Therapists in Little Italy, Chicago, IL

I believe in creating a safe, non-judgmental space where clients feel free to let their true selves be seen. We all innately crave love, connection, and healthy relationships. We were not created to do life alone. I view each person as a holistic being, considering your mental, physical, relational, emotional, and spiritual health as we journey together towards healing, growth, and a meaningful life.

The first step to seeking help can be intimidating and the most difficult. Therapy can bring clarity and an expanded view of what’s possible. The more we understand ourselves and our experiences, the more control we have over living a life that reflects who we are. As your therapist, I will support you in navigating difficult emotions, better understanding yourself and accessing your strengths so you can feel like yourself again.

​I provide individual therapy rooted in attachment-based therapy; drawing from diverse methodologies appropriate to diverse individuals with unique needs. I believe that presenting a warm, safe, and comfortable environment is essential for therapeutic growth. I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC), with a Masters in Counseling Psychology from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology. Currently accepting clients paying out of pocket; BCBS IL & Aetna coverage accepted soon! Please feel free to email me at RoseHavenCounseling@gmail.com or go to my website rosehavencounseling.clientsecure.me

I work from a position of Cultural Humility to explore inter-generational trauma, anxiety, and depression. My clients range in age from 6 - 60 and together we work to identify interventions that reduce symptoms and increase quality of life. My style varies based on client needs where I utilize an integrative method to the counseling process reflecting on sources that encompass aspects of Mindfulness, DBT, and Solution-Focused therapy techniques. I mix strength-based strategies along with behavioral exploration and mindfulness to encourage self-awareness while promoting growth and change.

“Why am I overwhelmed? What’s wrong with me? I should be over my anxiety by now.” Can you relate? My name is Candice Beaton and I help people understand and manage their anxiety. By coming to a session with me, you will finally be able to grasp your situation and learn tools to manage anxiety and stress in relationships with yourself and others, at work, and with family.

My name is Leah R Jones, Mental Health Professional at Holistically Divine Counseling. I earned my Master’s of Arts in Art Therapy and Counseling from the School of The Art Institute of Chicago. I believe all humans are unique and have significance in the world. Our experiences shape who we are and impact how we show up for ourselves and others. There are times when we are faced with challenges that may be difficult to process and understand. It is my mission to guide others along their journey to gain clarity, healing, and become their best self!

I am latinx and first gen and specialize in working with adults who face challenges related to anxiety, emotional binge eating, self-esteem issues, and trauma. My mission is to help clients find peace in their daily lives by unpacking beliefs, behaviors, and emotions that may be holding them back. For some, this may mean working through symptoms of anxiety or trauma. It can also include working through unresolved childhood wounds which may impact current relationships or self-esteem. I will help you explore with warmth, curiosity, & compassion.

Welcome! What areas in your life are you avoiding? Are you feeling stuck in life and in your relationships? My passion lies in working with individuals desiring to achieve more autonomy, working through feelings, addressing areas of guilt/shame and avoidance, establishing strong boundaries for themselves, and strengthening relationships. It takes courage to seek help and desire to work through your issues.

I work alongside clients to help them develop a more balanced, integrated, and grounded sense of self. I believe that through therapy, clients can gain more in-depth awareness of their emotional experience, their thoughts and behaviors, and how one’s past may inform one’s present. This awareness can help create space for self-acceptance and self-compassion, and cultivate personal growth and desired change. I find that my approach to therapy tends to be a good fit for people who are looking to gain insight and understanding about themselves, not just looking for skills to manage symptoms or "quick fixes."

You might be noticing patterns showing up in your life. You might feel confused and unsure about how to make changes in your life. Have you noticed trauma symptoms interfering with your daily life? Want to work with clinicians who are passionate about providing quality mental health sessions virtually? At Healing and Fuerza therapy, we will honor how cultural, systemic oppression, gender and sexual orientation impact your mental health.

Welcome, Millennial and Gen Z women! You're determined, ambitious, and focused on achieving your career, education, and life goals. I understand the frustrations that come with being hard on yourself, holding back from speaking up, and feeling overwhelmed by social media. You want to prioritize yourself more and break free from the people-pleaser label. Therapy can be the key to your success and happiness.

Maybe you've asked yourself, why can't I shake these feelings? The difficulty concentrating, worrying, sadness, crying spells, feeling empty or just stuck. Or have you thought, when will I get over this? I'm tired of having flashbacks, feeling "on edge" and restless nights. Perhaps you've considered "OK, now what?" after the divorce, unexpected loss, new job, a recent diagnosis, infidelity, or navigating this space of uncertainty and pandemic related changes. Whether it's a relational struggle, figuring out your happiness, exploring your faith and everything else in between, you do have a choice in creating the life you desire!

My beliefs, values and understanding is that all humans are made whole because we were created in God’s own image. I am passionate about creating a safe, supportive and transformative space for people to develop techniques to assist them with navigating in healthy ways through this journey called life. I have a unique ability to build rapport with all people and have a niche for working with emerging adults, adults and older adults. I love working with all women and have a special place in my heart for women of color. My daily mission is to bring light to help individuals obtain peace from within.

My therapeutic style focuses on safety and empowerment. While I may be the “professional,” you are the expert of your own life. To establish trust, I wear my heart on my nerdy sleeve. I would never ask you to risk your vulnerability if I am unwilling to risk my own. I may use humor to foster hope and ease discomfort. I welcome you to question my perspectives to improve the power of our co-created insights. We will collaborate and develop ways for you to make new choices, break old patterns, and build more effective supports. Our work will help you unlock your potential for healing, and get you closer to the person you want to be.

I am passionate about providing evidence-based treatments including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Exposure & Response Prevention, and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy for older adolescents, young adults and adults with OCD, depression, anxiety and related disorders. Over the past 5+ years, I have deepened my commitment to providing effective therapy through a personalized and strengths-based approach. I work collaboratively and flexibly with my clients to help develop goals in line with living a more meaningful and values-driven life. I strive to form a supportive therapeutic bond through compassion, warmth, empathy and humor.

If you are noticing yourself having difficulty managing your relationships, work/life balance, parenting, intense anxiety or depression, please know you are not alone.

My name is Carmen Martinez, Bilingual Counselor at Holistically Divine Counseling. I deeply believe all humans have a purpose, a God-given talent, ability, desire, and light within them to be the best version of themselves and the natural will to live their best lives possible throughout their journey. Sometimes, that light within can become dim and distant due to life’s struggles, challenges, and adversities.

Asking for help isn't always easy, so I have tremendous respect for the courage and strength it takes to seek professional guidance. Working from the belief that change is always possible, I help my clients identify their strengths, what's getting in the way of making changes in their life, and the most effective ways to achieve their goals. My style of counseling is supportive and collaborative, with an emphasis on respect, encouragement, and hope.
