OUR THERAPISTS

Meet Our Illinois Therapists

Finding the right therapist is about more than specialties and credentials. You want someone who understands what you’re coming in with and feels like someone you can actually talk to.

Our therapists work with adults, couples, and teens across Illinois, with different specialties, backgrounds, personalities, and approaches to therapy.

Find Your Therapist

The right fit is going to be different for everyone. You might want someone who talks things through with you, someone who challenges you a little, someone who understands your culture without needing the footnotes, or just someone whose personality feels like yours.

Take a look around. Each therapist’s page will tell you more about who they work with, how they do therapy, and what they’re actually like to sit with.

Not sure? We’ll help you choose.

OUR SHARED PHILOSOPHY OF CARE

01.

Relational

We’re not going to sit silently while you do all the talking. We ask questions, notice patterns, remember the little things, and actually get to know you.

02.

Collaborative

We’re not here to tell you how to live your life. We’ll bring what we know, you bring what you know about yourself, and we’ll figure things out together.

03.

Human

Family, culture, identity, faith, relationships, and what’s happening in the world don’t disappear when therapy starts. They’re part of the conversation when they matter to you.

MEET OUR FOUNDER

I built the kind of practice I wanted to exist.

I started SCC because I wanted therapy to feel more human, for clients and for therapists. I wanted a team of really good clinicians with different personalities, cultures, identities, and ways of seeing the world, because the right therapist isn’t going to look the same for everyone.

I’m still very much a part of SCC day to day. If you have no idea who to choose, you can talk to me. I’ll help you figure it out.

— Wareesha Sohail, Founder

RELATIONAL THERAPY, ROOTED IN YOU

Let’s find you a therapist you actually like talking to.

You can choose someone yourself or let us help you figure out who might be a good fit. Either way, you can start with a free 15-minute consultation and see how it feels.
