CATALYST Therapy & Consulting

CATALYST Therapy & Consulting is a private therapy practice run by Jessica Ortiz, LCSW, a licensed clinical social worker. Her work centers on anxiety, chronic stress and burnout, family conflict, and difficult relationships, with a focus on helding adults who are functioning well but feel stretched thin. Sessions are conversational and aim to leave clients with practical strategies they can use right away. Parenting support and personal and professional growth coaching are also part of the practice, and Ortiz brings an education and program evaluation background along with clinical training in CBT, mindfulness-based stress reduction, and trauma-informed care.

Sessions take place in Barrington and online across Illinois. New clients can start with a complimentary consultation before booking a first session. The practice is at 117 S. Cook Street in Barrington, and the website also describes evaluation consulting work alongside the therapy.
