About Banan Said

I am a licensed clinical professional counselor in Illinois, specialized in youth development. With over a decade of experience, I am dedicated to working with young individuals, couples, and families, addressing a wide spectrum of mental health concerns. Emphasizing empathy in my therapeutic approach, I meet clients where they are, fostering an open and understanding environment that respects cultural and faith values. Proficient in Arabic, I possess a unique skill set in supporting Muslim youth, young professionals, and their families. I consider it a privilege to accompany individuals, couples, and families on their journeys toward a healthier and more fulfilling life. If you are seeking compassionate and culturally sensitive mental health support, I am here to walk with you as you navigate life’s challenges and achieve personal growth.
