Jackie Anonales, LPC, is a bilingual therapist offering virtual therapy across Illinois. As a first-generation Mexican-American, Jackie understands the unique challenges that come with balancing family expectations, cultural identity, and mental health, especially for young Latina professionals and students.
Her therapy style is warm, collaborative, and goal-oriented. Jackie creates a supportive space where clients feel safe to explore who they are, where they come from, and where they want to go. Whether you’re feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck in a pattern that no longer serves you, she’ll meet you with compassion and curiosity.
Jackie uses a client-centered, trauma-informed approach, incorporating narrative therapy and cultural responsiveness. She works closely with Latinx individuals navigating stress, relationship challenges, identity questions, and grief. Through this work, she helps clients reconnect with their inner strength and begin to rewrite their story on their own terms.
She believes that healing doesn’t erase your past, it transforms how you carry it.
"Therapy can be a space to stop surviving and start becoming who you truly are"
We know Latinx mental health is shaped by more than stress. Things like language, family loyalty, shame and gender roles al impact how we carry and express pain. You don’t have to translate your story here-we get it.
Jackie helps Latinx teens and adults with anxiety, grief, and relationship issues. She uses client-centered, trauma-informed, and culturally responsive approaches.
