Reagan Sword, MA

My name is Reagan Sword, and I hold a B.A. in Fine Art from Columbia College Chicago and a Master of Arts in Counseling: Art Therapy. As a pre-licensed counselor and art therapist, my approach is integrative and tailored to each client's unique needs. I draw from strengths-based, person-centered, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and art therapy techniques to support individuals' personal growth. While working towards my licensure at Rosewatter Chicagoland Counseling, I will primarily be supervised by Sarah Jeziorski, LCPC.

My experience includes supporting clients dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, and grief. I have also worked considerably with older adults who are managing a cancer diagnosis or medical condition. I am particularly excited about expanding my work with adolescents, as I am interested in helping young people navigate their unique challenges and developmental stages.

I am passionate about assisting clients in discovering their strengths and achieving their goals. My priority is to empower people to feel more confident in managing life's challenges. I believe therapy is a collaborative journey where you are the expert on your own life, and I provide support, resources, and guidance to help you along the way.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my cats, watching reality TV, painting, reading, yoga, and exploring new foods. These activities help me stay balanced and energized, so I can best support my clients!
