When we can’t be your therapist, these clinicians can.
Not every therapeutic relationship is the right one, and we believe finding the right fit is part of healing. When Arena is unable to take you on as a client, these are the therapists we trust to carry that forward. Each clinician in this directory has been personally vetted by our team for their trauma-informed approach and their understanding of the intersection of abuse, survival, and justice.
This is a living page that we'll continue to update with new resources as we grow alongside our community.

Radiant Therapy + Wellness
The three of us met working at IYC-Chicago working with incarcerated teen boys. We are all very passionate about forensic work but have found it difficult to keep ourselves involved since transitioning to private practice, and thought the benign part of this directory would be a great outlet to continue to make an impact with the forensic population.

Dejah Amos, LMFT
I believe everyone holds the capacity to heal every part of their life. Using a comforting, trust-based approach grounded in genuineness, I help you leave shame and guilt at the door and reimagine life's difficulties. I have interests in men's mental health, life transitions, and couples work, driven by a desire to end the stigma around men showing emotion.
