Sarah Farris
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC, LPC
I offer online, evidence-based therapy for adults located in Illinois, Wisconsin and Florida. Conditions treated include obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) & related disorders, such as anxiety, panic disorder, phobias, illness anxiety, and body-focused repetitive behaviors, or BFRBs - hair pulling/trichotillomania and skin picking/excoriation. I also work with athletes experiencing performance anxiety or coping with pressure in their sport. Sessions begin with a discussion of symptoms and a brief history, goal setting, and working together to develop strategies to make improvements important to you, emphasizing your values and goals to guide the process.

Eric Tivers (ADHD reWired)
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, ADHD-CCSP
I’m an AuDHD, queer, and sex-positive therapist who gets what it’s like to live in a brain that doesn’t always play by the rules. I work with adults across Illinois who have ADHD, autism, or both — folks who are tired of shame and ready for something that actually works. Together, we’ll untangle what’s getting in the way, build systems that fit your life (not the other way around), and bring humor and compassion to the process. My practice is LGBTQ+ affirming, kink-aware, and rooted in understanding, not judgment.

Sue De Santo
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I offer online therapy for adults in many seasons of life, from young adults in their 20s to older adults in their 80s, who want to improve their relationship with themselves and with others. Through telehealth, I support clients navigating a wide range of issues and major life transitions—such as new marriages, becoming a parent or grandparent, adjusting to an empty nest, retirement, or moving into community living—so they feel less alone, more grounded, and better equipped to meet these changes with clarity and care.

Merrisa Dawn Santos
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
I became a psychoanalytical therapist because I believe in the transformative power of self-awareness and understanding. The profound impact of exploring the depths of the unconscious mind and uncovering the roots of one's thoughts and behaviors can lead to lasting change and emotional well-being. I chose psychoanalysis as my therapeutic approach because it provides a unique framework for delving into the complexities of the human psyche, offering individuals a profound opportunity for self-discovery and healing.
Psychoanalysis, with its emphasis on the unconscious mind, allows me to work with patients in a way that goes beyond surface-level symptoms, addressing the underlying causes of emotional struggles. I am passionate about providing a space where individuals can explore their thoughts, feelings, and past experiences in a deep and meaningful way, fostering insight and facilitating personal growth.
