Ann Surber, LCSW

Psychotherapist
IL
I believe therapy is about the transformative potential of being in relationship. Whether you are seeking to address emotional concerns, improve connections with others, or deepen self knowledge, change begins when we have a place where we feel truly seen and understood. We all have a story to tell, shaped by our personal histories and expressed in the here-and-now ways we relate to ourselves and others. I am here to listen to your unique story and support you with making sense of your inner world in a safe, compassionate environment. This process brings clarity and relief, and can broaden your capacity to live more authentically. Psychotherapy offers an opportunity to learn more about what we can and can’t see for ourselves. Together, we’ll create a space grounded in curiosity about your life. Our honest, reflective conversations will explore your feelings, thoughts, and experiences, deepening awareness of patterns, behaviors, and underlying dynamics. I help my patients through moments of pain and uncertainty, while also making room for joy, surprise, and creativity to emerge. Putting words to our experiences can be a powerful way to create meaning and attend to what happens inside of us. It takes tremendous courage to share those words with someone else, and I have a deep respect for the process and what unfolds through time, trust, and genuine connection. Please reach out with any questions or to schedule a consultation.

What should a new client know about working with you?

As a therapist, I strive to balance an attuned stance that is nonjudgmental, thoughtfully challenging, and playful. I receive ongoing training and consultation in psychodynamic and psychoanalytic psychotherapy. I typically see clients weekly, with the option to meet more frequently when it feels supportive of deeper work. I see individuals from all backgrounds, and have extensive experience working with young adults, BIPOC, LGBTQ+, and those looking for support with trauma.
