Therapy for Adults & Couples

You do not have to figure it out alone. Therapy is a space to slow down, release, heal, and begin again. Intentional Counseling Chicago is a purposeful, collaborative space to heal wounds, grow beyond unhealthy patterns, and meet your truest self.

I believe healing happens within us, but it shapes everything around us.

  • You are carrying more than you've let on. Sometimes it's one thing, sometimes it's everything at once

  • You feel anxious, overwhelmed, or just stuck

  • Life shifted or shattered and you don't feel like yourself

  • You have been strong for everyone else and you're running on empty

  • Your relationships have created wounds or keep repeating the same cycles

  • You just know something needs to change, including how you take care of yourself ​​

​​

Whatever brought you here, this is a warm, culturally affirming space. My presence is understanding yet direct, respectfully challenging any blind spots so you can move forward. I naturally add a touch of humor when invited.

 

We work through it together as you become the best version of yourself. Ready to take your seat?

You may be here because:

Individual Therapy

We will begin by processing what's weighing on you. You may develop coping strategies, identify and enhance your strengths, end unhealthy patterns, and show up for yourself differently. Either way, this healing journey is tailored specifically to you.

Couples Therapy

Relationships can hold both joy and complex pain. We create a safe space to understand unhealed wounds, break unhelpful patterns, address conflicts, and clarify the emotional dynamics within your relationship. You can then make grounded choices for yourselves and your relationship.

Areas of Support 

Depression & Anxiety

Life can feel heavy when you're in survival mode or your mind is constantly running. We work to quiet the noise, overwhelm, and move towards emotional calm.

  • Coping Skills

  • Stress Management/Burnout

  • Self-Esteem

  • Grief

Identity & Life Transitions

When roles shift, values evolve, or cultural expectations weigh heavily, it can be hard to know who you are outside of what's expected of you. I help you reclaim who you really are when life changes.

  • Racial Identity

  • Chronic Illness

  • Women’s Issues

  • Spirituality

Relational & Complex Trauma

Past experiences should not dictate your future relationships, self-worth, or daily life. You will enhance understanding of patterns, heal wounds, and move towards the life and relationships you deserve.

  • Relationship Issues

  • Family Conflict

  • Peer Relationships

  • Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (C-PTSD)

Tailored Care

MY APPROACH

Healing is as unique as each person. Drawing from CBT and a range of integrative frameworks, I design care around what you specifically need.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

A structured method for challenging negative thought processes and modifying behaviors to navigate life stressors.

Integrative Therapy

Utilizing a robust toolkit, I incorporate other evidence-based approaches for your healing journey, including: 
 

  • Internal Family Systems (IFS)

  • Acceptance and Commitment (ACT)

  • Emotionally Focused

  • Gottman Method

  • Emotional Freedom Technique ("Tapping")
     

  • Trauma-Focused

  • Strengths-Based 
     

I also integrate tools from Narrative Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and somatic approaches, as needed.

What To Expect From Your First Session

You can expect a welcoming environment focused entirely on your well-being. I holistically explore your experiences to understand what support you need most. Together, we will outline your particular therapeutic goals.
