Individual Therapy

Discover a space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and challenges in a supportive and non-judgmental environment. Individual therapy helps you uncover insights, build resilience, and work toward personal growth and healing.

Family Therapy

Family dynamics can be complex and deeply impactful. Family therapy focuses on improving communication, resolving conflicts, and strengthening connections, so your family can thrive together.

Parental Coaching

Parenting can be one of life’s most rewarding yet challenging experiences. Our parental coaching services provide strategies, tools, and emotional support to help you navigate the complexities of parenting with confidence and compassion.

LGBTQIA+

At Pure Balance Psychotherapy, we provide LGBTQIA+ affirming therapy for individuals seeking a safe, supportive, and identity-affirming space to explore life's challenges. We recognize that LGBTQIA+ individuals often navigate unique experiences related to identity, relationships, family dynamics, discrimination, minority stress, and belonging. Our approach honors your lived experience and supports you in showing up as your authentic self.

Whether you are exploring your sexual orientation or gender identity, navigating a transition, healing from trauma, strengthening relationships, or seeking support for anxiety, depression, or life stressors, therapy can provide a space for growth and connection. We offer compassionate, trauma-informed care that affirms all gender identities, sexual orientations, relationship structures, and expressions of self.

Located in Chicago, Illinois, we serve clients throughout the Chicago area and provide Telehealth therapy across Illinois. Our goal is to create a welcoming environment where LGBTQIA+ individuals can feel seen, respected, and empowered to move toward greater balance, healing, and well-being.

Kink/Poly

At Pure Balance Psychotherapy, we provide kink-affirming and polyamory-affirming therapy for individuals, partners, and families seeking a supportive, nonjudgmental space to explore relationships, identity, communication, and personal growth. We recognize that consensual non-monogamy, polyamory, kink, BDSM, and alternative relationship structures are valid expressions of human connection and deserve care that is informed, respectful, and free from stigma.

Many people in kink and polyamorous communities seek therapy for the same reasons as anyone else—anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, grief, or stress. Others may be looking for support navigating communication, boundaries, jealousy, relationship agreements, power dynamics, identity exploration, or challenges related to disclosure and social stigma. Our goal is to create a space where you don't have to educate your therapist about your relationships or worry about being misunderstood.

Our approach is trauma-informed, collaborative, and affirming of diverse identities, relationship structures, and expressions of sexuality. We welcome individuals who are exploring kink or consensual non-monogamy, as well as those who have long been part of these communities. Therapy can provide a space to strengthen communication, deepen self-awareness, build healthy relationships, and navigate challenges with greater confidence and authenticity.

BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color)

We honor and center the lived experiences of BIPOC individuals and families, providing culturally sensitive care to help navigate challenges and celebrate strengths.

Living with an immuno-disorder comes with unique challenges. We offer compassionate support and understanding to help you navigate your emotional and mental health journey.

Health at Every Size (HAES)

We embrace a weight-inclusive, body-positive approach to mental health care, supporting you in cultivating self-acceptance and holistic well-being.
