My name is Olivia Berkeley and I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Illinois and Texas with experience treating trauma, addiction, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and self-esteem disturbances in adults. My approach to therapy is grounded in compassion, presence, curiosity, and science. Therapy is an exploration into the truth of who you really are. If you feel stuck, overwhelmed, burned out, numb, restless, dissatisfied, or unsure of where to go next, therapy offers a sacred space for honest self-exploration with the support of a trusted professional. Transformational and lasting change is possible. Many of my clients have experienced various forms of relational trauma — including wounding that has occurred in intimate relationships or during their childhood — and yearn to heal from these experiences and find healthier ways of dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, and other challenging emotions and behaviors. I am passionate about my work and believe deeply in the healing power of the therapeutic relationship. Every person has the ability and right to thrive and therapy supports our most authentic self to manifest in the world. I feel immensely grateful to be able to witness the healing process take hold and to create space for each person’s unique process of self-discovery. If you’re contemplating therapy, have questions, or are ready to embark on the therapeutic journey, I would be honored to hear from you.

As a first generation American with a multifaceted cultural background and personal identity, I understand just how unique every individual is. For this reason, I find it important to meet clients where they are at and create a supportive and safe space where they can be their true authentic selves. I use an integrative approach to therapy based in multicultural, person-centered, and psychodynamic frameworks. I enjoy using a narrative approach to empower clients to re-author their life story, make more informed choices, and create positive change that will help them to live in a way that reflects their true goals and values. Together we can explore and process your life experiences, consider the various aspects of your identity (race, culture, gender identity, sexual orientation, etc.), and explore your many abilities, skills, values, and beliefs. I may incorporate Motivational Interviewing, CBT, REBT, Relational Therapy as needed to facilitate progress towards your goals. I am experienced in working with clients from diverse backgrounds and ages/ life stages, from adolescents to older adults.

Welcome. My name is Shinhae. I believe therapy is a journey of understanding and healing your inner self in the process of rebuilding a relationship with yourself as well as with others. My own therapeutic journey has allowed me to find new meaning and insight for me to embrace myself wholeheartedly. I strongly empathize with what it feels like to be alone in a cage of emotional and mental struggles. It is hard to overcome the situation with a hopeful mindset while in the state of being most vulnerable. I believe that understanding of self can uplift you to move forward with hope. I am grateful to walk along on your journey as if someone did to me.
