Each youth is given agency in decided if they want to be connected with a therapist, and they get to choose who they work with.

OUR partner Therapists

Erika Aguirre, MA, LPC, ICDVP

I was born and raised in Durango, Mexico. I immigrated to this country when I was 18 years old, facing many challenges that often led me to feel lost, unmotivated, and hopeless that my situation could change. Now as a therapist, my goal is to work with individuals who might be experiencing these feelings, perhaps because they’re struggling with their current life circumstances, relationships, or navigating with the aftereffects of traumatic experiences. My commitment to my clients is to offer a supportive and understanding space where they can feel safe and comfortable to share those thoughts and feelings that might be weighing them down so they can experience life and relationships in a more meaningful and fulfilling way.

Erika Luna, MA, LCPC

My name is Erika Luna, born and raised in the Southwest Side of Chicago. My passion for understanding people’s emotions and behavior came from an early age as I struggled to make sense of the world around me growing up. Now as a therapist, I work with individuals as they navigate life transitions, self-exploration, heal from trauma, and repair relationships. Throughout my career I have learned the impact of trauma comes in many forms, understanding how trauma and chronic stress affect the person's self-concept as well as their mind and body. I identify my therapeutic style as compassionate and collaborative, integrating trauma and cultural healing processes.

Chrissy Storey, M.A., LPC

Relationships are an essential part of life. Family members, friends, co-workers, or children can add both beauty and stress to your life. You are not the same person who entered into those relationships and neither are they. Together we can navigate what it looks like to be true to yourself, continue to grow, and be in healthy relationships with others.
Sometimes we need to begin by uncovering our wholehearted selves. This may mean working through grief, anxiety, depression, or trauma. It may be life circumstances, spiritual concerns, or unhelpful patterns that are holding you back. Whatever may come up, you won’t have to journey through it alone. I will incorporate Attachment Theory, Internal Family Systems, CBT and Mindfulness approach in our time together. Your wholehearted self and wholehearted relationships are within reach.
