Get to Know Your Therapist

Sesiree Adams, MSW, LCSW, I earned my Bachelor of Science in Family & Child Studies with an emphasis in Gerontology from Northern Illinois University and her Master of Social Work from the University of Illinois Chicago (UIC).

As a dedicated social worker with over 13 years of experience working with children, adolescents, and young adults, I have cultivated a profound understanding of the challenges and triumphs faced by these individuals and their families. My journey in this field has been deeply influenced by my personal experience as a parent of a child with a disability. This unique perspective allows me to connect authentically with my clients, fostering an environment of trust and empathy.

Throughout my career, I have been committed to advocating for the rights and needs of vulnerable populations. My work encompasses not only providing support and guidance but also empowering my clients to navigate the complexities of their circumstances. I believe in a holistic approach, recognizing the importance of family involvement and community resources in the healing and growth process.

I am passionate about creating positive change in the lives of those I serve, and I view every challenge as an opportunity for growth and resilience. My dedication to advocacy extends beyond my professional role; it is a personal mission that drives me to continually learn, adapt, and strive for better outcomes for my clients.

In every interaction, I aim to uplift and support, ensuring that each young person I work with feels heard, valued, and equipped to overcome obstacles. My experience, both personal and professional, fuels my commitment to this vital work, and I am excited to continue making a meaningful impact in the lives of children and families.

I prioritize self-care by dedicating personal time to myself and finding inspiration through motivational quotes that help me navigate my day.
