I specialize in helping individuals who are navigating trauma, depression, anxiety, and relationship challenges, alongside a wide range of life stressors and mental health concerns. I work best with clients who are motivated for growth and open to meaningful change, even when the process feels difficult. Many of my clients come to me feeling overwhelmed by day-to-day stress, stuck in long-standing emotional patterns, or struggling to heal from past experiences that continue to impact their present lives. In our work together, I provide a supportive and non-judgmental space where you can feel safe to explore what you're going through
Hi, I’m Cherie. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and EMDR-trained therapist. I work with teens and adults who are feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve them. Maybe you're constantly on edge, overthinking everything, or finding it hard to slow down. Or maybe you’ve been feeling flat, unmotivated, or like you're just going through the motions. These experiences often trace back to things your nervous system picked up on — ways it learned to protect you in stressful or painful situations.
I help people work through painful memories, low self-esteem, and the weight of depression—like feeling numb, exhausted, stuck, or hard on yourself. We'll explore the parts of you carrying that pain and move at a pace that feels right, whether you're ready for deep healing or just need a safe place to land.
If you’re feeling ready—or just curious—I’d be honored to support you on your healing path.
Outside of therapy, I love curling up with a good book, finding design inspiration (I have a soft spot for cozy interiors), caring for my houseplants, and spending time with my dog, Magnolia Grace—who may occasionally drop in for a virtual session cameo.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Chicago
Finding the right couples therapist in Chicago starts with identifying what you and your partner want to work on. Common reasons couples seek therapy include communication breakdowns, recurring conflict, trust concerns, intimacy challenges, and navigating major life changes like a move, new baby, or blended family. A licensed therapist who specializes in couples work — such as an LMFT, LCPC, or psychologist — can tailor their approach to your specific situation.
Chicago has a large community of mental health providers, but narrowing your options takes time. Consider what matters most: a provider's specialty and training, whether they offer in-person sessions in your part of the city or virtual appointments, and whether their availability fits both partners' schedules. Reading a provider's bio before booking can help you understand their style and decide if they're a good match.
Couples therapy in Chicago can be expensive without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay per session. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a couples therapist who fits your needs and your budget.
