Meet Michelle Kos, Illinois Licensed Therapist
Michelle Kos is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and with over 15 years of experience helping others. She graduated from The Adler School of Professional Psychology Chicago. Michelle has a great deal of experience working with clients going through a wide range of mental health concerns, including depression, anxiety, hopelessness, anger, stress, and dysfunctional eating.
Michelle’s goal as a therapist is to create a safe place for her clients to discuss feelings openly and without judgment, in order to begin progress toward desired goals. Her approach to counseling is eclectic, focusing on the needs of her clients. A style she often finds very effective is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), focusing on how thoughts and behaviors interact.
“I focus with clients on making small actionable steps toward progress. When life hands us challenges, it can be overwhelming. I meet my clients where they are and work together to progress at their pace. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you to get you through whatever challenges life throws your way.”

DR. Allan Marks has helped my daughter two times and we cannot recommend them enough. My daughter has ADHD and can't wait in a waiting room forever. This was the fastest and easiest way to get my daughter diagnosed and pick up a script. One time we used this service when no other doctor was open. Plush care was available! My daughter didn't have to even leave the house in 6 degree weather (would have made her MORE SICK). She had severe sinus infection and Dr. was not only clear and nice but looked up holiday pharmacy hours ahead of time to make sure I could pick up the script in time! AWESOME! 2nd time went just as smooth. Thank you!

Wow. Wow. Wow. This is so easy and quick. I had a cold virus that turned into a sinus infection. I pulled over on my way to a meeting to video chat w a doctor. He was attentive, kind, and efficient. After a few questions, he diagnosed my ailment. The call took less than 10 mins. Prescription was at the pharmacy later that day. I will be a client for a long time. Thank you.

I never review Apps, but this has been the quickest and most convenient doctor experience(s) I’ve ever had. It cost me no more than what I would have paid to visit an office. I’ve had two appointments and one was done in the comfort of my own living room and the second on my break at work. As a full time worker, full time student, and full time mom, the convenience cannot be beat. I met with Dr. Saremi who is very personable and kind. He immediately resolved my reasons for calling during both appointments. He was competent and trustworthy and valued my time. Can’t recommend this enough.
