Therapists in Chicago, IL

As a licensed professional counselor, I would like to assist you in a nonjudgmental, compassionate and safe environment for you to process daily struggles that are causing you to feel stressed, overwhelmed, anxious or depressed. I look forward to the opportunity to work alongside you and empower you to make the changes that you desire.

Hello! I’m a licensed counselor with over 7 years of experience. I commonly treat anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma, intrusive thoughts, anger problems, codependency/personal boundary issues, and interpersonal distress. I use a mix of Dialectical (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment (ACT), Attachment-based, Person-Centered, and Gestalt approaches. I am particularly interested in parent-child relationships and hope to help parents improve family functioning and satisfaction through parent-coaching. I strive to meet my clients where they are at in their journey towards healing and self-improvement.

Welcome! I am accepting new clients! I offer some evidence based tools to foster behavioral change. There is a place for talk, yet there is a need sometimes for actionable steps, suggestions and even challenges in a safe and respectful way. If you're ready to take action and take responsibility for your life, give me a call. I specialize in treating clients for trauma, addiction, mood disorders, low self esteem, eating disorders and codependency.

Is your heart heavy from trauma or impacted by childhood trauma, C-PTSD/PTSD depression, anxiety, or dissociation? Do you feel alone, stuck in the past, or always end up in abusive relationships? Are you experiencing feelings of unsafe or powerlessness even after the abuse has ended? Do you feel overwhelmed by struggles, using things to try to forget or numb the pain? I understand how trauma can lead to mental and behavioral challenges. Trauma can prevent you from living authentically, as it triggers fear-based reactions and self-defeating thoughts. I'm here to help you unravel some of these thoughts, and find inner peace.

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.

Finding the right therapist is essential in one's journey toward overcoming obstacles. I believe counseling is a collaborative and creative process where we join together to establish the change you desire. I utilize a direct, honest, and genuine communication style in our relationship. My approach combines psychotherapy and the use of experiential therapy as a means of building communication, trust, and decision-making through individual and family treatment. My treatment also involves the partnership of animal assisted therapy with my Labrador Retriever.

For over 15 years of providing therapy, Christine enjoys helping individuals recover from issues concerning self-esteem, anxiety, addiction, trauma, codependency, adjustments to motherhood, life transitions, self-identity, and relationship dynamics.

Additionally, she is fully trained in Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, which helps to process trauma and unresolved emotions.

Hello, my name is Jennifer Lee Jackson, and I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor with over 14 years of clinical experience working with clients living with depression, anxiety, Bipolar Disorder, ADHD, Excoriation Disorder, addiction, unhelpful thinking styles, low self-esteem, codependency, poor boundary setting, PMDD, and trauma. I am an eclectic therapist who uses Cognitive Behavioral, Dialectical, Eclectic, Psychodynamic, and Couples Therapy during treatment with my clients. I believe in creating an egalitarian relationship with you to foster a safe and empowering environment for long-term recovery and stability.

Do you feel restless, sad, anxious? Do you find it difficult to let go of past hurts and regrets? Are you filled with worry and self-doubt? Do these struggles have you feeling overwhelmed, unfocused, and interfere with your current life circumstances and relationships? Are you ready and willing to take the steps toward healing and peace of mind?

You've landed on the right page if you want to work on difficult relationships with family, friends, work, lovers or yourself. Perhaps you want help: managing toxic stress, feeling more calm and confident, less lonely or resentful, managing conflict, exploring boundaries, overcoming codependency, changing counterproductive patterns, letting go of the need to control, learning how to identify and express yourself in an effective way, improving self-esteem, improving communication, and shifting away from insecure attachment styles. I offer both individual and couples therapy, and specialize in complex trauma and relationships.

Are you tired of feeling guilty, selfish, or mean every time you try to set a boundary? Ready to kiss people-pleasing, codependency, and toxic relationships goodbye? I help compassionate people discover how to set boundaries. Sometimes called "people-pleasers" or "co-dependents," I believe the real problem is one of boundaries... As in, we need to know how to find them! I've found that loving empathic people can THRIVE once we discover our boundaries (in a way that works for our compassionate hearts). Many of my clients are fellow counselors and psychologists, medical professionals, teachers, social workers, all with big hearts.

She also works with relationship partners (couples, thruples, polycules, etc.) on communicating needs, building emotional intimacy, exploring sexuality, and generally improving relationship health. Nicole can help guide you and provide tools to navigate challenging situations.

I am a counselor with wide-ranging experience offering in-person and online counseling. My life’s passion is helping teens and young adults to reclaim their emotional wellbeing and strengthen their relationships. Working on feeling connected, at peace, safe, and supported have proven to be cornerstones to lasting change and healthier living.

Life can be very challenging. If you are reading this you might be ready to talk. And talking helps. But, it isn't everything. Therapy is a puzzle that we never complete. Therapists sort through thoughts and ideas with you so things don't seem so overwhelming. Here we create a space to breath. I have been honored to work with clients who experience many issues such as anxiety, depression, poor familial relationships, loss, death, grief, divorce, commitment difficulties, loneliness, PTSD, difficulty sleeping, concentrating, focusing, ADD, eating disorders,codependency, isolation. And more.

I believe the therapeutic relationship can be a great meaningful experience and a tool you use throughout your life. I serve clients with a variety of needs including anxiety, depression, trauma, religious trauma, life transitions, codependency and family of origin. I enjoy working with women and young adults as we navigate life in an ever evolving world. I support my clients in building communication skills, bringing awareness to thought patterns and increasing confidence and self-esteem.

I am currently accepting new clients and couples for 2023! With a deep love for all people and an understanding of just how challenging it is to be human, I am prepared to create a warm and inviting space for you to explore and process complex feelings and heal painful wounds. My goal is to truly see you for who you are and ensure that you’re not alone in the process of self-discovery and healing. Through collaborative relationship building and strengths-based counseling, I will support you through life’s highs and lows and empower you to live life meaningfully, intentionally, and lovingly.

I work alongside clients to help them develop a more balanced, integrated, and grounded sense of self. I believe that through therapy, people 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."
