About
As a Black woman and trauma-informed therapist, I blend evidence-based tools with culturally responsive care to help clients quiet anxiety, heal wounds that didn’t start with them, and break generational cycles—because survival can be part of your story without becoming your legacy.
I’m Khaliah Marsh, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with eight years of experience supporting children, teens, and adults in school, community mental health, and private practice settings. I earned my MSW from Loyola University Chicago and help clients navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, generational trauma, self-esteem, relationship challenges, and life transitions. Using CBT, DBT, ACT, mindfulness, narrative, and expressive therapy, I’ll meet you where you are and help you build tools that fit your real life—because therapy isn’t about perfection; it’s about becoming 1% better each day.
I work with children, teens, and adults using a warm, honest, creative, and age-appropriate approach. I’m EMDR-trained and use SFBT, CBT, DBT, mindfulness, narrative, expressive, and play therapy to address anxiety and trauma. Clients can expect sessions where conversation, creativity, and practical tools support understanding, confidence, and growth.
You don’t have to be in crisis to deserve support or know exactly what to say when you arrive. Therapy should give you room to be honest, feel understood, and be challenged without judgment. If you’re ready to understand yourself and make changes that improve your real life, schedule an appointment. Insight matters—but what you do with it changes everything.

With nearly 2 decades in community mental health, I bring a caring, empathetic, and respectful approach grounded in the belief that—with the right support and motivation—every person has the capacity to grow and create a healthier, more fulfilling life.
I am a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) with 18 years of experience supporting individuals through anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, stress, and self-esteem concerns. I take a collaborative, strengths-based, and compassionate approach to help clients build confidence, develop healthier patterns, and create meaningful change in their lives. I strive to provide a warm, grounded, and empowering therapeutic space where you can feel supported, understood, and encouraged to grow.
I earned my master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling from Valparaiso University. My work integrates solution-focused, client-centered, and goal-oriented approaches, using empathetic listening and practical strategies to help clients gain insight, strengthen coping skills, and make steady, meaningful progress toward their personal goals.
You deserve support that feels compassionate, positive, and free of judgment. Whatever you’re carrying, you don’t have to manage it alone. I’m here to listen, understand, and walk with you at your pace. When you’re ready, I’d be honored to support you on your journey toward greater peace, clarity, and emotional well-being.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

Teen counseling helps young individuals better understand and manage the challenges that affect their mental health. Common challenges amongst teens include anxiety, depression, ADHD, and problematic relationships with food.
Teen counseling works by using multiple techniques, tailored to fit the teen’s unique needs — based on their age group, their challenges, and the severity of their challenges. It might involve cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, art therapy, and others for varying ages. In any case, Thriveworks teen therapists in Evergreen Park have the expertise and experience to help young individuals at their level.
Signs that teens might need Teen counseling can be very subjective, as they are experiencing many changes and can have intense reactions to them. As parents, you know your child best and are best equipped to judge whether certain reactions are standard behaviors for your teen or whether they might be hinting at a larger problem. Even so, there are a few common signs and events that often point to a need for therapy, such as experiencing divorce or loss, grief, consistent low moods, teens distancing themselves and becoming isolated, losing interest in hobbies, excessive anger or irritability, substance use issues, and suicidal ideation, among others.
Teen counseling providers at Thriveworks in Evergreen Park, IL offer both in person and online therapy by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The length of teen counseling depends on your teen’s needs as well as the goals that you and their therapist might have for them. Generally, teen counseling sessions will last for several months.
Includes individual, couples, child/ teen, & family therapy
Includes reducing symptoms with medication & management
