Hi there! I’m Edith, but please, call me Edie. As an out and proud transgender woman, I am excited to work with the LGBT community through sexuality- and gender-affirming treatment. Are you struggling with your gender and/or sexuality? I would love to walk with you as we collaboratively work to find answers, solutions, and resilience.
I'm Simone Shepardson, a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor with nearly two decades of experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families. I've worked across a range of clinical settings — inpatient care, partial hospitalization programs, and outpatient therapy — which has given me a deep understanding of how to meet clients wherever they are in their journey. I specialize in working with gifted populations, high-functioning autism, anxiety, ADHD, and family dynamics. I've served over 10 years on the board of the Illinois Association for Play Therapy and previously acted as a clinical advisor to the West Suburban Bipolar Group in DuPage County. Outside of my practice, I'm a professionally trained singer and musician, a dancer, and a devoted wife and mother. I bring my whole self — warmth, creativity, and genuine care — into the work I do with each client.
Hi - I'm Gina, a licensed LCSW in Illinois with 15 years of professional work experience and a MSW from the University of Chicago. I have experience in helping clients (teens and adults) with stress, anxiety, chronic illnesses, midlife crisis, trauma, abuse, & coping with grief and loss. I use several treatment modalities to include Cognitive Behavioral, Trauma Informed Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Emotion-Focused Counseling. I also offer clinical supervision.
Hi, I’m Cherie. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and EMDR-trained therapist. I work with teens and adults who are feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve them. Maybe you're constantly on edge, overthinking everything, or finding it hard to slow down. Or maybe you’ve been feeling flat, unmotivated, or like you're just going through the motions. These experiences often trace back to things your nervous system picked up on — ways it learned to protect you in stressful or painful situations.
I help people work through painful memories, low self-esteem, and the weight of depression—like feeling numb, exhausted, stuck, or hard on yourself. We'll explore the parts of you carrying that pain and move at a pace that feels right, whether you're ready for deep healing or just need a safe place to land.
If you’re feeling ready—or just curious—I’d be honored to support you on your healing path.
Outside of therapy, I love curling up with a good book, finding design inspiration (I have a soft spot for cozy interiors), caring for my houseplants, and spending time with my dog, Magnolia Grace—who may occasionally drop in for a virtual session cameo.
As a board-certified PMHNP, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and stability in life. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so congratulations on taking that step!
Hello, I am Pamela "Paige" Lees. I have been a licensed therapist for 30 years. I have worked with a wide variety of people and together tackled a multitude of life's problems. I have a master's degree in clinical psychology from the University of Illinois and a bachelor's degree in Psychology from Eastern Illinois University. I enjoy working with individuals and I specialize family problems of all kinds.
Hello,
I'm Nick, and I'm delighted to extend a warm welcome to you. I'm committed to helping you find a path to better emotional well-being and personal growth.
Life can throw its curveballs, and it's natural to feel a bit lost at times. As a licensed therapist, my goal is to provide you with a safe space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings. I believe in the potential for positive change that exists within all of us.
I don't have a physical office space at this time. I can see clients virtually, or I can come to your home or office.
Please reach out to me at (319) 481-8505 or [email protected] for any questions!

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Schaumburg, IL
Searching for therapists in Schaumburg starts with finding the kind of support that fits your needs. A therapist may help with concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare Schaumburg therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties match what you want to focus on. Their profile can also show whether they use approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy, or couples counseling.
Schaumburg has local therapy options, but availability can vary by schedule, specialty, and whether you want to meet in person. Virtual therapy can expand your choices across Illinois, which may help if you need evening appointments, a specific therapeutic approach, or a therapist who is accepting new patients. Before booking, review each therapist’s bio for details on their communication style, session structure, free phone consultations, and experience with concerns like marriage counseling, family stress, or work-related stress.
Therapy in Schaumburg can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Nationally, Headway partners with a wide range of insurance plans, and you can verify your benefits to see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. You can browse therapists in Schaumburg, review profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
