I blend evidence-based tools with real-world conversations to help you feel understood while learning how to cope, heal, and grow.

Hello Fellow Human,
I am a sex and relationship therapist with a focus on BDSM and kink. Clients have found that my approach being direct with care and affirming have aided in reaching their goals. I believe that connection with others can lead to healing and use a collaborative approach.
My name is Katie and I have been a counselor for 15 years. I specialize in relationship concerns, including dating and singleness, marriage, and divorce care. I also work with adults and adolescents experiencing anxiety/panic, depression, ADHD, trauma-related concerns, and conflicts related to school, work and home.
My name is Najm Zaman, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges, heal from trauma, and build lasting resilience!
My professional journey spans over 15 years across clinical practice, healthcare operations, and community leadership. I hold both a Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) and a Master of Social Work (MSW) from Adelphi University. Throughout my career, I have served in diverse roles—from supervising foster care programs to leading community-based non-profit organizations and wellness initiatives. This background allows me to understand my clients not just in isolation, but within the broader context of their environments, families, and communities.
While I work with a wide range of individuals, my primary areas of specialization include:
- Trauma and Stressor-Related Disorders
- Anxiety and Mood Management
- Life Transitions and Identity Development
- Youth, Young Adult, and Family Dynamics
- Relationships and Breakups
True wellness is a commitment to your best self. But what do you do if you don’t know what that looks like? When is the last time you had the space to reflect on your life and goals? Do you find yourself unbalanced due to life’s changes and in need of a reset? Meet with me! Let’s develop a plan for you to see yourself clearly. I utilize client-centered approaches with science-supported interventions. I won’t leave your wellness up to chance, let’s work together to make a change.
I'm a licensed psychologist and consider myself a generalist with a wide variety of clinical interests including issues related to family of origin, self esteem, identity development, depression, anxiety, stress, and interpersonal relationships.
Attending to mental health can have such a profound effect on quality of life and ability to function! Yet, it can seem so vulnerable and scary to make that first appointment, even if we know it will help. Great job leaning into that discomfort, prioritizing your needs, and pushing toward growth!
If you're struggling with addiction, carrying the weight of complex trauma, or trying to cope while managing a chronic health condition, I want you to know there's a way forward — and you don't have to walk it alone. I'm a Certified Drug and Alcohol Counselor (CADC) with over 16 years of experience across private practice, residential substance abuse treatment, medical social work, and the non-profit world. I've sat with people in their hardest, most overwhelming moments, and I bring that same steady, non-judgmental presence to every session.
Much of my work centers on substance use and recovery, complex trauma, and the emotional toll of chronic medical conditions. Whether you're in the thick of a crisis or finally ready to address something you've carried for years, I'll meet you exactly where you are — with compassion, real tools, and zero judgment.
Greetings.
Taking first steps towards therapy is a brave decision and I'm glad you're here. In my practice I provide a safe, non-judgmental space to help you navigate life's challenges.
I'm a LCSW and I received my master's degree at Our Lady of the Lakes University in San Antonio, TX.
I specialize in anxiety, depression, and Christian counseling, however there are other areas of specialties I engage with individuals.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Northbrook, IL
Searching for therapists in Northbrook starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. You may want help with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, or life transitions. As you compare options for Northbrook counseling, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, therapy approach, and experience match what you want to focus on. A profile that explains how a therapist works can help you understand whether their style feels aligned before you book.
Northbrook has local therapy options, but availability can vary in smaller suburban markets. Virtual care can expand your search beyond nearby offices while keeping you connected with a therapist licensed in Illinois. You can also narrow your options by appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, whether they offer a free phone consultation, and the type of care they provide. Reading therapist bios can help you compare communication style, specialties, and session structure in one place.
Therapy in Northbrook can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before you start. Headway helps you find therapists who match your preferences, may accept your plan, and offer virtual or in-person appointments. You can review profiles, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose a therapist in Northbrook when you are ready.
