Talk to your therapist
We match you with a therapist licensed in Illinois, and you start your sessions by phone wherever you are in the state.
License issued by the State of Illinois
To provide therapy, your therapist needs a license issued by the State of Illinois, and you need to be in Illinois during the session. That license authorizes them to provide therapy, not just support, and requires them to follow the state's professional and ethical standards. You can check any therapist's license on the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation (IDFPR) license lookup.

We serve all of Illinois
We don't have offices: your sessions are by phone, so you can talk to your therapist from any city in Illinois.
Chicago
If you're trying to find Spanish therapists in Chicago, think about winter: heading out in the cold and snow to get to an appointment is the last thing you want. At dafne your session is a phone call, so you talk to your therapist from home, warm and without going anywhere, whatever the weather.
Chicago suburbs (Cicero, Berwyn, Aurora, Elgin and Waukegan)
If you work shifts that change every week, setting aside the same hour to get to an office is almost impossible. With phone therapy you schedule sessions around that week's hours and talk in Spanish with a therapist licensed in Illinois, whether you're in Cicero, Aurora or Waukegan.
Rest of Illinois (Rockford, Joliet, Peoria and Springfield)
In smaller cities, people know each other, and it isn't easy to go to therapy without someone seeing you walk in. By phone, no one has to know: you talk from a private place with a therapist who isn't from your neighborhood but is licensed in Illinois and speaks your language.
We also serve people in Melrose Park, West Chicago, Carpentersville, Bolingbrook and the rest of the state.
