I am Greta Long, pre-licensed therapist with Relational Insight Chicago. Our relationships have such a profound impact on who we are and I want to help you better understand yourself in your relationships. I have worked with individual adults from a variety of backgrounds and am open to working with children, couples, and adolescents who may be struggling with parenting concerns, communication with family, faith/spirituality concerns, grief, and life transitions like changing school (jr. high to senior high, senior high to college or workforce, and college to beyond), entering parenthood, death and loss, and more.

Taking New Clients. It takes great courage to live out our authentic selves, find wisdom underneath our emotions, and repair and transform relationships that are close to heart. I admire your strength and humanity. As a psychologist, researcher, and professor, I received training in individual, couple, family, and group psychotherapy. As an immigrant, I witness life and culture in its nuances and complexities. I believe (and research shows) that, built upon a safe and trusting relationship, therapy can effectively support people to find clarity, authenticity, and resolution through the richness of our life journeys.

Life can feel overwhelming. Whether it’s anxiety, depression, disordered eating, using maladaptive coping skills, or navigating a stressful life transition, you don’t have to do it alone. With my empathetic and collaborative approach, we can get through this together. It is never too early or too late to begin discovering who you are and who you were meant to be. I view each person in the context of their environment and through values exploration, skills training, thought restructuring, and inner child healing want to help you discover how to become your happiest, healthiest, and most integrated version of yourself.

I offer engaged, purposeful therapy, focusing on relationships, professional and academic challenges, and life transitions. My specialty lies in supporting adults as they navigate increasing responsibilities in their careers while also managing personal life phases such as dating, marriage, parenting, and losses. Many of my clients are dealing with stress, anxiety, sadness, or depression. I integrate current research and traditional approaches: many clients find value in acquiring skills for emotional regulation and interpersonal effectiveness, while others explore larger issues related to their personal values and life's purpose.

I joined Relational Insight in 2023 providing affordable therapy to individuals, couples, and families. My collaborative approach to therapy helps clients tell their story and practice new perspectives or behaviors. I aim to help clients find validation, healing, and growth within life struggles and transitions. I have a passion for reaching underserved clients, especially men of color and other members of marginalized groups. I also connect easily with adolescents struggling with emotional or behavioral concerns. I strive to provide tangible support for those who may be new to focusing on their mental health.

My priority in our therapeutic relationship is that you feel comfortable and accepted in a safe and non-judgmental environment. My objective is to work with you as a whole person, rather than just a list of issues. It is imperative to me that you feel heard and understood. I truly love being a therapist and feel privileged to be a part of my client's lives.

My clients tell me I’m warm, supportive, down-to-earth, insightful, approachable, and genuine. Some of my common areas of interest are working with young adults experiencing life transitions, those who identify with "people pleasing" or "perfectionist" tendencies, individuals having relationship issues, dads, parenting, and self-esteem issues. My goal is to collaborate with you where you are at to begin to process these experiences and develop skills and awareness about yourself for you to grow. I believe every person deserves to be validated and have a safe space to feel and be heard.

As therapists, we work to build a genuine relationship with each client, create a safe space for discovery, and aim to understand that individual. This allows clients to safely explore alongside the therapist, and begin to see themselves with greater clarity, depth, and honesty. Good, effective therapy will likely not happen overnight (though exciting and wonderful eureka moments certainly occur along the way), and trust, honesty, and humor are invaluable to a beneficial therapeutic relationship. We believe that laughter and tears are equally powerful but that therapeutic change is measured in neither.

Our lives' narratives sometimes may not be pleasant nor self-fulling. Nonetheless, the therapeutic space can serve as a starting point to reflect and create new beginnings. It can also be a space where we revisit past narratives that may have marked you significantly or try to embrace our fears for the future. In our work together, I aim to connect with you in a way that not only allows for safety, trust and vulnerability but instills a sense of empowerment that affirms your ability to endure uncertainty. I view therapy as a space where both you and I can help each other to co-narrate your life experiences.

Entering into therapy is great way to get support when you are going through a tough time or life transition. Sometimes all we need is someone to listen. Other times, we need assistance with coping skills or reframing our thoughts. My goal is to meet you where you are and provide you a safe place to express yourself and your needs.

You are a high achieving professional, but you are still not fulfilled. You're not a quitter, but something needs to change. Feeling exhausted, worried, angry, stuck, and/or frustrated have become the norm. Perhaps you are having trouble concentrating or the workload, anxiety, and pressure are finally taking a toll. You present well on paper, so it's hard to believe that anyone could understand. You want to be excited about work and maybe even life again, or at least feel less anxious and depressed, but nothing you’ve tried so far has worked.

I approach therapy as a collaborative endeavor. I strive to create a warm and accepting space where clients can safely explore the roadblocks they are encountering. My belief is that we are all capable of being resilient; we all have strengths we can rely on to support us through confusing and challenging times. Through therapy, my clients feel empowered to discover new ways to understand themselves and relate to others. My expertise includes relationships, family issues, academic stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, and depression.

The intersection between ourselves and others often begins with a journey inward. This path is often nonlinear. I take great honor in becoming a part of someone's inner voyage. This privilege is intertwined in my therapeutic style, in which I believe there is a transformative power that exists during the process of psychotherapy. Anchored in the professional client-clinician relationship, our work together will deepen self-awareness through gentle inquiry, promote insight into how our past weaves itself into our present experiences, and empower you to cultivate your full potential.

Anxious and depressive thoughts can often make us feel stuck in a cycle. I will help you gain a rich understanding of yourself and your past to take the first step toward processing any feelings of anxiety, depression, grief, relationship difficulties, and more. I prioritize learning about you as a unique individual and I cater my approach to suit your specific needs and goals. Together we will explore your values, identity, attachment style, culture, and relationship history. We will use this insight to address current thought/behavior patterns. This will help you to interrupt the cycle, get un-stuck, and live the life you desire.

I deeply believe in the potential for healing when people feel safe to be vulnerable in trusting relationships. I collaborate with others to transform painful experiences into generative opportunities for growth so that you can create the life you want to live. As a queer South Asian American woman, I am attuned to the complexity of navigating differences in culture, race, gender, sexuality, religion, class, politics, and more in families and relationships. I utilize an intersectional feminist and anti-oppressive framework in my work with individuals and couples who are navigating conflict and seeking better self-understanding.
