Licensed Clinical Psychologist
Rufus Gonzales, Ph.D.
Welcome
I am a licensed psychologist and clinical assistant professor at Loyola University Chicago. As a therapist my aim is to empower clients to create positive change. Change can come about internally through self-understanding, or externally through your approach to the world and relationships. Family, community, culture and social systems will always be considered in our work together. Contact me for a free twenty minute phone consultation.
