Ally Macey, Pre-Licensed Professional. Supervised by Michael Villarreal, LCPC, NCC.

My clients describe me as:

I utilize warmth, humor, and compassion in my work. I am often described as casual and down to earth but utilize evidenced based strategies.

Something to know about my approach is:

I utilize internal family systems, emotionally focused therapy, and client-centered approaches to help clients address stuck areas of their lives. We will work together to identify and meet your needs so that you can live a more satisfying life.

Together, we will:

We will laugh and cry together as you explore your past and current experiences that bring pain and suffering into your life. We will delve into conversations you need to have and explore with kindness and compassion.

I specialize in working with people who:

have experienced trauma in their childhood and formative years that has developed into relationship issues, anxiety, depression, and other issues. I also specialize in working with couples who would like to strengthen their bond.

I became a therapist because:

I was inspired by my own experience in therapy and my lived experience with trauma. I wanted to help others the way I've been helped.

Something that stands out about where I offer therapy is:

I offer in person sessions in North Center in Chicago on Tuesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays and Streeterville on Thursdays.
