Everyone deserves a safe, compassionate, nonjudgmental space to work through the life's challenges. I value culturally competent and inclusive care in my practice. I help teens and adults working through issues with relationships, anxiety, depression, complex trauma, OCD/uncontrollable ruminative thoughts, mood disorders, life transitions, feelings of panic, or disordered eating patterns. My specialization lies in unraveling the roots of unhelpful patterns, addressing their symptoms, and working through barriers to create meaningful, lasting change.

I believe that understanding one's perception is essential to understanding one's thoughts, feelings and behaviors. In order to make positive changes, it is very important to understand how one perceives experiences and the reasons why. Therefore, I feel that increased self-awareness and personal growth are integral parts of the counseling process.

Deciding you need therapy can be a tough process. I want you to feel safe to explore emotional issues that feel overwhelming to you. I believe the counseling relationship should be one where you and I form real connection-and that this connection is where the foundation of healing can begin. If you're not feeling the connection with me, please don't give up finding therapeutic help! A good fit is out there.

Hello! My name is Liz Chan and I am Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor. I received my Masters degree in Clinical Mental Health with a graduate certificate in Trauma-Informed Counseling from Northern Illinois University. I also received additional certification through PESI as a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. My education also included interning with a domestic violence agency as a sexual assault and crisis counselor. I have experience working with individuals and families from a variety of backgrounds on issues such as self-esteem, relationships and gender specific issues.

As we walk through different seasons of our lives, we may all need caring individuals that can offer interventions, help and/or support during our circumstances. Going further, I believe that we were innately created to be in covenant or relationship with our creator, our family or other social circles that we choose to surround ourselves with. However, it is a very personal choice as to how each one of us chooses to go about this path. My strong belief in this basic aspect of life gave birth to Covenant Intuition Center.
