Dr. Rae Mazzei
Psychologist, PsyD
Here's a concise therapist-directory version:
I specialize in helping adolescents and adults develop a healthier, more compassionate relationship with their bodies. Many individuals struggle with body dissatisfaction, negative self-talk, appearance-related anxiety, emotional eating, perfectionism, or the impact of societal and cultural pressures. Using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and mindfulness-based strategies, I help clients challenge unhelpful beliefs, improve self-esteem, cultivate body acceptance, and focus on overall well-being rather than appearance. My goal is to help clients feel more confident, empowered, and at peace in their own skin.

Aurora is one of Illinois's largest cities and serves as a western anchor of the Chicago metro — with a large Latino population (predominantly Mexican American), a growing South Asian community, and a blue-collar manufacturing heritage that shapes its therapy culture. The city's historically Hispanic west side has distinct mental health needs rooted in immigration stress, economic precarity, and bilingual family dynamics, while the more affluent east side neighborhoods generate demand for therapists working with professional stress and relationship concerns. Rush Copley Medical Center provides institutional mental health resources alongside a private therapy community that serves Aurora and the broader Fox Valley corridor. Aurora's affordability relative to Chicago has made it a destination for families seeking more space, and therapists frequently encounter the adjustment challenges and social isolation that come with suburban relocation.
