After having just one conversation with her, you will be aware of how much she loves hearing people's stories and is passionate about understanding where each individual is coming from.

I have been seeing Amanda for a few months now for grief counseling, since I moved to the area, and she is such a bright spot in my week! She is so kind, caring, and compassionate, and so down to earth and fun to be around. Her office is extremely cozy and it feels like you're sitting in your friend's living room talking one on one. She immediately puts you at ease. Amanda has given me lots of new ways to see things, and always remembers important details of your life. She is absolutely one of my favorite people in all of Chicago!

I…read morewas referred to Aysha after my previous therapist moved out of the state, and I have been so thrilled - I think Aysha and I have had a better connection than any other other counselor/therapist I've worked with in the past. I like her so much that I've navigated and fought through a myriad of insurance issues, including having to suck up and pay out-of-pocket for services. Aysha has been so wonderful and understanding through it all, and of course has continued to help me sort out all kinds of long and short-term issues that have prompted me to see therapy. She has flexible hours (LOVE Saturday appointment availability) and is very responsive to emails and phone calls/texts. In short, I would recommend her (and Simply Counseling) without reservation. Oh, have I mentioned that I'm a mental health professional myself? :)

Aysha has counseled me and my fiancee for over a year to date and the sessions have changed our…read morelives. We simply decided to begin pre-marital counseling because we valued talk therapy and figured it could only be healthy. Little did we know how many communication breakdowns we would be empowered to identify and improve week-after-week. The laughter and tears and happiness and anger which we are free and safe to express with Aysha -- and use to become closer to one another -- is priceless. Aysha has become a crucial part of our relationship. We regularly walk away from our sessions with so much to talk about and in a great place to share our feelings even better than before. And through our weeks, we consistently recall her counseling and refer to her insight. She is truly adept at listening to us and understanding us, but most important, she's helped us better listen and understand each other. I would recommend her to any couple in any level of satisfaction. She's helped us grieve through loss and celebrate each other alike.

Barbaba Noonan emailed me saying she had 10 am and noon slot open for that day. After emailing back and forth with her, we agreed on meeting at 10 am on October 4th. She didn't show up on that day and sent me link for 8 am meeting for next day. I had asked her via email to send me the meeting link for the day we agreed to meet. She didn't respond and wasted my time by not appearing. On 5th of October she emailed me and tried to push me into meeting with her. I called to urban balance to refund the amount that I had pre paid for the meeting but they kept me telling I should contact billing department. WHY SHOULD I SPEND MY TIME TO CONTACT ANYONE WHEN ITS THEIR FAULT? I emailed back to the therapist to not push me into getting myself for the meeting that we did not agreed upon with a screenshot of our prior email in which she had agreed to have a meeting on 4th of October. The therapist didn't even bothered to apologize for wasting my time and money. She has now scheduled 3 more appointments with me which I can see on my urban balance dashboard. I am mind-blown with her audacity. I wanted to love this place but they are irresponsible bunch of people.

Sarah has a keen sense of connecting to areas of my body that relate to my emotional state. She helps me find a place of centering and calming - while together we work to reset my body's knowing of safety and security. When my anxiety is at it's highest, one of my known resets is connecting to my breath. During really stressful or highly emotional times, I find myself rushing around and almost feel like I'm forgetting to breathe. The breathing I am doing when I am under stress is far from experiencing the deep, calming breath that comes easily when I'm in session with her. The relief that I feel... it's a shift that happens when I allow myself to surrender and accept through Reiki. This care is an act of self-love. Sarah's started using some visualization techniques during our sessions that help me connect my mind to familiar places of calm, ease and happiness.

Dr. Maggie Crowley is, without question, the best therapist I've ever worked with and I admit that…read moreI was a lot to deal with in that era. She strikes the perfect balance between sharp insight and genuine compassion. She's relatable, down-to-earth, and refreshingly free of pretension--yet her expertise shines through in every session. One moment with Dr. Crowley that I will never forget was when I was struggling to define myself by my circumstances after brain surgery, feeling stuck and disconnected from who I had been before. I had to stop working and had some issues with my vision and it was difficult as someone in my 30s. She gave me an analogy that changed my perspective completely: she said to think of my life as a football field, and that it wouldn't be fair to judge myself solely by the last 10 (or 20?) yards without looking at the whole field. That insight has stayed with me for all these years, and it still reminds me to see my life in its full, rich context. If you're looking for someone who will truly listen, challenge you in meaningful ways, and help you grow, Dr. Crowley aka Maggie is it. She's exceptional at what she does, and I couldn't recommend her more highly. I still think about her advice and the progress we made. She is phenomenal.
