Diane Zavala

Do you ever feel like you’ve lost touch with who you are, not realizing how deeply it's affecting your daily life? Do you feel overwhelmed with handling life stressors on your own? Do you ever wonder if life could feel different? Now more than ever, people feel overwhelmed and uncertain about navigating relationships, work issues, and life in general. If you're tired of facing life's challenges on your own, I'm here to lend a helping hand and guide you through. I specialize in working with clients who are ready to embark on the journey of therapy and improve their mental well being. I received my Master’s of Arts in Clinical Counseling from Northwestern University, and I am a licensed therapist in the state of Illinois. With a background in community mental health, I have had the privilege of working with a diverse range of clients spanning from children to adults. Throughout my career, I have worked with clients struggling with depression, bipolar, trauma, PTSD, anxiety, grief, and adjustment difficulties. In my practice, I offer sessions with a unique blend of cultural sensitivity and diverse therapeutic approaches to our sessions. I utilize an eclectic approach gathering from different modalities to meet your specific needs. My primary approach is person-centered, meaning you are the center of your therapeutic journey. Collaboratively we will work together towards understanding, healing, and achieving your therapeutic goals. Whether you are seeking support for your family, relationships, personal challenges, or addressing mental health concerns, my main focus is to create a safe and inclusive space for you to express yourself. I enjoy working with diverse communities including women-related issues, racial issues, and LGBTQIA+. If you are ready to take the first step on your mental health journey, I am here to support you every step of the way. Estoy aqui para apoyarte! I am here to support you!
