About Kiya
Dr. Kiya Immergluck helps people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship struggles, grief, and codependency. She is an Illinois Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and brings 41 years of professional experience to her work. Her approach emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion for each person who reaches out.
She listens first to understand what matters most to each client. Then she tailors conversations and a plan that fit the person's life and goals. That may mean working on coping skills for anxiety, addressing addictive behaviors, or sorting out intimacy and relationship patterns.
Her style is straightforward and supportive. She encourages practical steps clients can try between sessions and checks in on what is or is not helping. The aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes.
Dr. Immergluck has long experience across a range of concerns, including mood shifts, trauma and abuse, parenting strain, career questions, and issues related to sexual identity. She also addresses less common topics such as aging and geriatric concerns, BDSM and kink issues, and codependency.
People who choose her work with a therapist who will adapt to their needs, discuss options plainly, and support gradual change. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to the therapist's availability.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Dr. Immergluck uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on problem solving and skill building. One common approach emphasizes practical coping skills for anxiety and stress, teaching breathing, grounding, and behavior changes that reduce day-to-day overwhelm. Another approach focuses on understanding patterns in relationships and codependency, helping people recognize unhelpful dynamics and practice new ways of relating.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past, then try strategies that fit those needs. Adjustments are made over time so the direction of therapy stays useful and relevant.
