Individual Therapy & Couples Counseling in Chicago

You're tired in a way sleep doesn't fix.
You've smiled through conversations you weren't really present for.
You've researched whether what you're feeling or what is happening in your relationship is normal, then closed the tab.
You keep telling yourself you'll deal with it later.

We Are Here to Help.

Whatever brought you to this page, a fight with your partner, a week you barely got through, a feeling you can't name but can't shake, you don't have to sort it out alone. Bergen Counseling Collective is a therapy practice in Chicago's Ravenswood neighborhood. We work with individuals and couples who are done waiting for things to get better on their own.

You don't need a label. Just see yourself here.

  • Anxiety that won't quiet down, no matter what you try
  • The same argument on repeat with your partner
  • Carrying something from your past that still shows up uninvited
  • Feeling stuck, unmotivated, or disconnected from yourself
  • Going through a transition that's bigger than you expected
  • Wondering if you should have started therapy a long time ago

You're not too late. And you don't need to have it figured out before your first session.

This isn't therapy from a script.

We actually listen.
You won't get a clipboard and a generic treatment plan. Your first session is a conversation. We learn what's going on, what you've already tried, and what would make this feel worth it for you.
We give you something to work with.
Our therapists use CBT, DBT, Gottman, and trauma-informed approaches. In plain terms: you'll understand your patterns, build skills that work outside this room, and notice things shifting.
We make it easy to start.
Evening and weekend appointments. In-person in Ravenswood or telehealth anywhere in Illinois. Free 15-minute consult to find the right fit. Most new clients are seen within a week.

Founder / Psychotherapist

Starting is the hardest part. We know.

Most of our clients tell us they thought about therapy for months before they actually reached out. If that's you, you're in good company. You don't have to be in crisis. You don't need a referral. You just have to be willing to try.

We work with people navigating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, burnout, life transitions, relationship issues, identity questions, and the general feeling that something needs to change. Whatever brought you to this page, we're here to help you figure out the next step.
