Joanna Czyz

Therapist

Virtual & in-person

10 West State Street, Geneva, IL

I'm Joanna Czyz, LCSW, MSW, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker dedicated to supporting children, preteens, adults, parents, and families through life's challenges. I have over 20 years of experience working with children in preschool and elementary education, which inspired my passion for helping individuals and families navigate emotional, behavioral, and relational difficulties.

I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma and PTSD, grief and loss, life transitions, relationship concerns, parenting challenges, self-esteem, and behavioral issues. As an attachment-, trauma-, and expressive-based therapist, I believe everyone deserves to feel worthy of care, compassion, and support. My goal is to provide a safe and supportive environment where clients feel understood, valued, and empowered as they move toward healing and personal growth.

I work with children ages 4 and older, preteens, adults, parents, and families, using evidence-based approaches tailored to each person's unique needs and goals.

Therapist

Virtual • Illinois


It’s exhausting when your own mind feels like a hurdle. Maybe you’re navigating intrusive thoughts that feel impossible to shut off, or you’re struggling to get things done and remember what’s important while your brain feels like it’s constantly misfiring. Perhaps you’re grieving a version of yourself that felt certain, watching the life you planned get derailed by chronic illness or the weight of a diagnosis you didn’t ask for. When your "to-do" list feels like a mountain and your past keeps creeping into your present, it’s easy to feel lost or, worse, dismissed by the people who are supposed to help.

Kalen Cobb

Kalen Cobb

Therapist

Virtual • Illinois


As a zillennial (member of both Millennials and Gen Z) Black woman, I love working with women and nonbinary femmes ages 18+. I know too well the pressures that come with being high-achieving, having marginalized identities, and simply existing in our bodies as people of color. Though each client has unique goals for their therapy journey, I believe that everyone deserves at least one space where they can fully be themselves. I feel most alive when working with clients who hold these identities and are navigating issues of anxiety, self-esteem, Gifted Kid Burnout, relationship challenges, or stress.

Therapist

Virtual • Illinois


Making that first call for therapy can feel overwhelming. If you’re here, you’re likely carrying something heavy, and you’re looking for someone who can sit in that space with you without judgment or pressure. I understand that, and I honor the courage it takes to reach out.

As a therapist, I believe healing happens within a relationship built on shared humanity—not a hierarchy. One of my favorite reminders comes from Brené Brown: “Compassion becomes real when we recognize our shared humanity.” I am not the healer and you are not the wounded. We are equals doing hard, meaningful work together.
