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.

Reshma Rampersad
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I am a licensed clinical psychologist in IL, WI, and New York. I am also Psypact registered allowing me to practice telehealth in multiple states. I provide individual and couples therapy. I believe in a holistic approach to therapy allowing for the balancing of mind and body. I place an emphasis on mindfulness and acceptance in my therapeutic approach allowing you to evolve in a meaningful way. Navigating that evolution can be difficult and uncomfortable, my job is to help you through that process. To facilitate your transformation I utilize Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Interpersonal Therapy.
My areas of interests are multicultural issues, mood and anxiety disorders, substance abuse, eating disorders, and crisis intervention.
I work with individuals from across the lifespan and lifestyles including traditional and non-traditional students, LGBTQIA+ community, first generation individuals, and individuals from diverse ethnicities. I strive to provide the best care to all individuals.

Hannah Hayden with Sapphire Counseling
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I believe therapy is most effective when people feel genuinely seen, understood, and accepted. My approach blends evidence-based interventions with authenticity, curiosity, and a deep respect for each person's unique story. Rather than focusing solely on symptom reduction, I help clients better understand themselves, challenge the patterns that keep them stuck, and create meaningful, lasting change. Whether I'm working with clients, supervising clinicians, or speaking to other mental health professionals, my goal is the same: to foster authentic human connection as the foundation for healing.

Christine Jones
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Over the past 20+ years, Dr. Jones' professional practice concentration has been in applied trauma psychology. She works with adults on rewiring their toughest life events that have impacted views of themselves, others, & their future. Worst memories have included a one-time harsh event for the brain as well as repeated negative incidents triggering the brain to live with disturbing images, thoughts, sounds, and/or smells. With effective treatment protocols, a trusting therapeutic relationship, and good motivation, clients working with Dr. Jones have restored a healthier sense of self, improved relationships, & gained post-traumatic growth effects.
