Angela Chapman

Angela Chapman

Therapist

Virtual • Illinois


Welcome! I’m Angela Chapman, and I’m here to support you on your journey!

I believe that feeling heard, understood, and supported can make a meaningful difference when life feels challenging. My goal is to create a comfortable, caring, and judgment-free space where you can feel safe to be yourself, share what’s on your mind, and take steps toward the life you want.

I hold a Master of Social Work degree from Saint Louis University and am licensed and certified in Illinois. I bring more than 25 years of experience as a School Social Worker, where I have had the opportunity to support children, adolescents, adults, and families through a variety of emotional, behavioral, social, and relationship challenges.

I believe that every person is unique, and therapy should be tailored to you—not the other way around. I draw from a variety of therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Problem-Solving Therapy, Behavioral Management Therapy, Parent Management Training, Internal Family Systems Therapy, and Interpersonal Psychotherapy. Together, we can find the approaches and strategies that best fit your needs, strengths, and goals.

I believe in meeting you where you are, listening without judgment, and helping you recognize the strengths you already have. Whether you’re working through a difficult transition, managing emotions or behaviors, navigating relationships, or simply looking for support and a better understanding of yourself, I’m here to walk alongside you.

My hope is that therapy becomes a place where you feel heard, supported, and empowered to move forward with greater confidence and hope. I look forward to getting to know you and being part of your journey.

Therapist

Hi, I’m Stephany. I work with teens and adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and life stress that can feel overwhelming or hard to manage alone. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling emotionally drained, stuck in patterns they don’t fully understand, or unsure how to move forward.

I’m passionate about creating a space where you feel safe, heard, and genuinely understood. Clients often describe me as warm, thoughtful, and easy to open up to.

practical, and grounded in what the research says works. Whether you are carrying something heavy or simply ready for a change, I meet you where you are. I would love to

be part of your journey toward the life you want to build. Let's connect.

Bianca Gist

Bianca Gist

Therapist

Virtual • Illinois


I did not stumble into this work — I chose it, and I choose it every day. I am Bianca Gist, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Illinois and Indiana.

I am also a former collegiate athlete, and that background shapes how I show up — I know what it feels like to carry a lot and still need someone genuinely in your corner. My experience is rooted in the spaces where people need the most and are often given the least — Chicago Public Schools, foster care, home-based services, and community mental health. Through my private practice, Her Sole Purpose LLC, I work with children, adolescents, student-athletes, and families using CBT, ACT, and trauma-informed care. I use what works for the person in front of me, not a one-size-fits-all approach. I work well with people navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and the weight of environments that were not built for them. Therapy with me is honest, grounded, and focused on what actually helps you move forward — not just cope.

If any of this resonates, I would love to connect.

Danielle Kelsey

Therapist

Virtual • Illinois


I specialize in helping adults who live with trauma, anxiety, depression, and OCD. I draw from ACT, EMDR, embodiment practices, and parts work, and I am neurodivergent‐friendly and LGBTQIA+ affirming. I also have experience supporting clients through psychosis, grief, chronic health issues, spiritual trauma, eating disorders, and substance use disorders.

At the core of my work is a belief that every person has the capacity to choose who they become. As Jean‐Paul Sartre wrote, “We are constantly creating ourselves through action.” I see therapy as a space where you can explore that creation with support, clarity, and intention.

Steven Kahn

Steven Kahn

Therapist

Virtual • Chicago, IL


I get it — because I’ve lived it, both professionally and personally.

Before becoming a therapist, I spent over two decades in the corporate world, most of it in consulting, helping people and organizations improve performance and well-being. I also built and ran a company of my own, so I understand firsthand the pressure, high stakes, and constant push to hold it all together that come with building something from the ground up.

And in my own relationships, I know what it takes to communicate honestly, navigate conflict, and stay connected — the same things I help my clients work through.

I work with individuals and couples of all ages on anxiety, depression, burnout, executive and career stress, life transitions, relationship issues, and communication skills. I’m deeply focused on the connection between physical and mental health — sleep, movement, nutrition, purpose, and connection aren’t side notes to me, they’re central to how I think about wellbeing.

I hold a BA in Psychology, a Master’s in Industrial-Organizational Psychology, and an MSW, but what matters most is how I show up: fully present, genuinely empathetic, and committed to being real with my clients — even when honesty is the harder thing to offer.

Outside the office, I’m a long-distance runner, a music lover, a cook, and a lifelong collector of sports and trading cards.
