About Kiya

Dr. Kiya Immergluck helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, and depression. She also supports those dealing with relationship struggles, grief, intimacy concerns, and LGBT-related challenges. Dr. Immergluck brings 41 years of clinical experience and works from Illinois as an LCPC - Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor.

She approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Conversations and plans are adapted to the specific needs of the person sitting across from her. Sessions focus on practical steps that can be used between meetings to manage symptoms and improve day-to-day life.

Her background includes long practice with people navigating trauma, family problems, parenting strain, and career transitions. She has helped clients who face addiction, bipolar challenges, anger, low self-esteem, and loneliness. Additional focuses include aging and geriatric issues, cancer-related concerns, and alternative sexuality topics such as BDSM and kink.

Dr. Immergluck emphasizes collaboration. She listens to what matters most, then works with the person to set clear, realistic goals. That can mean short-term coaching, longer therapeutic work, or a mix of both depending on needs.

Her style is straightforward and warm. She offers practical tools, supportive conversation, and a step-by-step approach to change. For people seeking a therapist who balances experience with down-to-earth guidance, she aims to be a steady, encouraging partner in the process.

Approaches and online therapy that fit your life

Dr. Immergluck uses evidence-based techniques that focus on concrete change. One common approach helps people identify unhelpful patterns in thinking and behavior, then practices new ways of responding to stress and anxiety. This method suits those looking to reduce worry, manage mood swings, or cut down on addictive habits.

Another approach emphasizes skills for handling strong emotions and improving relationships. It teaches tools for managing anger, increasing emotional awareness, and improving communication around intimacy or conflict. That work can help people facing relationship strain, grief, or family-origin issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She listens to your goals, current struggles, and what feels manageable, then adapts techniques to fit your life. The process is collaborative and paced to your needs, whether you want short-term coaching or longer therapy.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when it helps. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to fit brief check-ins into a busy day or to reach out between sessions. These options help make consistent support more accessible for people with varied schedules.
