Dr. Amy Kingan, PsyD

Psychologist
707 Lake Cook Rd, Ste 105, Deerfield, IL
I have always been interested in human relationships. Why do we pick the same types of friends or partners over and over again expecting a different outcome? Why do people experiencing similar obstacles or traumas have very different responses? These questions inspired me to study psychology at National Louis University, where I earned my PsyD. I wanted to help people learn about themselves, develop skills to have better relationships, and practice coping strategies to overcome life's challenges. My goal is to make the therapeutic relationship a safe place for you to share your feelings, explore your relationships, and develop skills to live a happier, more fulfilling life. I believe open communication and trust within that safe space are the first steps to developing healthier relationships.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I want to create an environment that is welcoming and inclusive. Everyone comes to therapy with different values, strengths, and backgrounds unique to them, my goal is to utilize these qualities to create a client centered approach to treatment.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

Finding the right therapist is one of the most fundamental aspects in therapy. In the initial session, I will discuss what you are looking for, your expectations and how we can best work together to meet your needs.
