Latrice Willis, LCSW
About me
As a licensed therapist in Illinois, I specialize in supporting individuals through life's complex challenges. My practice centers on helping clients navigate depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and personal growth. I bring a compassionate, culturally responsive approach to addressing issues like social anxiety, communication barriers, self-love, and workplace stress.
My therapeutic work focuses on empowering individuals—particularly young adults, women, and those experiencing significant life transitions—to develop meaningful coping strategies and reconnect with their inner strength. I understand the nuanced experiences of multicultural communities and create a supportive, affirming space where clients can explore their unique journeys.
Drawing from extensive clinical experience, I offer targeted support for challenges including parenting struggles, relationship difficulties, caregiver stress, and personal identity exploration. My goal is to walk alongside you, helping you build resilience, enhance self-understanding, and create positive pathways forward.
