Our History
In 1984, eight years after completing graduate school at the University of Chicago, Jeffrey Shore and Gloria Graff combined their psychotherapy practices and founded Partners for Change, LLC.Gloria and Jeff decided to affiliate with other highly qualified, licensed clinical social workers and psychologists, and Partners for Change was born. In selecting our team of psychotherapists, we carefully screen potential members of our group for experience, skill and integrity, and affiliate only with the kind of professionals we would choose if we were seeking a therapist ourselves. For more than 25 years, individuals, couples and families looking for the most qualified therapist in downtown Chicago have selected Partners for Change.
