Jessica Drafke, Licensed Clinical Social Worker

I am a licensed clinical social worker who works with teens and adults. I earned her Bachelor’s degree at Loyola University Chicago and my Master’s of Social Work degree at Governor’s State University. I have clinical experience working in a private practice setting for the last 6 years. Previously I worked in an inpatient psychiatric setting. I specialize in working with individuals and families experiencing life transitions, relationship stress, anxiety, depression, emotional dysregulation, struggles with worklife balance, feelings of burnout, and thought errors. I believe that it is extremely important to tailor each treatment plan to the individual with the center of my approach being warmth, empowerment, and empathy. I believe in the importance of developing the therapeutic relationship through deep listening, a little bit of humor, and building trust in a safe, non-judgmental environment. I am committed to making sure that you have a positive and empowering therapy experience to ensure that you gain the ability to live life at your optimal level of wellness.
