Therapist

I'm Simone Shepardson, a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor with nearly two decades of experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families. I've worked across a range of clinical settings — inpatient care, partial hospitalization programs, and outpatient therapy — which has given me a deep understanding of how to meet clients wherever they are in their journey. I specialize in working with gifted populations, high-functioning autism, anxiety, ADHD, and family dynamics. I've served over 10 years on the board of the Illinois Association for Play Therapy and previously acted as a clinical advisor to the West Suburban Bipolar Group in DuPage County.

Makeda Ray

Makeda Ray

Therapist

Virtual • Illinois


Hi, I'm Makeda (Kee)!

Many people come to therapy after spending so much time taking care of everyone else that they've lost sight of themselves. You may be carrying anxiety, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, or navigating a major life transition while trying to hold everything together on the outside. You don't have to carry it alone.

I believe therapy should be a place where you can show up exactly as you are. Together, we'll better understand what's contributing to your current challenges while building practical tools that help you feel more confident, emotionally balanced, and connected to the life you want to create. My goal is to provide a supportive, compassionate space where meaningful growth and lasting change can happen.

Jenny Maguire

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Illinois


Hi there, Jenny here! I believe therapy is about learning how to bend without breaking. I specialize in working with individuals and couples facing trauma, chronic stress, and high-demand roles like military, first responder, high level executives AND those that care for them. These are the people that are usually holding it all together for others!

I have a special connection to these populations as an Air Force brat, Air Force Veteran, and Air Force Spouse - quite literally not a day of my life untouched by the military! I have more than 20 years' experience working with children, youth, families and couples around their life challenges and transitions.
