Starting therapy can feel like a big step—but it doesn’t have to feel intimidating.

Audrey Regan, LLPC, is now accepting new clients and currently offers evening appointments from 5:00 PM–8:00 PM, with Saturday openings coming soon.

She provides a calm, supportive space for people balancing full schedules who still need time for themselves. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, stress, relationship challenges, or just feeling stuck, therapy is a place to slow things down and sort things out with support.

A little about Audrey:

🎧 Music that resets her mood
⏰ Snooze button regular (no judgment here)
🌿 Days off spent recharging and keeping things simple
💭 Like most people, always working on small habits and growth
✨ What matters most: helping people feel understood and supported

Her approach to therapy:

Audrey keeps sessions grounded, collaborative, and real. She often starts with, “What’s been weighing on you lately?” and meets you exactly where you are.

Clients describe her style as warm, honest, and collaborative, with a focus on the things that may seem “small” but often carry the most weight.

A steady reminder in her work: You don’t have to carry everything alone.

Insurance accepted:
• Aetna
• Blue Care Network
• Blue Cross Blue Shield
• Priority Health
• McLaren Medicaid

💳 Private pay options available
⚠️ Unable to bill Medicare at this time

If evenings are the only time you can make space for yourself, they still count.

Have you noticed your mood changing with the seasons?

✨ Evening Appointments Available Starting the Week of 04/06/2026! ✨

Audrey believes the therapeutic relationship is the foundation for meaningful change and strives to create a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered. She earned her Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Northwestern University in 2025 and began her career in the nonprofit sector, providing therapy and facilitating support groups in shelter settings while working with diverse clients across Chicago. Audrey helps individuals navigate life transitions, strengthen relationships, and build greater self-awareness and resilience through a primarily person-centered approach that also incorporates cognitive behavioral and psychodynamic perspectives to meet each client’s unique needs.

If you’ve been thinking about starting therapy, now is a great time to connect.
