Hi there, my name is Lee. I am a bi-racial, first-generation Vietnamese-American, and I believe the best therapy happens when we bring our full, authentic selves into the room. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and an AASECT Certified Sex Therapist. I have a passion for working with couples and diverse populations.

Tatiana Perkins

Tatiana Perkins

Therapist

Virtual • Illinois


Ideally clients book with me looking to heal and move forward in life when they’re feeling “stuck in neutral”. My expertise extends to addressing a range of mental health disorders, such as anxiety, depression and PTSD, OCD, developmental and behavioral issues. I provide personalized therapeutic approaches to foster resilience and emotional growth in my clients. Through empathy, communication, and evidence-based interventions, I tend to create a safe space for individuals to process their experiences, build confidence and develop healthy coping mechanisms. I have experience working with individuals as young as 6 to 55 years of age.

I am a therapist specialized in working with children, adolescents and adults. I am skilled in helping individuals navigate through the emotional and psychological impacts of trauma. I help individuals gain their voices back. With my extensive experience in family therapy, I work to strengthen family dynamics and support healing within the home as well.

Therapeutically; I understand that certain circumstances or life events may have impacted you, however I believe your past shouldn’t control your future. “Just like history; your story continues”, meaning don’t let anything or anyone end your story for you. “In order to see progress, you have to trust the process and believe you will overcome these hurdles”.

Angela Perkinson

Angela Perkinson

Therapist

Virtual • Illinois


Carrying old pain quietly, or staying so busy you never have to feel it, can seem like the safer choice, until it starts costing more than it protects. I’m Angela Perkinson, a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) and registered art therapist based in Illinois, seeing clients by telehealth across the state. I work with teens, adults, and seniors carrying trauma, depression, anxiety, panic, grief, or substance use, and I meet each person where they are rather than where they think they should be. Many clients come in exhausted from holding everything together alone. My goal is to help you feel steadier and less alone with what you’re carrying. I’d welcome the chance to help you get there.
