Mallory Cybulski

Mallory Cybulski

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Chicago, IL


Hi. My name is Mallory and I am not your average therapist. Finding the right mental health provider is somewhat like swiping on a dating app. With limited information, we make our best guess at who could be a compatible fit. Except with a therapist, the stakes are higher. The first session is like a first date... but with the expectation that you should divulge your most traumatic experiences right away. My goal is to remove that pressure and focus instead on building a therapeutic relationship first. That way, I go from being a stranger (or catfish) to someone who feels truly safe partnering with as you begin your journey to heal.
