Mariya Blue, LCSW

Psychotherapist
IL
Hey, I see you. You've been holding it together for a long time-functioning, achieving, even excelling in some areas of life. But inside, it's exhausting. Maybe your relationships feel complicated, or you're stuck in old patterns that you know aren't serving you, but you can't seem to break free. Maybe anxiety is always running in the background, making even small decisions feel heavier than they should. Or life just threw you a curveball, and suddenly, everything feels unsteady. You don't have to navigate this alone. Therapy isn't about “fixing” you-because you're not broken. It's about understanding yourself on a deeper level, making sense of the past so it stops running the show, and learning how to move forward in a way that feels authentic and aligned. It's about untangling the knots that keep you stuck and figuring out what you actually want, not just what you've been told you should want. I earned my Master's in Social Work from Loyola University Chicago, and I bring that foundation to our work together. I get that humor can be a lifeline (yes, even the dark kind), and this space is one where you can bring your whole self-messy thoughts, complicated feelings, and all. Together, we'll dig into the hard stuff, but we'll also find moments of relief, insight, and maybe even laughter along the way. You don't have to keep running on autopilot. If you're ready to start making real, lasting changes, I'm here. Let's talk.

What should a new client know about working with you?

Using CBT, I provide tools and strategies to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, fostering practical, immediate improvements. Through psychodynamic therapy, we explore how past experiences and unconscious patterns shape current relationships and emotions. With attachment theory as a foundation, I help clients understand and strengthen their relational bonds, promoting deeper self-awareness and connection.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

My goal is to create a compassionate and collaborative space where you feel empowered to grow, heal, and make lasting changes. Together, we’ll work toward building a more fulfilling and balanced life.
