Carmen Lucia
Psy.D. Clinical Psychologist
Welcome and thank you for reaching out to me! Unfortunately, at this time I am unable to take on new clients. If you have not already done so, please to go www.psychologytoday.com for their Find a Therapist search engine. You will find many great clinicians there and can refine your search by health insurance, presenting problems, and other areas and can email directly from their profiles. Best of luck to you finding a great fit quickly!
I engage via telehealth and in-person. I use a confidential platform that is HIPAA compliant. Please feel free to share your preference with me.
If you are here, then you are going through something and are looking for guidance and support. Excellent first step! I am a licensed clinical psychologist in private practice since 2011. Originally from Chicago and a graduate of the Illinois School of Professional Psychology, I am a generalist who works with a full range of issues and disorders and a specialist in grief and loss.

Trained as a generalist, I help my clients address a vast range of concerns that they are having in their lives. I am also a grief specialist and have helped folks understand the process of grief and transition through painful losses to get to a more comfortable experience of their lives.
Grief can strike you if you lose a family member, partner, child, pet, job, or receive an alarming health diagnosis. Loss can come out of the blue and knock you over. Therapy can be instrumental in helping you navigate your thoughts, feelings, and even your body's reaction to loss.
I feel passionately about the challenges inherent in all forms of transition, adjustment to change, and how that impacts a person's evolution. I believe in the power of growth from experiences of pain and struggle as well as the importance of engaging mindfully in becoming the person you seek to be.
