Therapy for expats and international professionals in Chicago
Chicago draws people from everywhere: about one in five residents was born outside the United States. If you moved here for work or school, or grew up between cultures and landed in the city, you may be juggling a demanding job, distance from family and the quiet work of building a life somewhere new.
Adults 18+ & couples · Secure video anywhere in Illinois · In-network with BCBS PPO & Aetna PPO
What this can look like
Feeling settled at work but lonely outside it

How we can help
How we work
We bring evidence-based therapy, including Gottman and EFT approaches for couples, together with real curiosity about where you come from. You don’t have to explain or defend your background here, and you don’t have to fit a single cultural box.
Fitting therapy into a Chicago week
Sessions are by secure video, so you can meet from home or a private room at work without a trip across the city. Ask about current openings during your free consult.
ONLINE ACROSS ILLINOIS
Secure video, wherever you are in Illinois
Sessions happen by secure video from a private space on your phone, tablet or computer. Our therapists are licensed in Illinois, so you need to be in Illinois during each session. We’re in-network with BCBS PPO and Aetna PPO.
