Hello! I am Analeise, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker working in the NW side of Chicago where I offer individual and family therapy. I chiefly use Strengths Based, Client-Driven, and Person-Centered therapy. We are the experts on ourselves, even when thinking that conditions inside or outside of us are running the show. We have an innate drive to heal and grow. Therapy is designed to connect us with the truest expression of ourselves, not driven by anxiety or reactivity. It is a relief to know this is possible to access our best self; as a partner, parent, family member, or co-worker.

NOW accepting new clients! You have decided that you are in a place in your life where therapy could be helpful.

My hope in working together is to create a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental environment where we can draw upon your strengths and explore behaviors, beliefs, and relationship patterns that no longer serve you.

I am a bilingual therapist (English and Spanish). I see therapy as a journey of self exploration where you can utilize strengths and skills that the person already has but is unaware of. Sometimes, self-exploration can be challenging; for that reason, I like to guide clients in their journey by honoring their autonomy and resiliency. "You can become the best version of yourself." My philosophy is that nobody knows you better than yourself.

I work best with clients ready to take action and needing support to face the anxiety and depressive thinking beyond old trauma. The people who care about you want to see you build an inner strength to face challenges directly. Over the last 13 years, my clients have improved their relationships, careers and deepened the release of past pain. Prepare for facing directly your stress and symptoms, recognizing internal versus external barriers, holding yourself accountable toward healthy choices, and understanding barriers you face. Our work will support your growth and awaken the motivating force inside you.

I am a firm believer that it is okay not to be okay and it is okay to ask for help.

On this mission, I have had the pleasure to provide therapeutic services to diverse populations, including adolescents, adults, and families, via individual therapy, group therapy, and family therapy.

Every individual carries their own inner wounds that need to be dealt with. When we are empathetically understood and listened to, we discover our hidden strengths as resources and are empowered to understand better and relate to ourselves and those around us. When we see our rigid patterns from multiple angles, we have a greater capacity to understand situations we find ourselves in more objective ways. I create a compassionate and healing space where empathy guides our work toward understanding and growth. I have been working with depression, anxiety, and relationship issues.
