Hi there,
My name is Zach and I am a licensed therapist in Illinois with 6 years post grad experience. In total, I have over a decade of mental health experience which includes working in 3 different states and every age of population. Outside of work I like to spend my time hiking, camping, or learning a new hobby. During the winter months you can find me binging a show, reading a book, or playing video games.
I am a therapist who believes healing and learning does not need to be stiff or so formal. My approach is real, laid back, and most importantly creates an environment for you to be yourself without judgement. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, stress, relationships, or just feeling stuck, I’m here to provide insight and support along the way.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
