Welcome, and thank you for visiting my page! My name is Corliss Ivy. I'm a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and Certified Mental Health Integrative Medicine Provider, with over 18 years of experience caring for people. I work closely with people who want to take the best care of themselves as possible, and identify barriers that interfere with their ability to create the life they want. I have an bachelor's degree in Psychology from the University of Illinois at Chicago and a master's degree in Counseling & Human Services from Roosevelt University in Chicago, Illinois. I completed post-graduate training in the Advanced Psychodynamic Fellowship in Clinical Practice with the University of Chicago, Social Service Administration. I celebrate clients' unique strengths and motives towards self-care. While I integrate the latest findings in psychodynamic psychotherapy, interpersonal neurobiology, cognitive behavioral therapy, and mindfulness, the core of my work center around partnering with clients to build a therapeutic relationship where they feel safe, supported, and deeply valued. I welcome questions, thoughts, or an opportunity to connect and think together about how I can best support you!

I believe that in the therapeutic relationship, the therapist is the professional but the client is the expert. It is through empowerment, understanding, and collaboration that people can best heal and reach their goals. My areas of expertise include mood disorders (i.e., depression and anxiety) and substance use disorders. I take a trauma-informed approach, respecting the differences in life experiences and resiliency that we all have. For therapy to be effective, there must be trust, openness, and authenticity. As therapy can be quite uncomfortable, and even painful, one must be willing to lean into the discomfort to find growth. My practice is based largely on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy approaches. I guide individuals as they practice identifying, challenging, and replacing unhealthy ways of thinking and behaving that have contributed to the development, and perpetuation, of their problems. One of the most difficult things to do is to put our hand up and admit that we need help. Whether we are struggling with loneliness, sadness, or uncontrollable worry, it can be challenging to talk about the thoughts and the feelings we are experiencing and I respect the difficulty one faces in asking for help. May you find peace, happiness, and wholeness.
