Rebecca Murray
My name is Rebecca Murray, and I have been a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Illinois for 8 years. My experience is working with individuals struggling with grief and loss, compassion fatigue/burnout, low self-esteem, boundaries, anxiety and depression, and anger management. I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and tie in person-centered therapy. I believe that every person has the capacity for positive change, and that everyone deserves a safe and compassionate place to work through issues in their life.

Marisol Cruz
My name is Marisol Cruz, and I am bilingual in English and Spanish. I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I have 24 years of experience working as a school counselor with children from kindergarten through 12th grade. I have worked with students with various diagnoses. My main objective in working with students is to help them by supporting and guiding them so they can carry on a daily routine in school and any environment. A partnership is developed, whereby children and adolescents are actively involved in helping to create personal growth and development in their lives. I work with families (not family counseling) helping them to create an environment that will establish routines at home so that the changes can be implemented and the children and adolescents feel a sense of support and accountability. I offer wraparound services to help families with the resources they need to live productive lives. Also, I provide services for adults with mild/ moderate depression, anxiety, relational support, life coaching, and more. Sessions will focus on the clients and their immediate needs. At the start of the sessions, we will discuss anything on their mind then concentrate on the main goal of the therapy session and work together towards meeting expectations. The therapeutic process will be empathetic, and compassionate, and the client should feel safe to express themselves in a non-judgmental environment.
