Hi, I am Keight Dijkstra, a Licensed Social Worker (LSW). I have a deep commitment to help people navigate life’s challenges, and I bring a wealth of knowledge and empathy to my practice. I have many years of dedicated experience as a therapist and over a decade of experience in the helping industry. My journey in therapy began as a personal exploration of my own mental health, and it was through this experience that I realized the profound impact therapists can have on individuals. This realization motivated me to pursue a career in therapy, and I haven’t looked back since.
I earned my Bachelor’s Degrees in English and Women’s and Gender Studies from Loyola University Chicago in 2015, and in 2020, I achieved my Master’s in Social Work. My professional background includes stints at Inclusive Insight Counseling in Chicago and PATH Behavioral Healthcare in Cincinnati. What truly fuels my passion is working with fellow members of the trans and queer communities, survivors of trauma, and neuro-divergent individuals. These communities hold a special place in my heart, and I am dedicated to providing a safe and affirming space for their healing and growth.
My commitment to this field extends beyond my professional role. I have worked closely with survivors of sexual assault and domestic violence through a volunteer position at Resilience Chicago. As a therapist, I believe in continuous self-improvement and reflection, recognizing that my own growth contributes to my ability to support others effectively. I would love to partner with you on your journey toward healing and personal development, offering a compassionate, non-judgmental, and empathetic space where we can work together to overcome life’s challenges.
