Hello, I’m Michael Treptow, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who supports children, teens, and adults through life’s challenges. I take a warm and collaborative approach, helping clients build coping skills, increase self-awareness, and feel more confident in managing stress and emotions. I specialize in anxiety, depression, ADHD, life transitions, and school or family-related concerns. My goal is to meet you where you are and work together to create meaningful, realistic change.
Great to meet you. As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I work to create a space where you feel seen, heard, and supported. My approach is warm, holistic, and open-minded, and I believe care works best when it is personalized to your needs, goals, and day-to-day reality.
I support clients navigating anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, PTSD, sleep concerns, OCD, panic, eating concerns, and anger or impulse-related challenges. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply ready for things to feel more manageable, my goal is to help you better understand what is going on and build a path forward that feels both realistic and empowering.
I love helping both children and adults to cope better with stress, feel more hopeful about the future, and to process difficult moments from the past. Many of my clients have the goal to start living a life that aligns with their values; getting closer to what really matters to them. I see the goal of therapy as helping a client to live, work, learn, and play more freely. That might mean helping a child be brave enough to speak in front of their classmates or help an adult learn to set boundaries in their relationships.
I'm a lifelong learner who has many specialties, but my primary specialties would include Exposure and Response Prevention (Anxiety and OCD), Cognitive Processing Therapy (PTSD), ACT (Depression), Theraplay (children 0-5), treatments for neurodiverse peoples (ADHD and ASD), and Psychological Testing. I can also offer services in Spanish and English.
I appreciate the bravery it took to search for a therapist, and I hope I get the chance to help you and your family carve the next step forward. You are welcome to message me with questions or to set up a quick consult call to see what it'd be like to work with me. I guarantee I will respond to your inquiry within 2 business days.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Aurora
Finding the right OCD therapist in Aurora starts with understanding what kind of care you need. OCD care may include therapeutic approaches such as ERP, a specialized form of CBT, depending on an individual's needs and a licensed provider's assessment. Some providers are trained in therapeutic techniques that may involve gradually working through triggering situations or thoughts as part of an individualized treatment plan developed with a licensed professional. Some people also work with a psychiatrist for medication management alongside therapy. When searching for a provider, look for someone who specifically lists OCD experience — general anxiety training is not the same as specialized OCD care.
Aurora is part of Kane County, with many residents also connected to neighboring communities like Naperville, North Aurora, and Oswego. Whether you prefer in-person sessions close to home or virtual appointments that fit a busy schedule, having options matters. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their clinical approach, the types of OCD they work with, and whether their style feels like a match before you commit to a session.
Therapy in the Aurora area can be expensive without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to lower what you pay per session. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find an OCD specialist who is both the right clinical fit and covered by your plan.
