Steven Kahn

Steven Kahn

Therapist

Virtual • Illinois


I get it — because I’ve lived it, both professionally and personally.

Before becoming a therapist, I spent over two decades in the corporate world, most of it in consulting, helping people and organizations improve performance and well-being. I also built and ran a company of my own, so I understand firsthand the pressure, high stakes, and constant push to hold it all together that come with building something from the ground up.

And in my own relationships, I know what it takes to communicate honestly, navigate conflict, and stay connected — the same things I help my clients work through.

I work with individuals and couples of all ages on anxiety, depression, burnout, executive and career stress, life transitions, relationship issues, and communication skills. I’m deeply focused on the connection between physical and mental health — sleep, movement, nutrition, purpose, and connection aren’t side notes to me, they’re central to how I think about wellbeing.

I hold a BA in Psychology, a Master’s in Industrial-Organizational Psychology, and an MSW, but what matters most is how I show up: fully present, genuinely empathetic, and committed to being real with my clients — even when honesty is the harder thing to offer.

Outside the office, I’m a long-distance runner, a music lover, a cook, and a lifelong collector of sports and trading cards.

You might be the person everyone else depends on while quietly struggling yourself. Maybe your mind won't slow down, you overthink every decision, you're constantly distracted, or you're carrying stress that no one else seems to notice. Whether you're dealing with ADHD, anxiety, OCD, depression, or the pressure of trying to keep it all together, my goal is to help you feel understood, regain control, and start enjoying life again. I provide therapy in both English and Spanish and strive to create a space where you can be yourself without fear of judgment.
