Hi, I’m E.C. Kissner Art Therapist | Creative Consultant + Career Coach for Arts + Innovation Entrepreneurs — If you’re someone who feels accomplished on the outside but stretched thin on the inside, you’re in the right place. Many of the people I work with are navigating burnout, transitions, stress, uncertainty about next steps, or a sense that life’s moving faster (or slower) than they can keep up with. You might want clarity, balance, and a way to turn insight into real-world change .... I specialize in creating a judgmental space that allows for both professional development & general life as well as mental health questions to unfold. — respectful of your identity, personal cultural context and lived experiences, while supporting you in moving from contemplating goals to moving them forward. Life imitates art so the trajectory to present will always be fully customized & right sized for your needs, working style and personal preferences.

Welcome! I’m Angela Chapman, and I’m here to support you on your journey!

I hold a Master of Social Work degree from Saint Louis University and am licensed and certified in Illinois. I bring more than 25 years of experience as a School Social Worker, where I have had the opportunity to support children, adolescents, adults, and families through a variety of emotional, behavioral, social, and relationship challenges.
I believe that every person is unique, and therapy should be tailored to you—not the other way around. I draw from a variety of therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Problem-Solving Therapy, Behavioral Management Therapy, Parent Management Training, Internal Family Systems Therapy, and Interpersonal Psychotherapy. Together, we can find the approaches and strategies that best fit your needs, strengths, and goals.
I believe in meeting you where you are, listening without judgment, and helping you recognize the strengths you already have. Whether you’re working through a difficult transition, managing emotions or behaviors, navigating relationships, or simply looking for support and a better understanding of yourself, I’m here to walk alongside you.
My hope is that therapy becomes a place where you feel heard, supported, and empowered to move forward with greater confidence and hope. I look forward to getting to know you and being part of your journey.
With more than 20 years of experience as a psychotherapist, I help children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families navigate life's challenges while building resilience, developing effective coping skills, and creating lasting change.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor in Illinois, Indiana, and Michigan, I believe that therapy is your space, shaped by what you need right now.
With 13+ years of experience in community mental health, residential treatment, and inpatient psychiatry, I provide therapy and parent coaching to:
- Children (5 years and older) & Families
- Young Adults & Adults
- Parents & Caregivers
I work alongside individuals navigating hard moments—especially those who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or powerless. Often, the people I work with are themselves experiencing or have a loved one impacted by:
- major life stress or conflict at home or school/work
- trauma
- grief and loss
- depression
- anxiety
- psychosis
- mania
- substance use
You are the expert on your own life and your own healing. My role is to meet you where you are and walk with you on your path, sometimes guiding, sometimes following, but mostly walking side-by-side.
Are you someone who has spent much of your life being strong for everyone else—caring for others, holding things together, and continuing to move forward even when you feel overwhelmed? Maybe somewhere along the way, you’ve lost touch with yourself or found yourself struggling with anxiety, depression, past trauma, grief, relationship challenges, or your own sense of self-worth.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor who works with adults and adolescents to better understand the experiences, emotions, and patterns that may be affecting their lives and relationships. I believe meaningful healing begins with greater self-awareness and understanding. My approach is warm, compassionate, trauma-informed, and collaborative, while also providing the support and gentle challenge needed for growth. Together, we can work toward healthier boundaries, stronger relationships, greater self-worth, and lasting change that helps you feel more grounded, confident, and connected to the life you want to create.
