Michael Losoff, PhD, has served the Chicago area for more than 25 years, working with adolescents, adults and families seeking finely tuned expertise to assist with difficult struggles. His work has included both community mental health and private practice, and both traditional outpatient psychotherapy and intensive treatment. He has held several leadership positions, most recently at Yellowbrick.  He was the Founding Director of the Center for Depth Psychotherapy at the C.G. Jung Center in Evanston and served as president of the Chicago Association for Psychoanalytic Psychology. His post-graduate training included an NIMH Post-Doctoral Fellowship jointly sponsored by Northwestern University Medical School and The University of Chicago.

Dr. Losoff works largely within the framework of a developmental psychodynamic relational model, uniquely suited to address complex emotional and psychological struggles, including trauma. This approach fosters safety in the context of the treatment relationship and attunes to the development of self-regulatory capacities to relax the embedded nature of trauma and other intense mental health challenges. He sees the primary goal of therapy to be change at a deeper level, involving a close working relationship between client and therapist.
