-Now accepting new clients!- I help others actualize the change they desire. I believe all humans possess inherit worth and value and I use a person-first lens with clients. Therapy is a place to feel heard, connect in a genuine way, and practice relational living with a supportive professional. Are you a parent needing help because your teen is struggling? Maybe you are a teen who is questioning their identity, or an adult looking for help through life transitions. My hope for clients is they come as they are, be honest about what they need, and reconnect with their truest self for long-lasting change.

Life can sometimes feel overwhelming, exhausting, and filled with obstacles. I place emphasis on building trust and rapport with each person. I am a firm believer that each person deserves to work with someone who they can trust and freely open up with. My approach to therapy is to help you overcome those obstacles, reconnect with yourself, your loved ones, and your world. I find that there is a huge importance in ensuring that each person can find their voice and is able to use it to advocate for their needs. As a result of my history of working at Chicago Public Schools I have extensive experience helping children meet their goals

As a Mexican-American therapist I want to provide a safe space and cultural competency for all. My background currently consists of working with survivors of Domestic Violence/IPV. Through my work with these clients I have also helped them work on the following: Improving self-esteem, understanding how to set boundaries in relationships, creating support systems that cater to a better sense of self, learning and establishing a sense of identity, and intergenerational trauma. My goal is to help individuals who want to better define who they are and heal from the impacts of external factors in order to live a more fulfilled life.

With over 5 years of clinical experience, my work focuses on meeting clients where they are at and providing a safe space for growth, acceptance, and healing. I have worked with children, family, and adults. I believe in being a supportive role in helping my clients reach their goals within their specific context. Often times, I see clients that wish to seek therapy to better themselves and grow their self-awareness in order to build skills to resolve the challenges they face. My belief is that clients can benefit from an unbiased perspective and I can provide this space for individuals to grow at their own pace.

¡Hola! First of all, I commend you. It takes courage to take the steps to care for your mental health. As a proud Latinx woman, I understand the stigma that comes with engaging in mental wellness services in our community. The truth is, there is nothing to be ashamed of. We can all benefit from some support every once in a while. Most importantly, you don't have to do it alone.

As a licensed clinical social worker, I believe it is important to start where the patient (or family) is in their therapeutic journey. I can help you explore and understand the emotional barriers in life and reach your full potential utilizing patient-centered and strengths-based approach to care.

Your thoughts are racing again. You’re late again. Showering took forever, breakfast was an ordeal, and leaving the house required an extensive pre-flight checklist. People wonder why everything takes you so long. You’re ashamed to admit that even the simplest tasks have become a complex choreography of inexplicable compulsions. How can you expect anyone to understand what you’re facing when you don’t get it yourself? You know there’s no logical reason you do the things you do. But it doesn’t matter; a part of you truly believes that something terrible will happen if you don’t do, feel, or think the right thing.

This a group practice that employs clinicans of various ethnicities and backgrounds. People come to therapy due to feeling excessive stress at work, at home, or in their relationships. They find the pressures of everyday life have exceeded their abilities, overwhelmed their senses, and left them with an inability to cope. They are often having problems with school, completing tasks, getting along with others at work, and finding activities enjoyable. We believe in the resiliency of the human spirit, and that therapy is a process of exploring and getting to know oneself.

Feeling lost, hurt, angry, overwhelmed or worried? Know that you are not alone. As you begin to think about what is next, how to feel better and how to start the next chapter in your life think about giving yourself the opportunity of creating a fresh start.

Have you been through an experience that has made you feel stuck, isolated, or confused? Maybe it has been a traumatic experience, relationship problems, professional challenges, cultural/racial experiences or even every day stress. We often think we have to face these challenges alone and “move on!” Working together, we will work on healing, building healthy skills to cope, and developing healthy patterns that work for you and liberate you from the experiences that may be holding you back.

My name is Dr. Amr Kireem, a clinical psychologist and licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) in the state of Illinois. I have been working with clients since 2009 who struggle with anxiety, depression, ADHD, addiction, OCD, PTSD/trauma, relationship issues, codependency, life transitions, and other symptoms.

Hello my name is Dr. Deadre Holmes and I am a licensed psychologist. My approach to therapy is collaborative, I bring knowledge and skills to our relationship, and you bring your life experiences. In my practice, I focus on stress management, anxiety, trauma, multiculturalism, and relationship issues. I don’t believe that I have any particular type of client that I typically work with. Instead, I have types of conditions and concerns that I typically work with. I am comfortable, treating anxiety, trauma, phase of life concerns or transitions, multicultural issues and stress management.

Sometimes parenting feels traumatic, and you are tired of feeling alone. I help parents understand their child's most frustrating, confusing, and overwhelming behaviors while also guiding them to experience more confidence and regulation. My theoretical paths include trauma-informed, attachment-based, and somatic in nature. I practice somatic touch, which effectively facilitates regulation in a person's nervous system. It is hard to change the way we parent even if we know what to do. I provide the practical resources and support that you need.
