About

Dr. Prusko (she/her) is committed to creating a compassionate and empathetic therapeutic relationship that allows individuals to feel safe as they explore and understand the underlying reasons for seeking therapy. Drawing from a psychodynamic perspective, she integrates relational techniques to help clients develop practical skills for symptom relief and emotional regulation.

Dr. Prusko specializes in complex trauma and works with individuals who have experienced prolonged or repeated trauma. Her clinical expertise extends to a range of mental health concerns, including:

  • Antagonistic relationships and narcissistic abuse
  • Grief and loss
  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • Substance abuse
  • Emotion dysregulation

With extensive experience across diverse settings—such as hospital emergency rooms, inpatient units, correctional facilities, and residential substance treatment centers—Dr. Prusko brings a wealth of practical knowledge to her work.

She is deeply committed to socially responsible therapeutic practices, recognizing that personal experiences are inseparable from the broader social contexts in which they occur. In her work, Dr. Prusko creates space for exploring how race, gender, oppression, and inequity shape the therapeutic process and influence individual healing.

Dr. Prusko  is a PSYPACT-certified clinician, authorized to provide teletherapy in 42 states. Contact our Client Care team at (312) 609-5300, option 2, to verify eligibility and availability.
