“I felt that Dr. Erica Kapalamula was a great therapist choice from as early as the first session. It feels like she's really listening and gathering what I share and has provided valuable lessons and tools in such a short time. I also value how she explains her approach and some of the tools that she is using or things that she notices.”

Getting to know Mtisunge Erica Kapalamula

So you survived a pandemic, losses, and uncertainty? Resilience is within you. My name is Dr. Erica, and I am a psychotherapist and professor in the Chicago and Northwest Indiana area. I hold a Master's in Mental Health Counseling and a PhD from Adler University. I believe that we all possess abilities within us that can help us overcome the most difficult of times. Let us work together to use that same resilience to overcome other life stressors, be it anxiety, depression, or relationship problems. I provide virtual sessions that allow you to sit in the comfort of your home while we explore possibilities for relieving the stress or discomfort you are experiencing. Empathy, openness, and being nonjudgmental are some things that I hold dear to my practice. If you are tired of struggling in silence and feel like enough is enough, reach out today and let us work together to find possible solutions to the problem.

What should a new client know about working with you?

After our first session, my hope is that you will feel comfortable and understood. My goal in therapy is to work with you to ensure that we can establish clear measurable solutions to the problems that you present. I take time in getting to know my clients to ensure that we can work collaboratively to address presenting concerns. It is my hope that the solutions that we come up with can serve you in the long run as opposed to offering temporary solutions.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
