Finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming. I'm here for you. I believe in a collaborative approach to treatment where there is a sense of mutual respect, empathy, self-exploration, and empowerment. I work with you to build an authentic, honest, and transparent connection. I also value a culturally sensitive and relational approach that fosters a safe, non-judgmental, trusting, warm and supportive space where you can be vulnerable, feel heard, feel seen, and feel accepted being your true authentic self.
As our worlds have been turned upside down, even more teens are struggling with their emotions. Our adolescent groups have successfully shifted to telepsychology where teens continue to interact and gain support during this unique time. We are also in the process of resuming groups live in the office. Your teen can find help using research-supported Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and other Third Wave CBT approaches.

Are you feeling stuck, stressed, or anxious? Do you or your child need help to improve confidence, make new friends, or cope with your current life circumstances? Are you going through a life transition (starting high school, going to college, having a baby, getting married, divorce, etc) and would like extra support? I am passionate about working with adolescents, young adults, adults, new moms/moms, & families who are working through a life transition (school, family, friendship), anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, poor communication skills, relational struggles, family conflict, and difficulty connecting and making friends.
Telling people with long-standing fears of social evaluation to undertake group therapy can make the treatment sound daunting. Yet CBT group treatment for social anxiety problems is, for many people, the most effective approach to treating the problem. In this 12-week focused group, the interventions target the sequences of thought and behavior that have reinforced fear. The group is an excellent place to learn and practice social skills, cognitive restructuring, and exposure exercises. The supportive aspect of group therapy itself encourages clients to apply new behaviors and ways of thinking outside of group.

Group meets in Northbrook, IL 60062
Are you sick and tired of feeling anxious, worried or depressed all the time? Discouraged that your own efforts to change things only leave you stuck? And then downing yourself on top of that? Are you living only a part of the life that you wish you could have? Well, anyone can fall into those traps. You don't have to figure it all out by yourself. And trying harder isn't the solution. Trying “different” is. Learning and practicing new skills is your ticket out. I can help you identify the traps and make best use of new/different skills and strategies.

I work with children, adolescents, young adults, adults, and families who struggle with issues of anxiety, depression, confidence, and interpersonal relationships. The number one aspect of successful treatment is a strong/trusting relationship. I connect with clients through sports metaphors, movies, real life scenarios, and getting to understand their interests. Everyone has a story so I believe it is important to include family during phases of treatment, to best understand the client's story. In addition, I believe the family is a necessary part of the therapy team, therefore family members are included in phases of treatment to ultimately help my client reach their goals.
