Dr. Terry Dornak, Psy.D., CCATP
Klinički psiholog | Klinički direktor
Doktorirao sam psihologiju i magistrirao na The Chicago School of Professional Psychology. Svoje terapeutsko iskustvo stekao sam ne samo radeći u privatnoj praksi već i kroz rad u rezidencijalnim ustanovama.
Moj cilj je da se osjeća svaka osoba koja uđe u moju kancelariju udobno i prihvaćeno. Poštujem kulturu, pol, rasu i seksualni identitet svakog pojedinca. Ja sam strastven u svom polju i vjerujem da je svaki pojedinac koji dođe u moju kancelariju jedinstven. Koristim integrirani pristup koji uključuje kognitivnu bihejvioralnu terapiju, terapiju dijalektičkog ponašanja i psihodinamske tehnike. Radim sa svakim klijentom na izradi plana tretmana koji zadovoljava njegove ili njene lične potrebe i ciljeve. Uživam u radu sa decom, adolescentima i odraslima, pružam individualnu, porodičnu, kao i terapiju odnosa.
Imam veliko iskustvo i obuku u liječenju poremećaja raspoloženja, poremećaja ličnosti, anksioznosti, upotrebe supstanci i ljutnje. Osim toga, specijalizirao sam se za liječenje psiholoških borbi koje su često povezane s kroničnim bolom, uključujući anksioznost, depresiju, stres i poteškoće u vezi. Specijalizirao sam se i za liječenje postporođajne depresije i neplodnosti.
Pozdravljam povratne informacije od svojih klijenata. Kada klijent smatra da određena tehnika ne radi, ohrabrujem ga da mi kaže kako bismo zajedno pronašli drugu tehniku koja bi mogla bolje funkcionirati. Mislim da je terapija definitivno timski rad.

Finding balance in this unpredictable world can sometimes seem unachievable. Together, we can find a balance that best fits you. My goal for therapy is teaching you the skills needed to find your balance so you can flourish in your daily life. Whatever your journey has been, I will help you implement knowledge and tools to overcome barriers from the past, present, and future. I am here to listen from a neutral perspective with expertise in psychological health and the influence it can have on the rest of our biological system. My clinical skills reflect all ages across the lifespan as I have worked with children, adolescents, adults, and older adults. With this, I am flexible in aiding in treatment among various cohorts and in a multitude of settings.
Through my training in health service psychology at Kansas City University, I was able to work closely with medical students in training to become knowledgeable in the process of collaborative care. I am willing to work with you and any of your providers to ensure advocacy for your comprehensive wellbeing. You will not feel alone or unheard throughout our treatment together as I will work collaboratively with you to ensure the best care.
The evidence-based treatments I commonly use in practice include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing (MI), solution-focused therapy (SFT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), and cognitive processing therapy (CPT). I am well versed in neurocognitive deficit interventions, mood disturbances, substance use interventions, and trauma processing. Additionally, I have done extensive research in women’s health issues including PMDD, postpartum depression and anxiety, and other menstrual conditions.

Dr. Breanne Taylor, PsyD
Post-Doctoral Psychology Fellow
I believe that the therapeutic relationship is paramount in fostering change. It is through an open, nonjudgmental, and safe environment that clients can explore and grow into their most authentic selves and lead more fulfilling lives. My approach emphasizes how our past and present experiences shape how we relate to others and the world around us. I work with children, adolescents, and adults, and utilize an integrative and collaborative approach that incorporates aspects of Psychodynamic Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Feminist, Relational, and Strengths-Based approaches.
I am an LGBTQ+ affirming and sex positive therapist who welcomes clients who are part of the kink and poly/consensual non-monogamy communities. I received a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from the University of Central Florida and a Doctorate degree in Clinical Psychology from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology.
I have extensive experience in various settings, including substance abuse facilities, community mental health centers, and therapeutic day schools. I work with a range of concerns such as anxiety, depression, substance use, trauma, developmental disorders, impulse control, and relationship challenges. I am now also offering online therapy to better support my clients.

