Person-centered therapy for meaningful change

Adele Duba-Nagel is an Illinois Licensed Clinical Social Worker (IL LCSW 149029181) with more than 12 years of clinical experience helping people manage grief and loss, trauma, relationship and family conflicts, motivation and self-esteem challenges, and addictions.
She practices from a person-centered, strengths-based perspective that treats clients as the experts of their own stories. Her approach is collaborative and goal-focused, and she aims to meet clients where they are rather than labeling people as “having problems” or “being a problem”.
In therapy she works with the whole person - exploring physical and mental health, core beliefs and life history, living and working environments, and what gives life meaning and purpose. Sessions are shaped by each client’s goals as they identify strengths, face challenges, and build coping skills to improve confidence, relationships, and enjoyment of life.
As a female, older therapist practicing in Illinois, Adele values the courage it takes to begin therapy and is pleased when clients place their trust in her care. She views healing as a process of discovery and change, and supports clients as they uncover their best selves and pursue more meaningful connections and greater life satisfaction.
Many people wonder whether online therapy truly helps. For common concerns - such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, or navigating life changes - online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions.
One of the main advantages is flexibility - individuals can connect with a therapist in the format that feels most comfortable, whether through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. That flexibility often makes it easier to fit therapy into daily routines.
All participating therapists are licensed professionals, and clients may choose to switch therapists at any time if they want a different fit. For many people, online therapy provides an accessible and effective option for addressing everyday mental health and relationship concerns.
