Talia Shaked, MA

With nine years of experience as a therapist and counselor in both the U.S. and abroad, I
specialize in treating complex trauma. My goal is to help clients feel comfortable in their own
skin and discover their purpose. Together, we identify triggers and resolve stress from past
experiences, with tailored, compassionate, person-centered solutions for each individual’s needs.
Our success comes from the integration of person-centered, trauma-informed, and
somatic therapeutic approaches. You will find yourself in an environment that is relaxed,
judgment-free, genuine, and unconditionally supportive so you feel welcomed, seen and heard.

After recently moving back to the United States, I am currently pursuing my Illinois LCPC. I
completed my B. ED from Oranim School of Education in 2013. I earned a Graduate Certificate
in counseling from Tel-Hai Academic College in 2016 and I completed an MA in Art Therapy
from the Academic College of Society and the Arts in 2019.

I understand that making the first call can be difficult, but I’m here to listen and support you. If
you leave a message, I will return your call the same day. Your time is valuable, and it’s a
privilege to help you on your journey to mental wellness.
