Yael Hess

LCSW (She/Her/Hers)

About me:

It’s nice to meet you! Originally from Pittsburgh, PA, I have called Chicago home since moving here in 2011 after graduating from The University of Michigan with my B.A. in Psychology. I spent a few years teaching and developing curriculum for preschool age students. During that time, I realized my passion for supporting individual children and their families who were struggling with challenges at home. I returned to school to receive my Masters in Social Work at Loyola University Chicago. I have been practicing social work since 2016 and began working in private practice in 2020. I love having the opportunity to support others and offer a safe space to those in need. I know starting therapy can be hard! I will work with you at your own pace. I believe fully that each individual has the strength it takes to reach their full potential. I will be here to guide you along the way.
