Specialized Treatment Options Across Chicagoland & Illinois
Reasons for Seeking Help
Selecting a psychotherapist who aligns with your unique needs and concerns is an important step when beginning a therapeutic process. Understanding a therapist's areas of specialization is integral to making this choice.
An area of specialization sheds light on a therapist's expertise, focus, and experience in addressing specific mental health issues or working with particular populations. For example, therapists often specialize in distinct areas such as anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, LGBTQ+ issues, or child and adolescent therapy.
Below, we provide a list of the main areas of specialization for each of the clinicians at IPA. You can find all areas of specialization for each therapist on their bio.
We hope you will find this information useful in choosing a therapist that aligns best with your needs and preferences.
