Welcome! As humans, we are all on a path of healing and growing. We are born with intrinsic worth, but through painful experiences/messages, trauma and/or disruptions in primary attachments we internalize untruths, shame and pain. Our work is about creating a new truth by trimming the pain that keeps you stuck in shame, toxic relational patterns, trauma responses, unhealthy habits and loss of purpose. Collaboration is the foundation of my work. Humans are the experts in their lives, but I do have experience and training in how to help people make the changes they desire.

I work with teens and emerging adults navigating anxiety, perfectionism, grief, and various life transitions. Many feel overwhelmed, mentally exhausted, or stuck in patterns of overthinking and self-pressure, even though they appear successful on the outside. They may struggle to slow their thoughts, process loss, or feel confident in their next steps. Through our work, they develop practical tools and a more compassionate relationship with themselves, leading to reduced anxiety, increased confidence, and a stronger sense of stability and direction.

My ideal clients are first responders, veterans, and individuals carrying the weight of trauma, chronic stress, or substance use. Many struggle with anxiety, PTSD symptoms, emotional numbing, or feeling “stuck” after overwhelming experiences. They want relief, clarity, and a sense of control in their lives again. Most are searching for a safe space where they can heal, understand their reactions, and rebuild confidence and purpose.

I believe that even in the darkest moments, there is beauty and healing to be found. Therapy isn’t just about problem-solving—it’s about discovery and transformation. I see counseling as a partnership, where we work together to uncover the patterns in your life and relationships that no longer serve you, and replace them with healthier, more empowering ways of thinking and being. I encourage deep introspection, guiding you to explore your thoughts, fears, hopes, and dreams.

Clarity of mind is a luxury worth having. I work with people who may be doing well on paper but want less mental noise and better days. My style is plainspoken and collaborative: we’ll slow the pace, notice patterns in thoughts and habits, and try small changes that actually stick. With more than a decade as a clinician, supervisor, VP of clinical services, and practice founder, working with my team I've shaped a space that feels restorative and refined—more like a wellness retreat than a clinic. Sessions are tailored, intentional, and focused on what matters now.

We live in a world that is changing every day, often creating stress, anxiety, and grief. Sometimes, we feel stuck in routines or patterns that are no longer serving us, but struggle to make a change. My role is to walk alongside to provide support, honesty, and perspective. I encourage my clients to pursue their authentic selves while working to debunk societal norms. Many of us have trauma stored in our bodies, unaware that we're holding onto past relationships and feelings of failure and inadequacies. I support utilizing other body-based modalities in addition to talk therapy to connect and heal physical/emotional pain.

I am a Training and Supervising Psychoanalyst on the faculty of the Chicago Psychoanalytic Institute and I welcome individual adults whom are questioning why their attempts to improve the quality of their life is not working.

I feel that self exploration is a challenging enterprise that often requires courage and risk. I would like to help you understand why your best efforts have not worked.

Many people come to therapy feeling like they’ve had to handle life on their own for far too long. Maybe you learned early how to be strong, self-reliant, or emotionally contained because support wasn’t consistently available. Even now, you might appear capable on the outside while feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure how to ask for what you need. Therapy can be a place where you finally don’t have to carry everything alone.
I work from a deeply relational and authentic approach. I believe healing happens in the context of safe connection, where you feel seen, understood, and accepted without judgment.
