Naperville, Illinois therapist: Nefertiti Nowell, therapist
Serving Black / African American

Nefertiti Nowell

Therapist, Dr.
While a person can feel better after a good talk with a friend or relative, for moderate or severe emotional distress, this relief is only temporary. Talking with a trained listener helps alleviate emotional distress for good. The clinicians in our practice are trained and ready to help you.

Merrisa Dawn Santos

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. Trauma, familial history, and the burdens of life can cast shadows that obscure life's inherent beauty. I believe that each individual deserves to uncover, rediscover, and reclaim life's joy and purpose. As a compassionate and dedicated psychoanalytical therapist, I aim to guide you through this transformative process with warmth and understanding. Through welcoming and conversational counseling services, I aim to create a space where you can explore the intricate connections between your mind, body, and spirit. This holistic approach seeks to assist you in reconnecting with your higher purpose, allowing you to navigate life unburdened by emotional pain.

Oak Brook, Illinois therapist: Louis Miller III, Oak Brook Counseling and Wellness, counselor/therapist
Serving Black / African American

Louis Miller III, Oak Brook Counseling and Wellness

Counselor/Therapist, Attaining CMHC degree, MBK Adler University Member
I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Gestalt, Adlerian, and Solution-Focused approaches to support clients in pursuing goals that are meaningful and aligned with their values. I view therapy as a team effort and strive to show up as a clinician who works alongside you, honoring the whole person rather than focusing on isolated parts or symptoms. My style is relaxed, genuine, honest, and collaborative, with an emphasis on building a trusting and supportive therapeutic relationship. I am always open to clients' feedback on what they want to work on in session, giving them agency. As a former Division I rugby player, I bring a strong appreciation for positive sports psychology and am especially passionate about supporting athletes in the Chicagoland area as they navigate performance pressures, identity, transitions, and overall mental wellness.
