Licensed Online Counseling for Teens and Adults Across Illinois
Online Therapy in Illinois
You often wonder,
“Why does everyone else seem to have it together but me?”
Your mind won’t shut off at night. You’re holding it together at work and running on empty at home, and finding the right therapist feels like one more thing on the list.
You Are Not Alone: Online Therapy for Illinois Residents
The good news is that you don’t have to keep carrying this by yourself, or settle for whoever is closest.
Online therapy lets you work on anxiety, trauma, depression, and burnout from anywhere in Illinois: on your lunch break in the Loop, after the kids are in bed in Naperville or Schaumburg, or from home in Peoria, Champaign, or a small town where the nearest trauma specialist is more than an hour away.
Together, we’ll figure out what keeps you stuck, build skills you can use between sessions, and work toward a life that feels steadier and more like yours.
Teletherapy Is Available Now Throughout Illinois
Hi, I’m Krissy White, MA, LPC-S. I’m licensed to provide counseling in Illinois, Texas, and Maine, and I’ve been helping clients grow and heal since 2012.
I know how hard life can feel, partly because I’ve lived with anxiety myself. I know what it’s like to wake up already running through every “what if,” to have seven backup plans for things that will never happen, and to worry constantly about being judged and what other people think.
But you know what? I got tired of letting anxiety call the shots!
That’s what I want for you, too. I want to help you find your joy again and actually enjoy your life instead of watching it pass you by.
My office is in Katy, Texas, and I meet with my Illinois clients by secure video. As a certified Brainspotting therapist, I pair Brainspotting with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, so you leave with practical tools and not just insight. I also supervise counselors working toward licensure in Illinois.
Learn more about my approach on the About page, or see my rates and availability.

You got this, and I’m right here. From Chicago to the suburbs to downstate, we can start online therapy wherever you are in Illinois and work through the hard things together.
Why Online Therapy in Illinois?
Convenience
No sitting in traffic on the Kennedy or driving an hour each way from a small town. We share Central Time, with day and evening appointments Monday through Thursday and Fridays by request.
Privacy
Therapy from your couch, your parked car, or an office with the door closed. In a smaller Illinois town where everyone knows everyone, there’s no chance of running into a neighbor in the waiting room.
Specialty
Choose the therapist whose training fits what you need, not just whoever is nearby. Online therapy gives you access to a certified Brainspotting therapist anywhere in Illinois, even far from Chicago.
Common Questions About Online Therapy in Illinois
-
Yes. Because of licensing rules, you need to be physically located in Illinois (or Texas or Maine) during each session. If you’ll be traveling, let me know ahead of time and we’ll plan around it.
-
I’m licensed to provide counseling in Illinois, so you can meet with me from anywhere in the state by secure, HIPAA compliant video. Illinois and Texas are both on Central Time, so the time you book is the time we meet, with no conversion needed.
-
Yes. A distinction I make with clients is that the screen isn’t a barrier. We just set up your space a little differently, with your device at eye level and a spot to focus on. If online Brainspotting isn’t a good fit for what you’re working on, I’ll tell you honestly.
-
I’m a private-pay practice. A 50-minute session is $200 and a 90-minute session is $250. If your plan has out-of-network mental health benefits, I can give you a superbill you can submit for possible reimbursement.
-
Not always. Online therapy works well for people who want flexibility and privacy. If you need more support than weekly sessions can offer, I’ll help you find care closer to home in Illinois. If you’re in crisis right now, call or text 988 to reach the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline any time.
