Jaylan Abd Elrahman
Psychologist, PhD
What an honor it is to be a supportive companion on your path to deeper wellness! I see therapy as a process wherein people can grow a more honest connection with themselves, learn and practice hope-generating perspectives and skills into their day to day and stretch their imaginations for how to lovingly create a future that feels liberating, life-affirming, and meaningful.
My goal is to offer a space that feels collaborative, creative and deeply human- a space where your story is met with curiosity, compassion and trust. My work is guided by Humanistic and Relational Cultural approaches, shining light on and engaging the unique wisdom you already come with and paying close attention to the cultural, racial and systemic forces that shape all our lived experiences. Our sessions might integrate story sharing, trauma processing, skill building, mindfulness and somatic practices, and expressive arts, depending on what feels most supportive to you week to week. I hope that clients experience therapy as venues for personal transformation that offer relief, clarity, levity and empowerment.
Alongside my clinical practice, I teach at several Chicago-area universities and have spent over a decade developing healing-centered programs for migrant youth and women of color in community-based settings. These experiences continue to inform my deep respect for various cultural and ancestral modalities of healing, as well as an appreciation for the many ways people continue to dream new lives into reality!
If you’re seeking a therapist who approaches this process with humility, warmth, humor and a sincere commitment in your growth, I would be eager to connect with you!

Angela Nguyen
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I received my M.A. in Marriage and Family Therapy at Regis University in Denver, and my B.S. in Psychology at Portland State University. I thrive off of working with couples specifically, but I also have experience working with trauma, mental health disorders (e.g. Major Depressive Disorder, Bipolar Disorder, Borderline Personality Disorder), and adolescents. The work I've had the privilege to be a part of and witness stunning growth is exactly the reason why I've chosen this field. It's honestly quite beautiful watching people blossom into their most secure, loving selves. I'd like to help contribute in that evolution, but also bear witness to your story as well.

Mary Vanderplow
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I have the expertise to help clients find their way to a life that doesn't revolve around food, weight, and appearance. There is a path to recovery for every individual and I take the time to get to know each and every client and give them the personal care they need and deserve. It is important to me that my clients don't feel like a number, that each client feels seen, heard, and validated through the therapeutic process.

Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In the intricate tapestry of our lives, the pursuit of happiness, safety, and love is a universal quest. Yet, for many, the journey toward emotional wellness is fraught with challenges beyond their control.
