Psychotherapy and psychoanalysis should be an investment in creating a life. It should be a goal-driven partnership between the two people in the room. In the therapeutic process we find new goals and have to reassess priorities, shifting back and forth between concrete issues and more abstract concerns with the continued effort of reducing emotional pain and finding a way to live in the world. If you have a question, please email me at zak(at)zakmucha.com or call 773-273-0474 and we can plan for a meeting over the phone or in person. I will be glad to answer any questions regarding fees and insurance.
Outside of my private practice, I have been a consultant and therapist for U.S. veterans performing forensic investigations in child pornography. Prior to that, I ran an Assertive Community Treatment team for seven years providing 24/7 clinical services to persons suffering severe mental illnesses, drug addictions, and chronic homelessness.
Recently (2022) I completed psychoanalytic training at the Chicago Center for Psychoanalysis where I am also clinical adjunct faculty and a current board member. I have authored several books and am also a board member for the Legislative Drafting Institute for Child Protection (www.ldicp.org).
