Hi, I'm Sierra! I'm a licensed therapist in Chicago offering fully virtual sessions. I have expertise in helping people heal from trauma, anxiety, and depression. As a once first-generation college student, I understand the difficulties of navigating this particularly trying time in life. Working with a new therapist can sometimes feel daunting, so I get to know each person on a human level with a bit of (appropriate) humor. I'm queer, gender-affirming, and like to incorporate skills in sessions...

I value helping my clients develop self-compassion, interpersonal awareness, intentionality, and balance in their lives. ...

I approach psychotherapy holistically, from the position that our emotions, thoughts, and behavior hang together in ways that make sense emotionally, even if this is not always apparent to us. Many of us who seek therapy come because we find ourselves repeating unwanted behavioral, emotional, and relationship patterns without understanding them or being able to change them. I believe, on the basis of research and my clinical work, that getting to the root of unwanted patterns is a matter of faci...

I help adults and adolescents facing depression, grief, anxiety, and challenges with separations and major life transitions. My background in social work with those who have a history of psychosis has given me deep respect for people’s experiences of marginalization and stigma, which sometimes result from seeking help. Therapy is a place for those parts of our lives that don’t otherwise have a place. It is a place for what we cannot otherwise say or fully feel—where the confusing, conflictual...
