I come to therapy with a background in education and theater, which has deeply shaped how I connect with people and understand the human experience. My work is rooted in helping individuals better define who they are, where they want to be, and what may be standing in the way of getting there.

I believe therapy is a collaborative process built on curiosity, honesty, and growth. Together, we’ll identify obstacles, explore patterns, and engage with challenges in a meaningful way until we find solutions that truly work for you. My goal is to provide a space where you feel understood, supported, and empowered to move forward with greater clarity and confidence.

I've spent 14 years helping people navigate their mental health. I believe you deserve a provider who truly knows you — not just your chart.

My work centers on psychiatric evaluation and medication management, and I take the time to fully understand what's going on before any treatment decisions are made. I'm direct, accessible, and committed to being a steady, consistent presence in your care.

Dr. Beverly Cox

Psychologist

Virtual • Illinois


I support adults facing anxiety, stress, relationship concerns, grief, or life transitions. I offer a calm, thoughtful space to talk through what you’re experiencing and begin making meaningful changes.

I’m a licensed clinical psychologist and Jungian analyst with extensive experience helping adults navigate emotional challenges, long‐standing patterns, and questions of identity and purpose. My work blends depth psychology with practical tools so you can understand yourself more fully and move toward a more grounded, authentic life.

Clients often come to me when they’re carrying a lot — stress, loss, uncertainty, or a sense that something needs to shift. I provide a steady, reflective environment where you can explore what’s happening beneath the surface and develop clarity about your next steps.
