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.

Maggie Reynolds
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, EMDR Certified, NCC
You don’t have to keep pushing through on willpower alone. If you’re searching for trauma therapy that goes deeper than talk therapy, I offer online counseling in Illinois and Connecticut for professional adults dealing with anxiety, burnout, relationship stress, and the impacts of trauma. I specialize in EMDR therapy and Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) to help you heal patterns at the root and feel more like yourself again. Reach out to schedule a free 15-minute phone consultation so we can talk about what’s going on and whether I’m the right therapist for you.

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.

Using Somatic Experiencing approaches, you and I will go step-by-step, working to understand and improve how your fight/flight/freeze/fawn systems show up within your life. We will steadily build your nervous system's resilience, adaptability, and resourcefulness.

Bamboo Center for Grief, Growth, & Well-being
Psychologist, PsyD
Get results without going to the office!
Access all our dynamic services (Individual Therapy for adults, Holistic and integrative Psychiatry, Life Optimization, and Performance & Creativity Enhancement) – to go!
Telemedicine (video-based) allows for online counseling and services from the convenience of your home, office, or hotel (as long as it is in a state where we are licensed).
This method of care can help you feel at ease in settings better matched to your personality, schedule, and lifestyle. We have provided online therapy options since 2017 - before the pandemic enabled it as a mainstream service - and are therefore well-versed in both helping you feel comfortable and see desired results through this digital session option.
Telemedicine is a great option for the following reasons:
* You want a specialized expert
* It is convenient for your schedule and lifestyle
* You or your child suddenly feel sick so now you can’t make it to your in-office appointment
* You live in a rural community with limited access to mental health providers
* You want to maintain your regular session schedule when traveling
We can talk through online video calls (accessible from laptops, phones, or tablets) to work on your goals from nearly anywhere!

Kelli Hall
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I offer virtual therapy for individuals who find themselves over-accommodating, over-functioning, or struggling to set boundaries in relationships. If you’ve ever felt responsible for other people’s feelings, guilty saying “no,” or stuck in patterns that leave you feeling drained—this work is for you.
My practice is fully private pay (effective July 1, 2026), and I partner with Thrizer to support clients who would like to utilize out-of-network (OON) benefits.
All sessions are conducted via a secure, HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform. I offer a complimentary 15-minute consultation to ensure we’re a good fit and that virtual therapy meets your needs before getting started.

XaHara A. MeGod
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC, R-DMT, CPT
A sacred space to heal the parts of you that words alone may not fully reach. Many people carry stress, trauma, and emotional pain not only in the mind, but within the nervous system and body itself. These experiences can quietly shape relationships, self-worth, emotional reactions, and the ability to feel safe, connected, or fully present in life. I offer compassionate, trauma-informed support for individuals and couples (including LGBTQIA+ and polyamorous partners) seeking deeper healing and meaningful change.
As a somatic therapist, I integrate body-based therapy, mindfulness, and counseling into a holistic healing approach that serves your nervous system to help you process and reconnect your mind, body, and spirit. You will feel more grounded and empowered.
Starting therapy can feel vulnerable, especially when you’ve been carrying things on your own for a long time. Our work together will move at a pace that feels supportive, collaborative, and safe while honoring both your lived experience and your body’s natural wisdom for healing.

Zena Caputo
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
One thing the pandemic taught us is that virtual therapy can produce great clinical outcomes. If you’re considering doing EMDR remotely due to location or convenience, we can utilize the bilateral stimulation that is a key component of EMDR in a variety of ways during video sessions. I offer the option to rent an easy to use set of ‘remote tappers’ that can enhance our work together and bring the most of the therapeutic experience into the comfort of your home.

Sessions are conducted through a secure video platform and are designed to be engaging, collaborative, and goal-oriented.
Whether you're navigating a challenging season or looking to build long-term resilience, telehealth makes it easier to prioritize your well-being—wherever you are in Illinois.

Ilyssa Swartout
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Move Toward Healing and Growth
Are you ready to move forward and create real change in your life? Therapy offers the space to heal, gain insight, and build the confidence to live more fully. Together, we’ll work to release the pain and patterns that have kept you stuck, so you can develop a stronger, happier, and more grounded version of yourself.
Life’s challenges can feel overwhelming—especially when old wounds continue to echo in the present. Unresolved childhood experiences can show up as anxiety, depression, addiction, or struggles in relationships. When your emotional or physical needs weren’t met early on, it can leave lasting imprints of fear, shame, or powerlessness.
I deeply understand how this feels. My own journey of healing and professional training have given me both empathy and the tools to guide others through their own process of recovery and growth.
You don’t have to carry the past alone. Together, we can help you reconnect with your strength, release old pain, and step into the life you were meant to live.
