Find a therapist in Illinois — covered by insurance

I personally know what it is like to struggle with anxiety and despair. I also know what it is like to go to therapy and to get little benefit from it. Many years ago, my emotional life changed dramatically when I stumbled onto resources that addressed my actual needs, and subsequently I devoted myself to a career promoting better mental health practices than I was taught when I was young.

Simply put, I teach people six interrelated psychological skills that you can use to transform your life. If all you want to do is explore the past, I'm not your best option - I focus on the past only enough to get us moving toward the future you want. I love to help people develop psychological superpowers that they can use to get the life they always hoped for, starting from where they are now and moving forward into a future they find worthwhile.

I was born and raised in the Chicagoland area. My undergraduate B.A and graduate M.A. training took place at Wheaton College. Following graduate school in the midwest, I moved to the west coast, where I attended the California School of Professional Psychology. Here, I earned a M.A in applied psychology and Psy. D. in clinical psychology with a dual emphasis in forensics and family therapy. My research consisted of working with high risk sexual offenders. Following my time on the west coast, I worked as a Staff Psychologist and Assistant Professor at a local university. In my free time, I train in combat arts and play guitar (try at least ;-).

With over 12 years of experience in nursing and behavioral health, I provide comprehensive psychiatric evaluations and medication management for adolescents, and adults ages 12 and older. My clinical interests include anxiety disorders, depression, bipolar disorder, trauma-related conditions, stress-related concerns, and mood disorders.

You’ve already taken an important step by being here. I’m Selena Hughes, a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, and I work with adults facing substance use, anxiety, depression, PTSD, bipolar disorder, grief, and trauma. Together, we’ll make sense of what you’re going through, better understand your patterns, and help you reconnect with your strengths so you can feel more hopeful and in control.

If you’ve been carrying stress, trauma, or emotional weight that’s starting to show up in your thoughts, relationships, or daily life, it can be hard to know where to start. I work with adolescents, young adults, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, relationship stress, and the impact of past experiences. You might notice yourself overthinking, feeling easily overwhelmed, shutting down emotionally, or reacting in ways that don’t quite make sense to you. Many of my clients come in feeling stuck but ready to better understand themselves and move forward in a different way.

Therapy with me is warm, collaborative, and empowering, paired with a dose of humor. I partner with clients to dismantle the subconscious patterns that hinder progress.

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.

Starting therapy can feel vulnerable, and I believe it is important to have a therapist with whom you feel comfortable being yourself. I work with adults and young adults experiencing anxiety and stress, relationship difficulties, life transitions, cultural adjustment, and concerns related to eating and body image. I value understanding how culture, identity, family, and life experiences shape each person’s experience.

Outside of therapy, I enjoy traveling, gardening, watching movies and musicals, and spending time with friends and family.
