Female Therapists in East Garfield Park, Chicago, IL

I am an involved counselor who provides feedback and interacts with her clients to promote total wellness. Clients may work short term or long term as we contract for what is best currently. Many clients are surprized that the process is so interactive and useful. Some take notes. My job is to help ground you as you work through your issues, providing clarity and insight. My philosophy is that the therapy belongs to the client. I have 25 years of experience in individual and marital work and am also a Divorce Mediator and a Postal Service mediator. Phone sessions available.

I work with pre-teens, adolescents, adults, families, and couples. For clients under 18, my approach requires active parent/caregiver participation. For couples, I'm a certified Facilitator of Prepare & Enrich, an assessment tool that provides insight into one's relational identity.

Welcome! Whether you have been in counseling before, or if this is your first time, I am glad you are here. I am a PhD student with desires to help you continue, or begin, your therapeutic journey. I work with an approach to therapy that doesn't have a "one size fits all," but is holistic, evidence-based, and inclusive. If you are ready to begin, go ahead and give me a call or send an email. I will be there to meet you halfway! We can address any issues you bring to the table and set goals together. If you have any questions along the way, I will work to provide appropriate psychoeducation, resources, and interventions.

Hello I am Jasmine Tudy, and I want you to know that whatever you are facing is a small fraction of time in this overall blessing of life. No need to fear or think about what others may say, you are in control of designing and bringing about the change you want to see for yourself and your family. Whether it is improving your marriage or relationship, coping with divorce, managing parenting concerns or simply looking to decrease stress, we can figure it out together. Since shifting to a video platform, my clients have expressed that they appreciate the convenience and continue to progress at a faster rate once open to the change.

I provide emotional support to ambitious women who struggle with depression and anxiety. Sometimes when you are used to "being there" for everyone else, you forget to tend to your own needs. When you are usually the "strong one", the people around you often forget that you have emotions and vulnerabilities, too. I specialize in helping strong, capable women figure out how to set boundaries and practice self-care. I also help women identify recurring destructive behavioral patterns and opportunities for growth and self-improvement.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor, Register Art Therapist and trauma-informed clinical practitioner with 25 years+ of experience, I am committed to helping children, teens and adults on their healing journey. I work with clients who have mood/anxiety disorders, OCD, addiction, self-esteem, grief, relationship issues, SA, DV, life transitions, sexuality, trauma and C-PTSD and adjustment challenges. I work with people therapeutically to make desired changes or simply improve well-being and sense of self. My experience includes people from all racial/cultural backgrounds, sexual preferences and gender identifications.

I believe in the art of therapy and the power of the therapeutic alliance. I view therapy as a journey in which two people walk alongside one another in an attempt to better understand who the individual is and how they fit into the world around them.

Home Remedy provides an alternative for families who are considering an out-of-home placement for their child.

We are an effective alternative for families with struggling adolescents who are considering an out-of-home placement.

So many factors are involved in how we feel on a day to day basis that it can be difficult to figure out where to begin. Seeking therapy and finding a therapist that works for you can be the first step in this process. While seeking change, we come to find that it is a complex process involving mind, body, and spirit. Balancing these components of our selves is what the therapeutic process is about. Whether it seems to be a practical problem or a more diffuse concern, your hard work can result in the balance and fulfillment you desire.

As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I strive to strengthen or transform relationships already formed as well as help people find and build the connections they truly want. I believe that we all have the capacity to heal within ourselves, and I work hard to help my clients find that innate ability and bring it to the forefront. I strive to create a safe space where my clients can feel seen and heard as they heal from past pain and move towards new positive experiences.

I view psychotherapy as a joint venture in which we work collaboratively to reach your goals. My style is direct, transparent, humorous, warm, interactive and non-judgemental. I create the safety needed within our relationship to allow us to explore the issues that underlie depression, anxiety, loneliness, lack of fulfillment and other concerns. As a therapist, I follow your lead.

Having practiced psychotherapy and counseling for the past 20 years, I work to form an empathic relationship with clients and form a collaborative understanding of the difficulties that brought them to therapy, and how to best solve them. The goal is to find more satisfying relationships and fulfilling ways of being in the world. I work primarily from an Emotion-focused therapy (EFT) framework, although I have been trained in a variety of different psychotherapeutic methods. EFT is an empirically-supported approach that is flexible in that it allows the integration of other methods and techniques when necessary.

My ideal client is someone who is willing to embrace change for their own betterment—a person who is open to exploring new ways of thinking and acting; and committed or at least curious about their personal growth journey. I believe in the power of collaboration and mutual respect in the therapeutic process, where we work together to uncover strengths and strategies that empower you to navigate life’s challenges with confidence and resilience. I bring a nuanced understanding of developmental stages and the unique challenges individuals, couples, young people, and families face.

Have you ever felt stuck while in a relationship or confused about who you are or where you want to be in your life? Do parts of you feel lost and insecure while other parts of you are so ready to change and give up old habits? These different parts of us may feel pressure from family, friends, work, school, and society to fit a mold of who we are supposed to be as a person. We may even put the most pressure on ourselves to be in control, strive for perfection, or please others. Yet, deep down we may feel empty, out of control, anxious, or inauthentic. You are not alone.

Healing can be a journey. I believe asking for help is the hardest part of the healing journey. It’s difficult to find someone to open up and show your authentic self. I try to create a space that is welcoming to all parts of you. Clients who gravitate towards healing with me share values in learning, growing, change, and challenge. The majority of folks I see are BIPOC, LGBTQ+, First-gen/Immigrants, creatives, and/or trauma survivors.

An integrative and holistic approach to change, healing, and future growth. Assessing your own being, needs, and internal control while promoting health in the mind-body-and soul. Therapy can heal relationships in your personal and professional worlds. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, communication skills, grief, infertility, eating disorders, etc., you do not have to struggle alone. As a licensed clinical therapist, I commit to diligently working in collaboration with you to bring about the change you desire. I am an experienced therapist, trained yoga instructor, and reiki practitioner.

Are you struggling with a life change? Are you feeling stuck and in need of a helping hand to move things forward in your life? As a licensed clinical social worker with a doctorate in organizational leadership, I take pride in working with people around change. I work with individuals struggling with life’s adjustments, anxiety, and depression, as well as symptoms of experiencing general life stressors. I believe that emotional and mental wellness is a part of everyone’s life and that we all may benefit from help from time to time.

Are you ready to stop giving your power away? Would you like practical help to deal with anxiety, self-defeating behavior patterns, depression, worry, shame, self-criticism, grief and loss.? My hope is that with support of therapy, you will gain self awareness and self trust by finding your own innate strength and resilience.

In such busy times you may be feeling tired of doing things for everyone else or doing what others want you to do. Possibly tiptoeing around everyone's feelings and ignoring your own. Maybe you grew up fast, taking care of other's needs long before you were old enough to take care of yourself. You could be reaching your limit or know it can’t go on this way. Putting everyone else first can lead to feeling exhausted, overburdened, or taken for granted. You don't have to do it on your own to have more peaceful and happy life. I learned at a young age we can overcome difficulties when we have someone to listen with care and concern.
