Certified Online Therapists in Illinois – Licensed and Trusted Mental Health Providers

Our therapists are licensed and highly skilled

Our Illinois therapists hold professional licenses such as:

• Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSW) – These professionals provide therapy and mental health services, focusing on emotional and social issues. LCSWs help individuals and families navigate challenges and are required to complete a master’s in social work, supervised clinical experience, and a licensing exam.
• Licensed Professional Counselors (LPC) – LPCs offer counseling for a range of personal and mental health concerns. They work with individuals and groups, applying therapeutic techniques to improve emotional well-being. LPCs need a master’s degree in counseling, clinical supervision, and a licensure exam.
• Licensed Clinical Psychologists (Ph.D. or Psy.D.) – Clinical psychologists diagnose and treat mental health disorders using evidence-based therapies. To be licensed, they must have a doctorate in psychology and complete extensive supervised clinical practice.

The Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation (IDFPR) regulates and oversees the licensing of these professionals to ensure high standards of care.

By working with a licensed therapist, you’re ensuring that your therapy is delivered by a highly trained and skilled professional. Our team thoroughly verifies all licenses, so you can trust your therapist’s qualifications.
