Dr. Douglas Neal, PSY.D

Dr. Neal has been practicing in the Chicago/Crystal Lake area for over 35 years. As his experience grows, so does his passion for helping people step into their fullest and healthiest life.

Over the years, Dr. Neal has expanded his original training in conventional Western medicine to embrace an integrative (mind/body/spirit) psychological approach and functional medicine. He starts with the concept that our human body has what it needs to stay healthy. He then helps clients identify what is getting in the way of their health, presenting as physical-emotional-cognitive symptoms. His focus is “promoting health, not treating a disorder.”

With strong roots in the local professional community, Dr. Neal teams with a wide variety of specialists (educational support services, functional medicine and holistic professionals, psychiatrists, learning disabilities specialists, etc.) so that clients receive specialized yet integrated care.

"Can’t say enough good things about Dr Neal! He has walked alongside our family for over 6 years now, and has given our family the tools to cope with life’s ups and downs. His advice is solid, rational, thoughtful, tried, and true. Life is a journey and our family’s journey wouldn’t be as easy without him. So grateful to have found him."