Dr. Imuentiyan Igbinosun, PsyD
Post-Doctoral Psychology Fellow
In life, people look for answers and I believe the answers lie within each of us. I strive to help individuals make their thoughts and goals clearer so that individuals can find answers during times of heavy clouds and dark skies. Through processing, learning effective tools, and techniques to manage high stress and anxiety, I work with my clients to get them to a more comprehensive sense of self. That self they have always dreamed of being and that self they, unconsciously, already are. In doing so, processing the past and the present to develop how my clients want their future to look will be a journey of healing and finding balance.
Through online therapy, I work from an integrative approach primarily utilizing Psychoanalytic/Psychodynamic interventions with Cognitive Behavioral and Dialectical Behavioral theories. I am extensively trained in Psychoanalytic/Psychodynamic and Dialectical Behavioral therapies. I strive to help individuals identify patterns in current relationships and behaviors that stem from past experiences, both from past attachment, as well as environmentally learned. I take a collaborative approach through processing, learning effective tools, and applying techniques to manage high stress and anxiety. I have experience working with adults struggling with depression, anxiety, mood difficulties, trauma-related concerns, self-esteem, interpersonal relationships, phase of life adjustments, personality disorders, identity and LGBTQIA+ related concerns.
I earned my doctoral degree in Clinical Psychology from Adler University in Chicago, IL and my master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from the Illinois School of Professional Psychology at Argosy University, Chicago, IL. I have worked in private practices, intensive outpatient programs and college counseling settings as I enjoy working with young adults, middle-aged adults, individually, couples and in group therapy.
Santina Bianco, LPC
Terapeut
Univerzitet Adler mi je bio važan zbog svog naglaska na socijalnoj pravdi i angažmanu zajednice. To što sam dio zajednice Čikaga otvorilo mi je oči jer sam porijeklom iz malog grada. To što sam bila mala riba u velikom ribnjaku omogućilo mi je prilike i iskustva za koja smatram da su mi pomogla da rastem kao savjetnik.
Stekao sam terapeutsko iskustvo radeći u rezidencijalnim sredinama kao što su državne škole u Čikagu, centri za smeštaj maloletnika i krizni centri. Moja strast uključuje rad sa djecom, adolescentima i mladima uz promicanje različitosti. Pružam individualnu, grupnu i porodičnu terapiju. Moje iskustvo se sastoji od liječenja niza problema mentalnog zdravlja, uključujući depresiju, anksioznost, poremećaj ponašanja, opozicioni prkosni poremećaj, poremećaj pažnje i hiperaktivnost (ADHD), poremećaj prilagođavanja i ljutnju.
Moj pristup je integriran kombinirajući prakse zasnovane na dokazima uključujući terapiju usmjerenu na klijenta, terapiju kognitivnog ponašanja, dijalektičku bihejvioralnu terapiju i Adlerovu terapiju. Moja oblast specijalnosti je korišćenje terapije igrom. Terapija igrom je psihoterapeutski pristup koji se prvenstveno koristi za pomoć pojedincima da slobodno izraze svoje emocije i misli kroz korištenje igre. Terapeutska igra je način da pomognem pojedincima s akademskim, bihevioralnim, društvenim ili emocionalnim problemima s onima koji drugačije izražavaju komunikaciju. Verbalna komunikacija nije za sve nas i može biti zastrašujuća. Više volim da upoznam nekoga dok radim nešto aktivno ili zabavno.
Moja strast je da pomognem svojim klijentima da ostvare svoj puni potencijal koristeći njihove snage za podsticanje nezavisnosti. Moj stil terapije uključuje upoznavanje sa svojim klijentima tamo gde se trenutno nalaze. Moj cilj je pružiti jedinstveno i autentično savjetodavno iskustvo u kojem se čovjek može osjećati prihvaćenim zbog toga što je svoj. Nastojim da obezbijedim siguran i prostor za saradnju kako bih pomogao u razvoju povjerenja kako bih olakšao rast u terapijskom odnosu.

I believe we’re naturally good and unfortunately taught to feel shame, worthlessness, inadequacy, and the ideas of “bad” and “wrong”. I’m dedicated to providing a non-judgmental environment to support clients, explore their situations, and achieve their goals. I strive to hear and understand your feelings, past and current experiences, as well as to provide information and new coping strategies to help you deal with your concerns, difficulties, and struggles. We will sort out what’s going on in your life and sort it out together.
I received my Master’ degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Adler University. I have received training in CBT, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and personality disorders treatment and management. It is my goal to keep enlarging my toolbox in order to provide more efficient and effective support to my clients.
The differences between cultures, languages, and environments may cause frustration or even conflict, and having new information and ways to handle them will create fresh insights and help you accomplish your goals. I hope after every session my client feel more confident, having healthier boundaries, and enjoy their lives more.
I offer therapy to individuals, couples, and families in English, Mandarin, and Japanese.

We all have unique innate strengths that create our inner awesomeness. However, sometimes we forget or lack the skills to nurture these qualities when we are consumed by the chaos of our day-to-day lives. By recognizing and developing these qualities we will come to recognize and “own our awesome.” Together, we will take the first steps on your journey to maximize your full potential. We‘ll identify and work on areas where you get stuck, to increase your alignment with your values, as we develop practices that create life-changing shifts and lasting results.
I am a licensed professional counselor. I completed my Master of Education in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from DePaul University in Chicago. Throughout my career, I’ve held positions in outpatient therapy and residential treatment programs. I have worked with diverse populations and ages including adolescents and teens, adults, and individuals with chronic mental health and physical health issues. I use an integrative approach of strengths-based, person-centered, and psychodynamic techniques. I strongly believe in the importance of the therapeutic alliance and that clients should feel safe and supported. Each session we will collaborate on your treatment to help you meet your personal needs and goals.
