Courtney Crooks
Psychologist, PhD, CTMH, CCTP, NATC
I am a licensed psychologist in private practice, with over 20 years of professional experience in psychological research and clinical practice. I specialize in psychodynamic/psychoanalytic psychotherapy for individual adults ages 18+. I can help you understand the underlying basis of your conflicts, then guide you on your journey toward meaningful, positive change according to your needs and goals. I will work with you to develop a customized psychotherapy plan depending on your specific needs and goals, which may include session packages that are intentionally short-term (12-16 sessions) or long-term (1-2 sessions per week spanning some months). I am a military veteran, and have received specialized training related to military and veteran's issues, so I also welcome persons from the military and veteran communities as prospective patients. I am a Certified Clinical Telemental Health Provider (CTMH), Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP), and Certified Narcissistic Abuse Treatment Clinician (NATC), and hold an Authorization to Practice Interjurisdictional Telepsychology (APIT) from the PSYPACT Commission.

Psychoanalytic
Mary Elizabeth Burns, MS, NCC, LPC
Counselor/Therapist, MS, NCC, LPC
What makes my work different is that I meet each client as a whole person—mind, body, and emotions. I blend evidence-based therapies like DBT with somatic approaches and breathwork to help clients not just talk through challenges, but feel and release the stress stored in their bodies. I work with teens, adults, couples, and families navigating trauma, PTSD, ADHD, disordered eating, perfectionism, and the pressures of high achievement, as well as divorce and co-parenting transitions. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and practical: I help clients feel seen, supported, and empowered to create lasting change in their relationships, their bodies, and their lives.

Dr. Adam Shafer (Chicago, IL)
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
I do my best to listen in the service of understanding and provide thoughtful responsiveness, which I have found helps my clients connect to their inner life and with others. Using gentle honesty and compassion, I value autonomy and collaboration to help people feel less alone while finding a sense of purpose within their lives and in the world.

Alexey Tolchinsky
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I apply the principles of affective neuroscience to help high-achieving professionals navigate complex emotional landscapes. As a Clinical Fellow of the Neuropsychoanalysis Association and a researcher, I offer a personalized, comprehensive, and compassionate approach that moves beyond reductive "cookie-cutter" treatments and saccharine AI advice. I focus on deep human connection and clinical accuracy, aiming to help you reach stable results, growth, and emotional freedom. I accept complex cases that other practitioners may find challenging.
I specialize in working with neurodiverse clients from a strength-based, complexity-aware perspective rather than a "disorder" perspective.
