Hi, I’m Michelle Joos, LPC. I’m passionate about helping people of all ages navigate life’s ups and downs with compassion, understanding, and evidence-based care. I work with children, adolescents, and adults throughout Illinois, offering support for a wide range of mental health challenges.

In my practice, I provide individual, group, couples, and family therapy. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, or going through a major life transition, I’m here to help you feel supported and empowered every step of the way. I strive to create a warm, inclusive space where you feel safe, heard, and truly understood.

I have a special interest in working with individuals who are living with ASD, ADHD, PTSD or trauma, and those navigating alcohol and drug use issues.

Outside the therapy room, I love spending time outdoors—traveling, camping, and hiking with my partner and our two dogs. Nature helps me stay grounded, and I encourage my clients to discover self-care practices that align with their own values and interests.
