Draga Ilievski has been providing individual, couple, and family therapy to a variety of clients since 2001. Deep psychotherapy is a specialty in which Draga received advanced clinical training, which allows her to provide patients with a comprehensive assessment. Draga holds a background in Oncology Social Work, which, combined with her research interests in psychosocial oncology, provides a broad framework for her private practice.
She has worked with children, teenagers, and adults on a variety of relationship and personal issues in order to help them develop a stronger sense of self and a stronger sense of their family's values and traditions. My current postgraduate training is in psychodynamic psychotherapy, which I am currently pursuing.
Draga has also worked as a visiting lecturer and adjunct faculty member at Indiana University Northwest, where she spent nearly a decade. While there, Draga pioneered a new educational approach by combining social work theory with practice. She applied her method while teaching undergraduate and graduate classes in healthcare, human behavior, and the social environment.
