If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward, you’re not alone and you don’t have to navigate it on your own. Life’s challenges can sometimes leave us feeling drained, anxious, or disconnected from ourselves and others. Therapy can be a space to slow down, reflect, and begin creating meaningful change. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with experience in hospitals, residential programs, community mental health, and private practice. I work with individuals navigating stress, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and concerns related to disordered eating, body image, or weight management.
Since 1999, I have devoted my career to helping couples, individuals, and families build healthier, more fulfilling relationships. I specialize in couples therapy, premarital counseling, healing after infidelity, communication difficulties, recurring conflict, intimacy concerns, parenting challenges, blended families, and navigating separation or divorce. I also help individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, anger, grief, low self esteem, and relationship concerns.
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, a Certified Gottman Seven Principles Leader, an AAMFT Approved Supervisor, and a Board Certified TeleMental Health provider. I earned my bachelor’s degree in psychology and master’s degree in child development and family studies from Purdue University.
I am a licensed therapist at Ananda Holistic Healing LLC; where I provide personalized therapy that addresses mind, body, and spirit. I combine traditional psychotherapy with holistic orientations-- including spirituality based counseling with an inner child and trauma-informed lens, somatic practices, relational skill-building and wellness lifestyle support. I create an individualized approach for each client. My goal is to help you find clarity, balance, and sustainable growth in your life.
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.
Welcome!
I’m Kendra, a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Illinois and a Certified Somatic Therapy Practitioner. With over 10 years of experience, I support individuals in reconnecting with themselves and navigating anxiety, stress, and life transitions with greater clarity and ease.
My approach blends somatic (mind-body) therapy with nature-based practices to support deeper awareness, emotional regulation, and lasting change. I believe healing happens when we learn to listen to our bodies, not just our thoughts. I am committed to creating a safe, affirming space for LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC individuals, where your full identity and experiences are welcomed and respected.
I get it — because I’ve lived it, both professionally and personally.
Before becoming a therapist, I spent over two decades in the corporate world, most of it in consulting, helping people and organizations improve performance and well-being. I also built and ran a company of my own, so I understand firsthand the pressure, high stakes, and constant push to hold it all together that come with building something from the ground up.
And in my own relationships, I know what it takes to communicate honestly, navigate conflict, and stay connected — the same things I help my clients work through.
I work with individuals and couples of all ages on anxiety, depression, burnout, executive and career stress, life transitions, relationship issues, and communication skills. I’m deeply focused on the connection between physical and mental health — sleep, movement, nutrition, purpose, and connection aren’t side notes to me, they’re central to how I think about wellbeing.
I hold a BA in Psychology, a Master’s in Industrial-Organizational Psychology, and an MSW, but what matters most is how I show up: fully present, genuinely empathetic, and committed to being real with my clients — even when honesty is the harder thing to offer.
Outside the office, I’m a long-distance runner, a music lover, a cook, and a lifelong collector of sports and trading cards.
Hi there, my name’s Ephraim and I'm a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 20+ years of experience. My specialties consist of relationships, men’s issues, career counseling, and psychosomatic illnesses.
Whether it's individuals or couples, I'm happy to get to work with whomever comes my way. I do my best to facilitate a warm, trusting environment. I received my Bachelors degree in Child Psychology, working initially with the adolescent population before transitioning over to adults. I then received my Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy. Looking forward to meeting with you soon!
