I am passionate about working with members from all communities - including BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ individuals. I take a social justice approach to my work, while utilizing a variety of techniques, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a Person-Centered Positive approach, incorporation of mind/body connection, meditation, and creating healthy life balance.

Jane Bennett-Elias
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC
In my years in practice, I have heard from many clients that they have struggled to find a good therapist. Many have said that they didn't feel understood or get interactive feedback in their previous experiences. I believe that the client/therapist relationship is a partnership. We will work together to help you get to the solutions that work for your life.

Fatma Aydin, PhD
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
It is often difficult to ask for support in the face of life’s challenges, and I appreciate you taking this step! I work with young adults and adults experiencing depression, anxiety, relationship concerns, life transitions, and identity and self-esteem concerns, among others. My goal is to create a comfortable and safe space where we work collaboratively to help you face those challenges and make the changes you desire to live a more fulfilling life. We all have vulnerabilities, and strengths we often don’t realize. I therefore work with my clients to build on their strengths and resilience, and develop self-compassion.
I recognize the impact of culture on our identities and experiences and I have enjoyed working with clients from diverse backgrounds at outpatient, community mental health, and university counseling settings. These included the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, Northwestern University, DePaul University and University of Illinois at Chicago.
I welcome clients from all walks of life and feel humbled by their willingness to invite me to be a part of their journey.

Craig Mead
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LCPC
Most people experience some form of stress, anxiety, overwhelm at some point in their lives. Persistent chronic stress in particular can lead to depression and even become traumatic. Many are seeing the advantage of talking to a professional to sort out their problems and also avoid overburdening their partner, family, and friends. Some issues are just easier to talk with a non-related third party. Therapy is a valuable opportunity to process through your thoughts and feeling and gain understanding of yourself, relationship problems, and family conflicts. I genuinely enjoy helping others work through their struggles and learn more about the roots of their current problems.

Christina Shore Best Therapies Inc.
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, DMT
As a trauma informed practitioner I know that it is essential that each individual locate their own unique path towards healing and integration. It requires a lot of work to explore the relationship between inner sensations, emotions, thoughts, and actions. Even bringing awareness to this can be life altering so building resources and self-compassion can be an important foundation to work from. I let the client lead, as you are the expert on yourself, while I provide support, guidance, and reflection so that the therapeutic container can be sturdy enough to lean on and to build trust within.

Sushma Cheturvedula
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
In moments we feel inadequate, uncertain, or even confused, we often look for a helping hand. As a therapist, I perfectly understand that we all need a little extra support at some point in our lives. Together, we will work out solutions that could help you grow as an individual. Working with me can help improve your emotional well-being, make peace with your past, and live the life you’ve always wanted. Our minds can get overwhelmed sometimes, but I will help you unravel what’s causing you stress. Whether it is anxiety, grief, abuse, or even a tough breakup – there will be no judgment from me. Help is just a phone call away.
I use an eclectic approach influenced by Person-Centered therapy, so expect our sessions to be conversational. I also draw inspiration from Gestalt methods, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, and other forms of trauma support I learned from working with people of all ages. I want to explore your history and understand the root causes of your stress.
Our counseling sessions will allow you to express freely and get the most out of therapy. Hopefully, my methods could help you find your voice, value your authenticity and uniqueness, and eventually reach your goals. I also believe in the power of introspection and self-acceptance, two ingredients necessary for growth and healing. I hope to hear from you!
