Serving Adolescents in the ChicagoLand Area

@ ALL EROUND COUNSELING, the support you need is within your reach…

Social Work - Values and Ethics

Greetings from your Mental Health Provider:

Ericka Whitley

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, School Social Worker, and Certified Life Coach within the Chicago area. I began my career within the mental health profession in 2012, with the past 9 years inside the Chicago Public/ Charter School system. I’ve worked with those impacted by trauma, loss, violence, homelessness, and more. I’m a Chicago Native with a Master’s Degree in Social Work from the University of Illinois (UIC).

I love using a Strengths-based approach when working with clients, as I am a firm believer that everyone has something that makes them unique. I work to help clients see the glass as half full verses half empty. I consider myself a constant student of life, as there will always be something worth learning or discovering.

I would like to empower you with the tools necessary to create change, discover new passions, maintain balance, and or restore balance. I like to visualize myself as a gardener. Someone who plants seeds, but keeping in mind that those seeds can not grow without water. Hence, the client must be willing and ready to work towards the goal in order for that seed to grow.

At this time, All Eround Counseling provides individual therapy, adolescent group therapy, mental health workshops, and supervision for LSW’s.

I welcome the opportunity to work together
