Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Springfield, IL

​I support adults navigating anxiety, perfectionism, self-criticism, and major life transitions. I have a special interest in working with women through the transition into motherhood, including fertility journeys, pregnancy, postpartum, and the evolving identity that comes with this new chapter of life. Through a compassionate and collaborative approach, I help clients develop meaningful tools, gain clarity, and move through change with greater steadiness and self-compassion.

I offer therapy in both English and Spanish.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who believes therapy works best when it meets you where you are. Since 2017, I’ve worked with Veterans experiencing a wide range of mental health concerns, including severe mental illness, substance use, anxiety, depression, trauma, and the challenges that can come with major life transitions. I have also worked as a private practice therapist since 2024.

I’m Annmarie O’Connell, a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with over 15 years of experience supporting individuals through some of life’s toughest moments. My background is rooted in community mental health, where I’ve worked with people from all walks of life dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, and major life transitions.

I’m also trained in Brainspotting, a powerful therapeutic technique that taps into the brain-body connection to help clients process and release deeply held emotional pain. This approach, along with my real-world experience, allows me to support clients in a holistic, meaningful way. My work is deeply personal to me—because I’ve experienced firsthand how life-changing therapy can be.

Hello there and welcome!

I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) dedicated to guiding individuals through life's complexities. With a passion for helping others, my goal as a therapist is to provide support for those facing challenges such as anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns.

You are not what has happened to you. No need to unpack it all on your own.

I have provided counseling services for over 20 years, helping clients work through trauma, PTSD, anxiety, panic, stress, family challenges, and women’s issues. I specialize in supporting people who feel stuck in painful memories, overwhelmed by anxiety, or disconnected from themselves after difficult life experiences. My approach is compassionate, non-judgmental, and deeply respectful of each person’s story. I believe healing often involves more than traditional talk therapy, which is why I incorporate approaches that support the mind, body, and spirit. I am an EMDRIA Certified Therapist and a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, and I use EMDR, somatic therapy, attachment-based therapy, interpersonal therapy, and other trauma-informed approaches to help clients move toward relief and healing. When we work together, you can expect a caring space where you are accepted as you are and supported at a pace that feels safe.

I approach therapy in a collaborative and compassionate way, creating a safe space where clients can feel supported as they explore their inner world. I believe that each client is the expert of their own life, and my role is to guide, support, and provide tools to help you connect with your strengths and insights. My work is trauma-informed and integrates a variety of techniques, including internal family systems, somatic methods, inner child work, strengths-based narratives, CBT, experiential approaches, and clinical hypnosis.

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 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.

I am a board-certified registered art therapist and licensed clinical professional counselor. I have worked in non-profit organizations, providing counseling services to young children adolescents, and adults.
