Hello! I’m Stephanie Darche, MA, Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor(LCPC). My therapeutic style is empowering, nonjudgmental, warm, genuine and down to earth.
I work with children, adolescents, and adults. I have experience in working with clients with concerns related to anxiety, depression, parenting, family conflict, communication, LGBTQI+, child/adolescent adjustment, behavior and mood disorders, trauma, self-harm, suicidal ideation, ADHD, self-esteem, and life transitions.
I understand what it's like to feel overwhelmed, stuck, or constantly on edge. Maybe you're emotionally drained, unmotivated, overthinking everything, or simply not feeling like yourself anymore. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, family conflict, divorce, co-parenting, work stress, grief, low self-esteem, and major life changes. I also specialize in supporting individuals who have experienced unhealthy relationships, domestic violence, emotional abuse, or narcissistic abuse. My goal is to provide a warm, down-to-earth, nonjudgmental, and safe space where you can feel understood, supported, and comfortable being yourself. You're not stuck. Healing is possible, and you do not have to go through it alone. When you're ready to take the next step, I'd be honored to support you on your journey.
I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, life transitions, and questions of identity and belonging. Separately, I bring specialized experience supporting people living with chronic and complex illness, as well as caregivers navigating the emotional impact of illness, uncertainty, grief, and caregiving. Whatever brings you to therapy, our work can be a space to slow down, better understand your experiences, and explore what you want for yourself moving forward.
Hi, I'm Tania, and I'm so glad you're here. I work with adults ages 18 to 65 and seniors 65 and older navigating chronic health conditions, anxiety, and depression, along with grief, identity, and the ups and downs of illness or aging. I also welcome LGBTQ+ clients into a space built on warmth and acceptance. Wherever you're starting from, there's room for you here, and support is closer than you think.
I have been a therapist for over twenty five years with a varied background including hospice, nursing homes, home care and individual counseling settings. I became a licensed, clinical social worker after graduating from the University of IL-Urbana 30 years ago.
Hi, I'm Kendra. If life has taken a turn you did not plan for, whether that is struggling
to grow your family, an anxiety that will not quiet down, or a relationship that feels
stuck, you do not have to sort it out alone. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in
Illinois, and I work with adults and families who are carrying more than they let on. My
belief is simple: empathy, empowerment, and collaboration are what make therapy
work. You bring what you are facing, and we find the path forward together. When you
are ready, I would be glad to meet you.
I have been a licensed clinical social worker for over 30 years bringing broad experience and perspective to my sessions. I believe that joining with a client is paramount to establishing trust. Trusting that your provider cares for you, has your best interest at heart and provides you with reasonable and doable solutions is key to growth. If we don’t connect, no harm/no foul. We agree to move on and I will assist with that process, if necessary.
My name is Alicia Ali. I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with over a decade of experience in my field. I enjoy working with people of color and members of the LGBTQ+ community as they navigate life’s challenges and rediscover their best self. I specialize in helping clients manage work/life stressors, anxiety, depression, and relationship issues.
