Honoring Your Indivisible Self in a Fragmented World.
True wellness is not a solitary journey. In a world that often isolates us, our mission is to restore your sense of belonging. We see you as a complete, indivisible being, not a collection of symptoms. Together, we will uncover the goals that drive you and build the courage to connect—with yourself, with others, and with the community around you
Meet Dr. Shawna Brough
Licensed Clinical Psychologist | PsyD
Selecting the right therapist is an important decision. I am a Chicago-based Licensed Clinical Psychologist specializing in secure telehealth therapy for teens, young adults, and adults. With seven years of clinical experience, my goal is to provide a grounded, judgment-free environment where we can honestly address the realities you are facing.
A Collaborative Partnership
Effective therapy is built on a true partnership: you are the undeniable expert on your own life, and I bring the psychological expertise to help you make sense of it. Using an integrative, humanistic approach anchored by Adlerian principles, I meet you exactly where you are. There is no one-size-fits-all here; your care is tailored entirely to your unique needs.
The Reality of Change
A core focus of my practice is helping clients navigate relationship dynamics, co-parenting after divorce, the exhausting weight of perfectionism, and complex life transitions. Whether you are facing a sudden change, a loss of identity, or a frustrating new reality, I provide a space to validate those hard feelings rather than rush past them.
Clinical Focus
In addition to life transitions, my practice supports clients through:
- Mood Disorders & Depression
- Anxiety & OCD
- Trauma & PTSD
- LGBTQIA+ Experiences & Identity Struggles
Credentials
I am fully licensed in Illinois and an active PSYPACT member, offering accessible telehealth across participating states.
