Ana Stefaniuk stands as a beacon of hope and healing, a true testament to the transformative power of empathy, understanding, and gentle guidance. Her approach is not merely a profession, but a calling, and she answers it with a grace and dedication that is both rare and inspiring.

When I first sought Ana's help, I was entangled in a toxic relationship that had left me deeply traumatized and lost. Years of gaslighting had eroded my self-confidence, and I was struggling to reconnect with my true self. Ana's gentle demeanor and non-judgmental approach created a safe haven for me, a space where I could unravel my confused thoughts and begin to heal.

Ana's relaxed and soothing presence is a balm for the soul. She has an uncanny ability to make you feel at ease, to create an environment where you can lower your guard and confront your deepest fears and insecurities. Her calm and composed demeanor is not just comforting, but also empowering. It gives you the strength to face your challenges head-on, knowing that you have a steadfast ally by your side.

What sets Ana apart is her wealth of tools and techniques. Her insight are invaluable, and her ability to inspire change is truly remarkable. I cannot recommend her enough. She is a beautiful soul, a true gem in the world of therapy, and anyone lucky enough to work with her will undoubtedly feel the same.

I see Ana Stefaniuk, and she is an absolute life changer. I’ve had mental health care on and off for 7+ years and with co-occurring disorders, it’s very difficult to find a skilled enough therapist who truly connects. Ana and I connected from the jump and I’ve seen her for well over a year. I cannot recommend her enough. She is incredibly caring and empathetic while maintaining accountability and keeping you on the right track for your mental health.

Illuminate therapy is such a wonderful place. Ana is kind, thoughtful, insightful, welcoming and so supportive. She is an amazing therapist. Janet’s energy class is very calming. I have learned so many tools from both of them and my health and wellness is better because of this place and the love and care they give. I am very grateful!

I do some business with both Greta & Ana. They are both solid, professional individuals. They radiate caring for their clients, their stuff, and they care deeply about the service they are offering to the community. I would highly recommend checking out Illuminate if you're looking for counseling services.

Greta Nielsen gave a wonderful presentation to parents at Hoffman Estate High School’s Family Engagement Event! She was engaging, informative, and knowledgeable on all topics surrounding mental health and how to support adolescents. It is evident that Greta and her practice are committed to providing mental health care to our community. We look forward to partnering with Greta for future events!

I recently had the opportunity of interacting with the staff at Illuminate Therapy and Wellness and I was impressed by their professionalism, passion for their patients, their varying specialties, and attention to every detail and nuance. I am also grateful for their quick workaround with COVID and ensuring safety for all. Could not recommend this practice enough if you or anyone you know is seeking therapy. Mental health matters, always.
