Rubi Lopez, LPC

Licensed Professional Counselor

Office Location: 

Navigating the intricacies of human experience has been the driving force behind my journey as a clinician. My academic journey began with a bachelor’s degree in criminology, which sparked my interest in understanding human behavior and the impact of trauma. This passion led me to pursue a master’s degree in Rehabilitation Counseling, equipping me with the skills to support individuals on their paths to recovery and resilience.

Discovering a profound commitment to trauma-focused therapy, I set out on the path to become a Licensed Professional Counselor. Currently enrolled in a doctoral program in International Psychology with a concentration in Trauma at The Chicago School of Professional Psychology, I specialize in trauma recovery, anxiety, depression, and addressing the effects of trauma on interpersonal relationships.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional Level II (CCTP-II), I’ve worked in diverse settings, including community and private practice, providing individual counseling to individuals. Actively participating in trauma-informed care initiatives and therapeutic communities, I am committed to creating a therapeutic space where clients can explore their concerns with safety and empathy.
