ITA Welcomes Greer Beckman, LCSW
ITA is delighted to welcome Greer Beckman to our panel of clinicians. Greer received her Bachelor’s Degree in Theatre from Northwestern University. She received her Master’s Degree in Clinical Social Work from the University of Chicago’s School of Social Service Administration, while pursuing Drama Therapy training through Kansas State University. Greer currently studies Developmental Transformations (DvT) with Polaris Institute, the Midwest division of the Institute for Developmental Transformations. She is a member of the North American Drama Therapy Association and enjoys presenting at regional conferences. Greer works to combine her Drama Therapy training with a psychodynamic approach to clinical practice she gained in her social work internship at the Chicago Institute for Psychoanalysis. During her career she has worked in a variety of settings including community mental health centers, a behavioral health hospital, and a child development center. In her practice, she works to help clients expand their playspace, promoting the development of spontaneity and capacity to interact and connect with others. She strives to provide a contained space for clients to explore their emotions through dramatic play.
Greer is paneled with Blue Cross Blue Shield PPO and Blue Choice PPO and is currently accepting new clients. Contact Dr. Marni Rosen to schedule an appointment – mrosen@itachicago.org or 847-425-9708 x 590.
