John Wall (they/them)

Accepting Clients

Heya! I'm a queer, non-binary (they/them), and polyamorous therapist based in Chicago.

Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist in Chicago, IL

About My Clients

Most often, I see clients regarding issues related to depression, anxiety, communication issues, boundary management, trauma, neurodiversity, discrimination, life transitions, substance use, and premarital/marital counseling. I am happy to work with anyone! More specifically, I'm an LGBTQ-affirmative therapist. My clinical and research focuses include consensually non-monogamous relationship needs, gender expansive needs and experiences, and LGBQ issues and experiences.

My Background and Approach

In therapy, I feel it's essential to look not only at our own thoughts and emotions but also the expectations of others around us. I use affirmative, trauma-informed, and relational lenses to better understand the assumptions and behaviors we use to survive the structures around us. Navigating the world as queer, non-binary, and neurodiverse; I have been significantly impacted by these structures. Managing these impacts took critically examining how I was taught about the intersection of all of my identities. This is a space I have worked on creating with clients for the past 6 years. This is a space I hope to offer you in our work together. We will focus on creating a safe and collaborative atmosphere so you can supportively share any challenges and explore possible solutions. I invite you to identify your personal needs and work towards potential goals, while we understand the impact of relationships, systems, and our own personal narratives.
