Therapist

Virtual • Illinois


Hi, I'm Makeda (Kee)! I work with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, stress, relationship challenges, trauma, grief, and major life transitions. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck in patterns you want to change, struggling in your relationships, or simply looking for a better way forward, therapy can give you the space to understand what's going on and figure out what comes next.

With 7 years of experience, I bring a warm, down-to-earth, and collaborative approach to therapy. We'll look at what's contributing to the challenges you're facing, build on the strengths you already have, and develop practical ways to help you feel more confident, emotionally balanced, and connected to the life you want. My goal is for therapy to feel supportive and genuine while still helping you create meaningful change.

Therapist

I'm a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor with a background that includes years of work with people navigating some of the hardest chapters of their lives — including incarcerated individuals, people struggling with addiction, and those carrying cultural weight that doesn't show up in a standard intake form. I'm South Asian, I grew up navigating two worlds, and that shapes how I show up for clients who've had to figure things out without a clear map. I don't do therapy with a clipboard. I'm direct, I'm real, and I'm genuinely interested in what's underneath the surface.
