Rachel Chwalik, LCPC

Psychotherapist
IL
Hi, I’m Rachel, a licensed clinical professional counselor and the founder of Candescent Counseling. I work primarily with teen girls and women navigating anxiety, trauma, depression, self-esteem struggles, and life transitions. Many of the clients I see come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward. My style is supportive and collaborative with a mix of gentle encouragement and straightforward feedback. I believe therapy should feel like a balance of being deeply understood while also being challenged to grow. If you’re looking for a space where you can show up as yourself, be heard, and start creating meaningful change, I’d love the opportunity to work together.
