More about me

Licensing: MA, LCPC Years in Practice: 4 State: Illinois

I am a non-binary pansexual fem presenting queer multiracial therapist. I am driven to work with and am familiar with populations that have been marginalized in our society and culture. This includes but is not limited to LGBTQ, Polyamory, and Kink communities as well as individuals that are living in a multiracial home and existence.

Living on what feels like the border of society is stressful, even more if your close family and loved ones don’t accept who you are. I want to provide a safe space to address the unique and regular concerns of individuals that are unheard.

I provide motivational talk therapy, CBT, and I am certified in basic EMDR therapy to treat trauma, anxiety, depression, and grief. My goal will be to empower you so that eventually you reach the point of coping without intervention from myself. This doesn't happen overnight; it is a process that takes investment from both of us to make small changes that will create a long-standing difference.

I became a therapist due to a desire to help those who have survived trauma, to demonstrate compassion and provide a non-judgmental space. Showing individuals that they have value and are valued. We all deserve a space to be safe, express our concerns and be validated.

I look forward to seeing if we are a good fit for each other.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Pyol is a consummate expert and a true professional - I don't think I'd be having the same extremely productive therapy experience without her.

Overall

Pyol has been extremely helpful and affirming in all of our sessions. I especially appreciate all the tangible advice Pyol provides to help me better communicate my, and respect other's boundaries. This is my first experience with therapy, and Pyol has made it very easy for me to open up and interrogate my feelings, however difficult they may be.

Overall

Pyol has been very helpful and is smart and has good input when needed. They are also very good at guiding the conversation and making sure that we are covering the topics that I have addressed and not going to off the point.

They are very understanding, and quick to offer support. They push when appropriate and assist in not only understanding myself but also help provide ideas and concepts that can help me better my mindset or situation.
