About Corliss Ivy

Welcome, and thank you for visiting my page! My name is Corliss Ivy. I’m a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and Certified Mental Health Integrative Medicine Provider, with over 18 years of experience caring for people. I work closely with people who want to take the best care of themselves as possible, and identify barriers that interfere with their ability to create the life they want.

I have an bachelor’s degree in Psychology from the University of Illinois at Chicago and a master’s degree in Counseling & Human Services from Roosevelt University in Chicago, Illinois. I completed post-graduate training in the Advanced Psychodynamic Fellowship in Clinical Practice with the University of Chicago, Social Service Administration.

I celebrate clients’ unique strengths and motives towards self-care. While I integrate the latest findings in psychodynamic psychotherapy, interpersonal neurobiology, cognitive behavioral therapy, and mindfulness, the core of my work center around partnering with clients to build a therapeutic relationship where they feel safe, supported, and deeply valued.

I welcome questions, thoughts, or an opportunity to connect and think together about how I can best support you!

“I have been through quite a few therapists but Corliss is the best one I’ve had. She listens carefully, validates you & gives insightful views on what can help. She has already helped me in the short time we have worked together and I look forward to our therapy sessions.”

“Corliss has been great to me. She listens to what I have to say and never judge me for anything. For being my first counselor, I feel greatful for having her. Coyld not ask for a better person to listen and read about me.”
