Dr. Kiya Immergluck, LCPC

Dr. Kiya Immergluck is an Illinois-licensed clinical professional counselor with 41 years of experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, LGBT-related concerns, relationship strain, depression, grief, and life changes. She approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Her style is steady and practical, aimed at supporting real change over time.

In sessions she listens first and then shapes a plan around the person in front of her. That plan can include coping skills for anxiety, strategies to manage addictive behaviors, and tools to repair or rethink relationships. She also supports people working through parenting stress, career shifts, intimacy questions, and the emotional impact of illness or aging.

Dr. Immergluck adapts how she works to each person’s needs and goals. She focuses on clear steps and ongoing collaboration rather than one-size-fits-all solutions. She encourages people to use their strengths while learning new ways to handle setbacks and difficult feelings.

Her approach draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address trauma, depression, ADHD, bipolar concerns, and compassion fatigue. She frames therapy as a partnership where clients set goals and try practical strategies between sessions. The emphasis is on gradual progress and building skills that fit daily life.

People who reach out will be asked about their priorities and current challenges. From there she helps set achievable goals and tracks progress as therapy continues.

Approaches that guide online work and progress

Dr. Immergluck uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people build coping skills and make practical changes. One approach focuses on learning concrete skills to manage anxiety and stress, such as breath work, grounding, and structured problem-solving. These techniques are useful for day-to-day distress and improving emotional regulation.

Another common thread involves behavior-focused strategies to address addictions and compulsive patterns. This work looks at triggers, develops alternative responses, and sets up stepwise goals to reduce harmful behavior and strengthen healthier routines.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative step. She will talk with each person about their goals, past efforts, and what feels workable. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them as progress is made.

Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm the available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people continue care if they relocate or are outside Illinois, since she accepts international clients.
