I am a licensed clinical social worker in Illinois and Indiana, I have spent most of my career working to help people that have experienced trauma understand their own narrative. Sometimes, life events occur in adulthood that necessitate short term intervention to assist us to process, understand and reset. My treatment approach involves not only listening, but more importantly, hearing exactly what each person chooses to tell me so that I can understand their unique issue and help them move forward. Your treatment plan will be created by you and for you so that the piece of you that has been impacted is made whole. I look forward to meeting you and working together to empower you to be excited about today, tomorrow and your future.

Hi, I'm Rasheed Ojerinde. I am a licensed mental health therapist with 6 years of experience providing direct mental health and behavioral counseling. I have worked with individuals ages five to late adulthood with a variety of presenting issues. As a dedicated bicultural millennial therapist with a passion for helping others, I like to approach the therapeutic relationship with a keen sensitivity and respect for multicultural factors. I recognize the importance of understanding and respecting differences in beliefs, values, and attitudes when working with clients from different cultural and social backgrounds. My experience varies across many settings, as I have provided therapy services at community mental health agencies, state clinics, general hospitals, and day treatment facilities. My specialty and passion for therapy lies in exploring intimacy/trust issues, ADHD symptoms, emotional regulation, anxiety disorders, and depression symptoms. It is my experience that therapy can be most effective from an integrative and holistic approach. My therapy style and approach draws influence from Solution-Focused, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Feminist Therapy, Psychoanalytic Therapy, and Structural Therapy. I see therapy as a collaborative effort where our knowledge and skills are combined to create unique solutions to your challenges. I hope that our therapeutic relationship will foster a genuine, trusting, and productive relationship. With evidence-based theories and techniques, my goal is to help you better understand your unconscious self, find peace, and be more fulfilled as a person, partner, and professional. It takes a lot of courage and will power to take that first step towards a more fulfilling life but I believe you are ready and so am I, lets get started!
Karen Morris
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 37 years of experience, I've observed how childhood trauma can develop coping mechanisms that may become dysfunctional and evolve into such things as depression, anxiety, codependency, problematic work relationships, substance use, and even addictive patterns of behavior that serve to dull and impair one's ability to express their needs. As you enter into therapy with me, I believe you will find someone who listens intently, paying attention to not only what you say but also to the underlying emotions and patterns of which you may not be aware .I I will respond with compassion, honesty and at times humor and odd ball references to music, books, sit-coms and movies ( I tend to lean toward fantasy and sci fi, just for the record). I hope to help you find what you have been missing. You bring the flashlight, I will bring the map. I think it will be an awesome journey.
