TOYANNA BEATHEA

 Hello, my name is Toyanna!

I’ve always had a passion for helping people get through the most difficult challenges and transitions in their life, which has led me to choosing Social work as a profession and now working at this private practice. I earned my Bachelor’s Degree in Social Work with a minor in psychology from Western Illinois University. Then in 2022, I graduated from Aurora University with my Master’s Degree in Social Work. 

Over the years I gained skills, knowledge, and experience volunteering and working in different client-centered settings. While working with children, adolescents, older adults, and individuals with disabilities and mental, emotional, or behavioral disorders I learned that connection is key. Building a trusting, healthy relationship with individuals is essential to one’s entire treatment process. As a therapist I will use my academic knowledge, professional expertise, and an open mindset towards ongoing learning to help clients improve their lives, one step at a time. 

Outside of work, I enjoy doing yoga, listening to a good podcast, playing games or crafting with friends and family! My Fiancé and I have two children who we love spending time with, and going on adventures!
