What should people thinking about therapy with you, know about you?

I am a NYS Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. My main focus is helping couples who have become stuck. Watching them connect again reminds me why I chose this field. I also enjoy transitioning those recently divorced people by helping to fill the newly formed hole in their life. Watching them transform, gain strength, and smile again brings me so much joy. I have been working with people for five years and I enjoy what I do. I have met so many kind people who allowed me into their world. I also happen to be a kindergarten teacher during the day. Reach out, let’s get this started!

I am a licensed therapist working with adults with chronic illness. 

I have worked with people transitioning in life such as a new job, marriage, blended families, homelessness, and the symptoms they manifest as including anxiety and depression, addiction and much more. I have been providing individual and family counseling independently for 7 years. I received my Bachelor’s degree in Human Nutrition and Dietetics which has given me a wealth of knowledge in how your eating habits can also affect your mental well-being. My intention is to provide a structured and supportive environment for you to feel good about while meeting your goals that include a healthier mental and physical well-being. I look forward to working with you!

Hi, I'm glad you're here. The choice to start therapy isn't easy, but you are not alone on this journey. We live in a cyclical world where everything ebbs and flows and at some point in our lives, we may feel stuck or face certain challenges. We will encounter obstacles, conflicts, painful transitions, grief and loss or a sense of helplessness. As a result, we may feel alone, disconnected, angry, anxious, misunderstood and confused. In a safe environment of warmth, acceptance and compassion, I will work with you to explore and confront the emotional and interpersonal challenges that are bringing you pain or holding you back. By uncovering the obstacles holding you back, you can learn to make better choices, turn goals into realities, and find a greater sense of peace, purpose and freedom. I am passionate about helping people create and maintain deeper connections, with self and others while on their path to healing. I specialize in working with adults and couples on a wide array of issues, including depression, anxiety, life transitions, grief and loss, divorce, infidelity, trauma, body image, identity and self-esteem.  While I incorporate a variety of modalities into my work, both traditional and modern neuroscience and evidence-based, I practice through a holistic lens and a mindful perspective integrating the mind, body and spirit connection.  I received my Master degree in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University Graduate School of Education and Psychology, with an emphasis in Marriage Family Therapy and hold a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from UCLA. In addition, I received extensive training on mindfulness, cultural competency, Gottman Method Couples Therapy, and am currently in process of obtaining a Clinical Trauma Professional Certification.

Hi, my name is Agata and I am licensed clinical social worker offering telehealth services in the state of Illinois for teens and adults. I am passionate about working with first generation immigrants or children of immigrants and members of the BIPOC population. I strive to offer compassionate, empathic and relational care to everyone I work with. I have experience working with children, families and adults for issues with anxiety, depression, low self esteem, family conflict and trauma. I offer an in depth approach that really gets into the roots of why we seek out therapy and work collaboratively to ensure each individual feels heard and gets the most of our time together.

Therapist, coach, wife, mom - but most of all, human. As someone with personal experience living with chronic pain and illness, I know what it’s like to feel like you’re trying everything, doing everything right, and seemingly getting nowhere. If you’ve ever been told “your labs are completely normal” or “there’s nothing wrong with you” but you’re in constant pain and discomfort, you’ve come to the right place. My main work is with those who experience hard-to-diagnose health issues and syndromes. Things like gastro-intestinal problems, arthritic pain, back pain and other bodily aches, and genetic disorders are all within my wheelhouse. We work on things like managing stress, building healthier relationships (with romantic partners, friends, and healthcare professionals), and healing childhood emotional wounds. How I show up with clients stems not only from my lived experience but also from my decade of training with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. I am also trained in Year 1 of Somatic Experiencing, which means that I believe trauma lives in the body - not in your thoughts. There is a strong connection between chronic illness / chronic pain and the following emotional struggles: -Perfectionism -Procrastination / lack of motivation -Childhood emotional neglect -Finding it hard to relate to others -Feeling alone/isolated, even within your romantic relationship -Lack of meaning/purpose in life

Hello reader, it takes a lot of courage to want to do the healing work. If you are reading this that means you. I believe we all have the capabilities to change and grow given the right tools and nurturing. We all have inherent worth and a lot us forget that truth and take in distorted perceptions that really get in the way from what we truly desire, our jobs, our relationships. I combine a person centered approach using a trauma informed methods with cognitive based approaches. Some of these approaches include art, IFS, empty chair, and techniques of somatic experiencing. I also have experience exploring family of origin and inner child work. If this sounds like a great fit, I would love to coordinate with you.
