Sydney Lawings, LCSW

Psychotherapist
IL
Making the decision to participate in therapy can be powerful and, for some, also overwhelming. Oftentimes, a sense of hesitation stops us from moving forward. Congratulations on your decision to move ahead! Through therapy, I work with clients to continue their journey by creating a space that allows them to be themselves and helps create awareness of the initial reason(s) for coming in while also working through what may arise in the present moment. During our journey toward our best selves, we may need someone alongside us as we work to understand the different challenges that arise. I’m Sydney and have been fortunate to work with children, adolescents, and adults as they experience a variety of challenges and roadblocks that impact not only how they see themselves in the world but also how they can accomplish their goals. I utilize a strength-based and trauma-informed lens to tailor specific goals for each client. I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW). I received my Bachelor of Arts degree in Sociology with a Minor in Leadership Studies from Hampton University and my Master’s degree in Social Work from the University of Chicago. I previously worked as a therapist in child welfare, where I conducted individual counseling using the theoretical frameworks of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), person-centered therapy, and psychodynamic theory. I am currently working on my certification for Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT). I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and adults struggling with a wide variety of issues such as self-esteem, relationship issues, trauma, adjustment disorder, and more. I cannot wait to meet you and work alongside you on your journey!
