I provide a warm, nurturing, collaborative environment to foster healthy emotional functioning and growth. My goal is to assist you in creating a healthier sense of self. Through my experience, I have come to learn that counseling is most beneficial when possibilities of hope, healing, and action are developed through meaningful conversations. My focus is on helping clients manage their distressful symptoms, identify learned patterns and unhelpful ways of thinking, rewire their brains, reprocess trauma, and access their strengths to use as leverage to work through their upsetting events, fears, anxiety, and blindspots.

Do you need someone to just listen to you or provide additional support for what you're going through? Do you feel like no one understands you or what you are experiencing? Do you feel overwhelmed, numb, burnt out, guilty, or lost? I would like to offer you a safe and confidential space to meet you where you currently are. Depression, anxiety, and trauma can be overwhelming, and I want to strive to help those experiencing such difficult feelings. I received my Master’s Degree in Social Work from the University of Illinois, and am a Licensed Social Worker.

In a world where we lack so much control, regaining our sense of self is so important. My goal is to help individuals learn about their mental health and start to take the necessary steps to improve their quality of life. I believe a person cannot truly begin to grow unless they are able to connect with their therapist and understand how their mental health concerns affect their lives. I received my Masters of Social Work in 2020 with a focus on Children, Youth, and Family Services.

It is no secret that mental distress can be a devastating roadblock in life. It is my hope that together, we can create a completely safe and understanding environment in which we can work together toward achieving balance, implementing healthy coping strategies, and navigating life’s many obstacles toward growth. Therapy can be quite a daunting step to take for many, but I have no doubt in my mind that together, we can lay the foundation for personal growth.

It seems like everyone else’s child has it all together and you feel scared and alone. It feels like the situation is never going to get better and you worry constantly about the future of your child. You never thought you would be in this place and you can’t seem to find your way out. All you want to do is help your child. As a parent, one of the most difficult tasks we face is to watch our children and teens struggle. Parenting an adolescent who is struggling with anxiety, depression or behavior can you leave feeling like you failed.

Hello, my name is Marie Torchia. I am so glad and proud of you taking the steps towards your healing journey. Life can come with so many emotions, thoughts, and experiences that leave us to feel alone, unheard and no supported, as it can be difficult, weather it is small changes or traumatic experiences that have occurred in our lives. I believe that our lives offer opportunities for growth and development, which I can help you identify, explore in a compassionate, warm, supportive relationship to find the strength to address and overcome difficulties and begin to heal.
