Yael Hess

LCSW (She/Her/Hers)

About me:

It’s nice to meet you! Originally from Pittsburgh, PA, I have called Chicago home since moving here in 2011 after graduating from The University of Michigan with my B.A. in Psychology. I returned to school to receive my Masters in Social Work at Loyola University Chicago with a child and family track. I have grown to love working with all aspects of family, including working with children and adolescents, providing parenting support during stressful parenting stages, and exploring family of origin relationships with adults. After becoming a mom myself, I became credentialed in Maternal Mental Health, providing services for those experiencing infertility, pregnancy loss, and post-partum depression, anxiety and OCD. I love having the opportunity to support others and offer a safe space to those in need. I know starting therapy can be hard! I will work with you at your own pace. I believe fully that each individual has the strength it takes to reach their full potential. I will be here to guide you along the way.
