I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with clinical training and licensure in California, Illinois, and Wisconsin. I work with adults, teens, couples, and families navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, relationship concerns, and major life transitions. My background includes working with individuals from diverse cultural, relational, and identity backgrounds, and I am especially affirming of queer, non-monogamous, and marginalized communities. I bring a strong social justice lens to my work and value therapy that is thoughtful, inclusive, and grounded in real-world context. I show up authentically with my unofficial therapy dog, Willow.
A lot of people who reach out for therapy are used to holding things together on the outside while quietly feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, emotionally exhausted, or stuck underneath it all.
They overthink decisions, carry pressure constantly, struggle to slow their mind down, or notice they keep repeating patterns they already understand but still cannot seem to change.
I’m Ron Henson, a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and owner of In Situ Counseling & Coaching. My practice helps adults navigate anxiety, burnout, ADHD-related challenges, relationship stress, life transitions, emotional overwhelm, and high-functioning internal pressure through virtual therapy that is collaborative, grounded, and focused on helping things actually make sense in context.
I'm Dr. Qianhui Zhang, a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with a PhD in Counseling Psychology and over 15 years of experience working with young adults, students, and professionals. My practice has been primarily centered on international students, immigrant communities, and BIPOC professionals — people who are often navigating not just personal struggles, but the compounding weight of cultural transition, systemic stress, and identity in a world that wasn't always built with them in mind. I specialize in trauma and PTSD, anxiety and depression, intergenerational and complex trauma, attachment and intimacy difficulties, and the particular pressures that come with high-functioning burnout. I also work with eating disorders, grief and loss, relationship issues, identity development, and psychedelic preparation and integration. I offer individual psychotherapy, group therapy, psychological evaluation (including immigration evaluations), and consultation and training for therapists and other professionals. I conduct sessions in English, Mandarin, and Cantonese, and see clients in person in Chicago as well as via telehealth across 43 PsyPact states.
Welcome! My name is Arianna. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I have extensive experience supporting teens and adults navigating anxiety, eating disorders, neurodivergence, and life adjustments.

As a licensed clinical social worker, I work with adolescents and young adults to find meaning and purpose while working through the mental barriers that have created challenges in their lives. I specialize in working with adolescents, addictions, men's issues, depression and anxiety.
I have been practicing since 2012, after being clinically trained at Loyola University Chicago, where I spent extensive time working with both adolescents and adults.
I have been helping clients globally with a variety of issues in my core areas of expertise, including addiction, mood disorders, and identity issues.
I am also certified in Financial Social Work, bridging my passions for personal finance and emotional well-being.
My therapy room is a space where you don’t have to explain yourself. You can show up, fully and authentically, without the need to code-switch or justify your experiences. Our sessions are a dedicated time for you to be heard and understood without judgment.
I have over 3 decades of experience working in the fields of mental health and social work. I work with youth, adults, and couples who are struggling with trauma, depression, anxiety, ADHD, autism, relationship issues, and school refusal.
I have spent my career learning and translating theories into practice with individuals, families, couples, and groups. For the last few years, I've gained deeper knowledge working with trauma, anxiety, couples, and the LGBTQIA+ population.
I believe that change and growth happen within a safe and secure relationship. I see symptoms as meaningful, often serving a deeper purpose, and I approach them with curiosity and compassion to help you explore what they may be trying to communicate.
