Beck Gardner
Pre-Licensed Professional, M.A.
I work alongside my clients to help them feel curious and gain understanding about the things they struggle with and themselves as people. My hope is that our collaborative effort to understand all of you will allow you to find solutions to the challenges you face in your own unique way. I know this can be a intimidating task; I try hard to help you feel supported in it, so you have the space to be curious about parts of yourself that might be hard to face alone.

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.

Online Therapy for Anxiety, Burnout & Life Transitions -AZ, IL, OH
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LCPC
You’ve spent years being the strong one the person others rely on but lately the pressure has been building, and it’s getting harder to hold everything together. I help overwhelmed professionals, caregivers, and women move from survival mode into clarity, balance, and emotional resilience. My work centers on helping you live from purpose, not pressure, using a warm, collaborative, evidence‑based approach.

Gregor Nathanael Schwarz
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Seeking a therapist who truly understands the complexity of your experience is a significant first step. I am Dr. G. Nathanael Schwarz, a licensed Clinical Psychologist dedicated to providing high-quality, evidence-based care for children (ages 5+) and adults. My practice is built on a foundation of collaboration and a non-pathologizing, holistic view of your mental health.
What sets my practice apart is an elevated standard of care that extends well beyond the therapy room. I draw on extensive experience across diverse treatment settings—from intensive residential care to outpatient support—to offer a customized, modular approach. Whether we are utilizing CBT, DBT, or trauma-informed interventions, I integrate biological, psychological, and social factors to help you navigate your challenges effectively.
Beyond individual therapy, I act as an active partner in your journey. My practice includes:
Integrated Support: I collaborate directly with schools and other healthcare providers to ensure your care is cohesive.
Practical Tools: From parent coaching and school consultation (including IEP/504 advocacy) to phone coaching for between-session support, I provide the practical tools necessary for real-world application.
Measurement-Informed Progress: I utilize data-driven screening and evaluation to ensure we are consistently tracking your progress and adjusting strategies to achieve the best possible outcomes.
If you are looking for a dedicated clinician who prioritizes evidence-based methods and comprehensive, coordinated support, I invite you to reach out.

Lenny Gallo
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Living with intrusive thoughts, constant mental noise, compulsive behaviors, or unresolved pain can make it feel like you’re trapped in patterns you can’t escape. If you’re ready to do meaningful work and want a therapist who is direct, genuine, and grounded, I’m here for that. My approach is straightforward but deeply compassionate—we’ll take an honest look at what’s keeping you stuck and develop practical tools that support lasting change.
I work extensively with OCD, anxiety, panic, trauma, men’s issues, body dysmorphia, LGBTQIA+ concerns, and the unique pressures faced by those in creative and entertainment fields.
