Jennifer Kovachevich

Therapist

Virtual • Plainfield, IL


I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor with a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Benedictine University. I have been working in private practice for over 10 years, helping adolescents and adults navigate life’s challenges and create meaningful, lasting change.

My areas of specialization include trauma and couples counseling, and I have a particular passion for working with women. I understand that women often carry many different roles and responsibilities, and sometimes lose sight of their own needs in the process. I enjoy helping women work through anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, and the many unexpected circumstances that can leave us feeling stuck or overwhelmed.

E.T. Townsend

Therapist

Virtual • Illinois


I offer support and skills to those exploring identity, intimacy, or relational complexity—whether in gender, sexuality, kink, or deocolonized relationships. They may be sitting with grief, unraveling the impact of trauma, or feeling the weight of past experiences in their body. They long for connection but struggle with vulnerability, trust, or belonging. Some feel stuck in cycles of overwhelm, while others are questioning the stories they’ve been told about who they are. They seek a space where they can be seen without judgment, process their experiences, and make sense of the systems shaping their lives.

Find the right couples therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your relationship — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Aurora

Finding couples therapists in Aurora starts with knowing what you and your partner want to work on together. Couples counseling in Aurora may support communication patterns, conflict, trust after infidelity, major life changes, parenting disagreements, or intimacy concerns. Not all therapists have specific training in couples work, so look for licensed marriage and family therapists or therapists who list couples-focused approaches, such as the Gottman Method or emotion-focused therapy, in their bios.

In a mid-sized city like Aurora, the right match often depends on both clinical fit and logistics. You may want a therapist in Aurora who offers in-person sessions near home or work, while virtual appointments can make it easier to coordinate two schedules. As you compare options for couples therapy in Aurora, review availability, session structure, and whether the therapist offers a brief initial consultation. Reading bios can also show how each therapist works with partners, handles shared goals, and structures sessions.

Couples therapy in Aurora can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce out-of-pocket costs and understand your estimated session price before you book. Headway helps you compare therapists who are accepting new patients, review insurance information, read detailed profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
