Hi my name is Michele and I have been in the social work field for almost 11 years. I have my Masters in Social Work from Lewis University. I am licensed in Illinois as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and have certifications in treating Trauma, Shame Informed care and Anxiety disorders. I have a background in domestic violence and crisis intervention. I have worked at a Therapeutic day school and worked with adolescents who had an behavioral plan and/or a 504 plan or IEP. I have enjoyed working in Private Practice therapy for 7 years and working with many diverse populations and diagnoses. I also have worked in an Inpatient Behavioral Hospital doing individual therapy, case management, and facilitating family therapy sessions. Most recently I have been focusing on Trauma Informed care and specializing in anxiety orders. I work with primarily Military service members and their family members. Whether you are looking to manage big life stressors or small ones, low moods or regulate anxiety I am looking forward to helping you start this journey.
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.
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.
Hi, I’m Suzanne. I approach this work with intention and respect. When you sit across from me—even virtually—you have my full attention. My style is direct, honest, and grounded. I won’t overreact, and I won’t minimize your experience. I believe in your capacity to grow, and at times I will challenge you—with care and purpose—to help you move forward.
You can expect steadiness, discretion, and a focus on meaningful change, not just endless processing. Therapy is an investment of your time, energy, and trust, and I take that seriously. My goal is to support you in making real, lasting progress with clarity and confidence.
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.
I don't rush to judge others, client's can say anything uncomfortable or mushy without being shut down.
I approach therapy in a collaborative and compassionate way, creating a safe space where clients can feel supported as they explore their inner world. I believe that each client is the expert of their own life, and my role is to guide, support, and provide tools to help you connect with your strengths and insights. My work is trauma-informed and integrates a variety of techniques, including internal family systems, somatic methods, inner child work, strengths-based narratives, CBT, experiential approaches, and clinical hypnosis.
Welcome! I am a bilingual Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 15 years of experience supporting adults and families. I specialize in helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and LGBTQIA+ concerns, as well as fostering personal growth. My approach is inquisitive, collaborative, and solutions-focused. Whether we communicate in English or ASL, I look forward to working together to help you reach your goals.
Are you feeling overwhelmed by depression, struggling with substance use, or trying to cope with grief or loss? You may feel stuck, emotionally drained, or unsure how to move forward. I work with adults across Illinois who are navigating depression, addiction, and grief. Together, we’ll create a supportive space where you can talk about what you’re going through, regain stability, and start building a path forward with clarity and confidence.
Hello, I’m Sherri Larson, an LCPC who is passionate about helping people feel grounded, understood, and supported. I’ve worked with individuals experiencing trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship difficulties, and I value the resilience people bring to therapy.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I provide a supportive and nonjudgmental space where you can show up as your full, authentic self. I have nearly 7 years of experience working with adults navigating a range of mental health challenges, including anxiety, depression, burnout, and relationship concerns. I specialize in Motivational Interviewing and Strengths-based approaches. I am calm, caring and open-minded.
Building on my decade of experience in the mental health field, my personality style in therapy is rooted in warmth, genuine curiosity, and thoughtful directness. I strive to be a compassionate and steady presence, creating a secure, non-judgmental space where you feel safe to explore your deepest challenges. While I lead with empathy and active listening, I also believe in providing honest, practical feedback and gentle challenges when necessary, ensuring our work together is productive and goal-oriented. My approach is always collaborative—I am here to be a reliable partner and guide, helping you uncover your inherent strengths and wisdom.











Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Finding the right therapist in Olympia Fields starts with getting clear on what you need. Common reasons people seek therapy include anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, grief, and life transitions. Look for a licensed provider — such as an LCPC, LCSW, psychologist, or psychiatrist — who has experience with your specific concerns. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their style and approach before you commit to a session.
Olympia Fields is a smaller community in Chicago's south suburbs, so local in-person availability can be limited. Virtual therapy expands your options significantly, connecting you with licensed Illinois providers who may practice in Matteson, Homewood, Orland Park, or elsewhere in the state. Many providers offer both virtual and in-person sessions, so you can choose what fits your schedule and preferences.
Therapy in the Chicago south suburbs can be costly out of pocket, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see an estimated session cost before you book. Your out-of-pocket expense may be as low as $0 per session, depending on your plan. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a therapist who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
