and emotional well-being. Adults often face stressors related to careers, relationships, parenting, life transitions, grief, anxiety, depression, and balancing responsibilities. Regardless of age or circumstance, everyone deserves a space where they feel heard, understood, and supported. I believe each person has a unique story, and my role is to listen, understand, and help them build on their strengths. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in a practical, down-to-earth way, helping clients recognize patterns that may be keeping them stuck. Together, we identify goals, develop healthy coping strategies, and work toward positive change. As a clinician, I am honest, transparent, open-minded, and approachable. Whether you are an adolescent finding your voice or an adult seeking support through life's complexities, I am committed to walking alongside you with empathy, encouragement, and respect. I look forward to getting to know you and supporting your journey toward growth and healing.

I am a warm empathetic therapist who will hear your perspectives and help you identify any limiting beliefs. I will provide a safe place that will allow you to reach your fullest potential.

"I will look for the flowers by the side of the road; I will laugh and love and be strong. I will try to lighten another’s load this day as I fare along". --MARY S. EDGAR My name is Jen and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a Clinical Trauma Professional. I would love to work alongside you as your therapist. I have 20 years of experience providing both mental health and addictions therapy to individuals, couples, families, and groups. My Master’s degree is in Community Mental Health Counseling, Addictions Counseling, and Marriage and Family Therapy (2009), and I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Family Studies (2006). I've worked in in Telehealth, community mental health, schools, shelters, and private practices. Since becoming a counselor, clients, such as yourself, have come to me for a lot of different things, including trauma (particularly in the areas of childhood abuse, domestic violence, religious trauma, and first responder and military trauma), LGBTQ+ issues, personality disorders, family and social relationships, self-esteem, depression, anxiety, and substance abuse. Currently, I work with women and nonbinary clients with a history of trauma and abuse, sexual trauma, eating disorders, and military veterans and their partners. In particular, a lot of my clients with a history of trauma come to process this in treatment; however, trauma doesn't necessary have to be their main focus of therapy. Personally, I have always enjoyed my job as a therapist. It has been good to see change in my clients regardless if they see their change as little or big. Watching growth in the people I work with truly makes my work worth it. After work, I enjoy being outside, watching sports (especially basketball), being at a beach, reading, binge watching TV series, and spending time with my family.

I believe in the transformative change that takes places when clients are ready and empowered to make meaningful change. I work with you to explore, find meaning, and create long term solutions to build a life that is align with your goals and values. Utilizing both a psychodynamic, relational and solutions focused approach, the purpose is to find ways of managing symptoms and improve your quality of life.

You may be going through big changes in life, fatherhood-motherhood, new marriage, professional challenges, or facing illness, getting older, losing people close to you, moving to a new place, starting over after divorce, or adjusting after a breakup or a change in your military life. These experiences can make anyone wonder who they are, how they relate to others, how they make decisions, and how they deal with grief, change, and conflict. Life keeps giving me chances to adjust to changes in my body, feelings, thoughts, and spirit. Some days are easier than others, and that’s just part of being human. I see it as a way to keep getting stronger, more flexible, and better at handling life.When my emotions feel really strong, I may feel pulled in different directions.
