LICENSED CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGIST IN ILLINOIS

Online Therapy for Adults in Evanston & Chicago, IL

Licensed psychologist with nearly 15 years of practice in Chicago, now offering virtual therapy to individuals and couples throughout Illinois.

My practice was based near Evanston, in the north side of Chicago for almost 15 years, working with individuals and couples navigating anxiety, depression, relationship issues, ADHD, and more. That same depth-oriented, collaborative approach is now available to clients in Chicago, Evanston, and throughout Illinois via secure telehealth.


If you're looking for a deeper approach to therapy, one focused on understanding what's underneath and working toward meaningful, lasting change, a free consultation call is a good place to start.

About Dr. Bennett

MATTHEW J. BENNETT, PSY.D. | LICENSED CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGIST | WISCONSIN LICENSE #5191-57 | PSYPACT AUTHORIZED

My practice was based on Chicago's north side for nearly 15 years before relocating to Wisconsin, and work with Chicago and Evanston-area clients continues via telehealth. Familiarity with the north side, the community, the professional culture, and the particular pressures of that context informs the practical, grounded approach we bring to every session.

With over 25 years of clinical experience overall, my approach is direct, depth-oriented, and collaborative. We focus on identifying the emotional patterns, internal conflicts, and past experiences that shape how you think, feel, and relate, and on creating changes that feel more natural and lasting over time.
