Teletherapy for Illinois

Thank you for taking the time to learn more about me! My ideal clients are looking for a strength-based approach where they are more than a "psychiatric diagnosis." My clients come from many backgrounds - they are children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families - and are dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, women’s issues, anger management, ADHD, autistic spectrum disorder, addiction issues, couples therapy, and working through LGBTQ+ issues. I partner with my clients in the change process and empower them through using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and other tailored approaches.

Navigating psychological distress can disrupt our ability to lead productive, prosperous lives. Whether you're grappling with grief, managing a chronic health condition, experiencing relationship or parenting challenges, questioning faith and spirituality, or facing issues related to sexuality and intimacy, finding relief is paramount.

There’s no doubt that daily life situations, transitions and challenging relationships can be triggering. These triggering events and relationships can cause emotional flooding. Emotional flooding is the body’s response to being overly aroused by physical and emotional sensations which could lead to “shutdown” mode. This can look like an inability to concentrate, being mentally withdrawing, having a fight-flight-freeze reaction, intense anger, toxic stress, paralyzing anxiety, grief or depression which are impacting your quality of life and ability to maintain optimal functioning.

Finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming. I'm here for you. I believe in a collaborative approach to treatment where there is a sense of mutual respect, empathy, self-exploration, and empowerment. I work with you to build an authentic, honest, and transparent connection. I also value a culturally sensitive and relational approach that fosters a safe, non-judgmental, trusting, warm and supportive space where you can be vulnerable, feel heard, feel seen, and feel accepted being your true authentic self.

Nervous or scared about therapy and not sure where to start? Constantly tired of feeling the way that you do? Feeling numb and detached from the world around you? You're not alone - I'm here to support you! My goal is to understand who you are, what matters to you, and what challenges you're facing without judgement. I specialize in trauma with particular focus on BIPOC individuals who have experienced cultural, racial, generational trauma and immigration stress, LGBTQ+ folx on the journey of self-discovery and acceptance, and those who have/are experiencing relationship-based violence like narcissistic abuse or sexual trauma.

Whether you are coping with a transition, anxiety, depression, or other challenges, I can work with you to increase positive healthy behaviors, reduce stress, improve your mood, and enhance communication skills. I am passionate about helping you find opportunities to learn and grow from every experience, even a negative one. Operating from a strength-based perspective, I help you understand and process your experiences, as well as cope with life events outside of therapy.

It is my passion to help individuals navigate life’s challenges and achieve their therapeutic goals. With an intuitive and compassionate approach, I strive to create a safe and supportive environment where clients can feel heard and understood. I recognize the power in the client-therapist relationship, and I work to create meaningful, trusting connections with my clients. My therapeutic approach is holistic and culturally sensitive, drawing on a variety of evidence-based techniques including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy, emotion-focused therapy, and mindfulness-based approaches.

My mission is to provide the highest quality mental health care in a compassionate and culturally sensitive way to help individuals, groups, and families achieve their personal goals. I use client-centered and evidence-based approaches to address the unique needs of my clients and work collaboratively to help each client to achieve a healthy, balanced lifestyle. I specialize in treating a variety of areas such as anxiety, depression, PTSD/ trauma, and stress management and provide services to children, adolescents, and adults. I tailor treatment to your specific needs and enjoy helping and empowering youth and young adults.

I am a bilingual and bicultural therapist. I have been providing mental health services for 20+ years serving both children and adults. Throughout my career as an experienced Latina therapist, my passion has been collaborating with my clients to bring positive changes to their lives.

Hola! My name is Sonia and I am a bilingual trauma therapist, fluent in both Spanish and in English. I am culturally sensitive and have had history in the lower economic side of the spectrum. Because of this, I try to reach those that feel misunderstood like I once did. No need to change your language or terminology. Just say what you have to say. Let’s work today for a better tomorrow.

Culturally Competent Therapy specializes in building trust and a therapeutic alliance with their clients, so they are prepared to do the work. Clients, often including licensed therapists, feel accepted to be themselves in a safe environment. Individualized tailored approaches include culturally sensitive cognitive-behavioral and psychodynamic approaches to treatment that may challenge the client's belief system. I enjoy helping clients of all backgrounds discover the root of their problems and understanding the value of cultural factors such as family, race, socio-economic status, work/career demands, and integration of faith.

As a modern therapist, I provide culturally sensitive and thoughtful therapy to help individuals and couples. I understand how hard it can be to find a therapist that seems relatable or trustworthy. I work particularly well with individuals navigating trauma, relationships, and identity looking for a therapist that "gets it". This may be an overwhelming point in your life, but pursuing psychotherapy can be one of the most transformative experiences you can take to heal & grow.

Change and growth happen within a safe and secure relationship. I am here to walk alongside you, offering compassionate curiosity, a safe space to explore your inner life, and deep insight. Wherever you are in your mental health journey, I’ll meet you there and together we can embrace the ambiguity of the human experience with humor, a sense of play, and compassion.

I offer virtual psychotherapy for adolescents and adults in Illinois and Arizona. My holistic and eclectic treatment approach draws from strength-based, cognitive-behavioral, positive psychology, culturally sensitive, and mindfulness-based theories to understand problems and bring about growth and change. I believe every individual is unique and treatment is tailored to the individual’s needs. I value client self-determination and feel empowering clients to participate in their treatment process actively is essential. Sessions focus on building on an individual’s strength and capacity for change while addressing the stressor.

Are you struggling to connect with your teen as they make their way into the world? Does your teen appear to be struggling to adjust to life transitions, including added responsibilities or finding new communities? As a family therapist I am specifically trained to work relationally, it’s where I am most passionate! I have experience and enjoy working with relationships of all kinds, families with teens. I work collaboratively, providing a safe, culturally sensitive, and encouraging virtual space to explore all of the stressors that are impacting you.

I believe we all have the innate ability to cope and adapt and I also recognize that these coping behaviors and adaptations can sometimes stop serving us in the way they once did. My aim is to better understand your unique context to help you deepen your self-awareness, develop self-acceptance and discover, together, your path toward the outcomes you are seeking. I believe each person’s story is sacred and that lasting change happens within the context of relationship. I seek to create a person-centered environment where people feel comfortable to heal or grow at their pace in the way that fits their specific needs.

Moving intentionally in the direction of change isn't always as straight-forward as we would like. You, your child, or your family may be facing a period of difficulty and struggling with coping, connection, and the way forward. My role is to assist by walking alongside you and guiding you and your family in seeing things that may be too overwhelming to face alone. Together, we will work on making sense of what happened, is happening, help you find clarity, and (re)build a sense of internal agency and purpose as well as relational cohesion and safety.

An exciting moment happens in therapy when a personal challenge is examined from a renewed perspective. In that moment, what once seemed difficult can take on new meaning. It has the potential to become a defining moment that inspires continued change, growth, and healing. Furthering this process is the potential realization that these ideas were already innate and just awaiting connection.
