Therapist

Virtual • Illinois


I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Sex Offender Treatment Provider specializing in therapy for children and youth. I earned both my Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Social Work from Delaware State University, building a strong foundation for the diverse clinical work I've pursued throughout my career.

My background spans a wide range of settings — from wrap-around (intensive in-home) therapy and therapeutic foster care case management to domestic violence advocacy and community-based supervision. These experiences have shaped me into a clinician who meets clients where they are, with both compassion and adaptability.

I currently serve as a part-time outpatient clinician with Blakey Weaver Counseling Center in Virginia, where I continue to bring that same commitment to meaningful, personalized care.

Alanda Smith

Alanda Smith

Therapist

Virtual • Illinois


I’m a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) and a CADC. Therapy is my second career—I retired from nursing after 30 years, and my work in mental health is the continuation of what I’ve always valued: helping people move from illness to wellness, with care, structure, and real support.

I graduated from George Williams College and continued my education through Aurora University to strengthen my clinical foundation. I’m also a certified grief professional counselor, and I specialize in helping individuals and families navigate loss, transitions, and the emotions that come with grief.

I recently received approval for my doctorate in theology, and I will be graduating in May. My approach honors your story and supports healing in a way that aligns with your values—whether you’re looking for faith-informed guidance or focused mental health support.

I'm Gloria — a bilingual LCSW with over 26 years of experience helping people heal from trauma, anxiety, and the weight of things that were never properly addressed. I'm Latina and Native American, and I practice in both English and Spanish. I work with clients of all ages, from children to seniors, and I specialize in trauma, PTSD, anxiety, and women's issues. My approach isn't one-size-fits-all — I pay attention to your cultural context, your family story, and what "healing" actually means for you specifically. Many of my clients come to me after feeling like they weren't truly understood by past therapists. I take that seriously.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Homewood

Finding the right therapist in Homewood, IL starts with getting clear on what you're looking for. Consider whether you want support for a specific concern — such as anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or life transitions — or a more general space to talk through what's on your mind. From there, look for a licensed provider whose specialty and approach match your needs. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their style and decide if they feel like a good fit.

Homewood and the surrounding south suburbs are home to a range of mental health providers, including licensed clinical social workers, professional counselors, psychologists, and psychiatrists. Some offer in-person sessions at offices in the area, while others are available virtually. If scheduling flexibility matters to you, virtual sessions can make it easier to find an appointment that fits your calendar.

Therapy in the Chicago metro area can be expensive without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay out of pocket. 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 provider who fits your needs and your budget.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
