Are you looking for a therapist who understands your culture and speaks your language? I can help. I am fluent in Spanish, Polish, Brazilian Portuguese, French, and German.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Alcohol and Other Drug Abuse Counselor with 40 years of clinical experience. I work with adults, children, and adolescents, and I value each person’s cultural background, identity, and lived experience.
I believe that therapy works best when people feel understood, respected and safe. I have over 20 year of experience helping adults navigate trauma, depression, anxiety, identity exploration, grief/loss, life transitions and relationship challenges. Much of my career has been devoted to working with veterans and individuals who have faced difficult or traumatic experiences. I strongly believe in establishing a relationship of equals and mutual respect between therapist and client; one that leads to a guided journey of self-discovery and change.
As a therapist with five years of experience, I have worked with people facing a variety of struggles including depression, anxiety, and stress, as well as life transitions, surviving past trauma and abuse, feeling suicidal, and states of mania and psychosis. Our therapy will be a warm and introspective space where you can expect to be treated with dignity. I affirm LGBTQ+ identities; I welcome persons of different cultures, races, nationalities, and religious beliefs. Above all, I look forward to knowing you as a unique and singular person.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Chicago
Chicago has a large community of therapists, from the Loop and River North to Logan Square, Hyde Park, and neighborhoods across the city. That range of options can help you find a strong fit, but it also helps to start with your specific needs. You may want support for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship concerns, life transitions, or work stress. Look for a therapist whose listed specialties, training, and approach match what you want to address. Their bio can also show whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.
When comparing therapists in Chicago, practical fit matters along with clinical fit. In-person care may work well if you prefer an office near home, work, transit, or school. Virtual appointments may be easier if your schedule changes week to week or you want more location flexibility within Illinois. As you narrow your search, review appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand how each therapist structures sessions and communicates with new clients.
Therapy in Chicago can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find Chicago area therapists who are accepting new patients, offer virtual or in-person care, and take insurance. You can add your insurance details to see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, then review bios and book directly when you’re ready.
