By listening to issues and concerns, I help my clients process, develop, and improve by defining new ways to identify and solve problems; with family members, at home, at school and in the workplace. My expertise includes treating individuals with wide ranging emotional or behavioral issues. I have extensive experience in helping struggling families improve their relationships.

I have been working in the Chicago area with communities of different populations since 2010. My experience is largely with adolescents and young adults, but I also work with elementary age children as well as families and individuals with special needs. In my sessions, I like to utilize Art Therapy and mindfulness to help my clients learn to process their emotions and thoughts in a unique way. Areas that can be processed through art therapy can vary depending on client needs, but can include- trauma and acute stress, anxiety and depression, changes in family, academic difficulties, and much more.

If you’re struggling with a challenging situation in your life, it can feel overwhelming—but it doesn’t have to be that way. You deserve to experience happiness, confidence, and inner peace. I treat adults and adolescents struggling with depression, stress and anxiety, bipolar disorder, ADHD, PTSD, relationship concerns, and attachment issues. I also provide parenting support and couples counseling. My approach involves psychodynamic psychotherapy and relational therapy. I also introduce some cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT).

If you're someone who feels like they have "been there, done that" when it comes to therapy and are looking for deeper understanding of yourself and your relationships, I just might be your therapist. I'm someone who believes coping skills are fantastic, but challenging deeply-held emotional beliefs is what moves people towards lasting change. To do this, I make space for the people I work with to feel understood for exactly who they are. Because I know that when people are able to explore their full selves in a compassionate, curious way, they will be amazed at what they can change (or in some cases, learn to love and accept!).

Glenn Counseling Center offers integrative clinical therapeutic services for adolescents, young adults and families. Our clinicians work closely with various schools on the North Shore helping provide collaborative and wrap around support for students and families. We focus on children ages 5 through young adult and provide individual, group, and family therapy. We pride ourselves in our inclusiveness and our skills in working with individual and family trauma and crises.

Often we are struggling and are unsure of why or what we can do about it. This can lead us to feel hopeless and helpless and often sets us up for additional worry and sadness. Assessment is a tool used to identify the cause of such struggles as well as your unique strengths that can support positive change.

I am here to help anyone who wants to live a more full life. Whether you want to feel better or focus on personal growth, there are so many ways we can work together to reach your goals. I am trauma-informed and EMDR certified. I am certified in integrative medicine for mental health and incorporate alternative/wholistic approaches into practice to enable mind-body balance. I l also love bringing neuroscience and conflict resolution into my practice, along with expressive arts, play, sand-tray, and attachment work, and offer walk and talk therapy. I see clients at all stages of the lifespan from infants to adults.

The past several years have been challenging; both individually and collectively we have endured varied levels of trauma. Combine that with the struggles we were carrying pre-pandemic and it can sometimes feel impossible to properly address any of it. So many of us are feeling stuck, questioning our core beliefs, resulting in negative thought patterns and problematic behaviors. Allow me to help you untangle the problems and stress you are facing. It is not always easy asking for help, but one of my inherent values is that there is immense courage and resilience behind our ability to do so.

With over 30 years of experience, my private practice focuses on working with adults who experience anxiety, depression, trauma, low self-esteem, grief and loss, loneliness and who are going through a life transition. Having these barriers often prevent people from having meaningful and fulfilled lives. My clients have successfully learned to be calm, to become "unstuck" and feel confident about their capabilities and to improve their relationships with others. As a result, they have been able to manage their worries, sadness, anger, resentment, guilt, helplessness and the uncertainty of life challenges.

I am a caring and experienced therapist who enjoys helping couples and individuals resolve ongoing problems in intimate relationships. Do you want a better relationship? Would you like to move beyond the losses you've suffered to find peace and contentment? Do you want more meaning in your life? Chances are you need to understand yourself better, to listen to your own inner wisdom, to take responsibility for your life by facing reality. To learn to care for yourself, accept every part of yourself, and think clearly without distortions. I can help you develop courage, integrity, and a stronger sense of self.

The Couple and Family Clinic is creating connections that heal. We specialize in relational conflict and trauma, partner betrayal trauma, sexual compulsion, cultural trauma and grief and loss. Pain and adjustment is a part of life. I am here to walk with you through the process so that you will arrive at your goal feeling healthy and whole. The client's experience from beginning to the end of treatment are all very important to me and the healing process. We all desire healthy, happy and loving relationships, and this takes courage and will pull us out of our comfort zone. Sometimes loving ourselves is the best place to start.

I utilize a combination of somatically-focused, cognitive, and psychodynamic approaches to assist you in understanding your concerns. I'd love to help you address current changes you'd like to make, but also address underlying concerns so that current struggles are less likely to resurface. I specialize in tailoring treatments in developmentally attuned ways. With adults I assist clients in understanding how their life journeys have led them to their present concerns, and work on uncovering and undoing patterns you may find less effective.

Safety, acceptance, support, and challenge. These are what I offer as we collaborate on the road to thriving. Often we feel stuck, critical of ourselves, and hesitant to take steps toward change. The unfamiliar can frighten us into accepting our current circumstances. Let's work together and shift your feelings and thoughts that can lead you toward making changes in your life that get you to thriving! I work with people coping with anxiety, depression, PTSD, inaction, and a lack of connection. Often times folks have spent years of wondering 'what's wrong with me' or 'why can't I be happy'? I want to help you with these questions.

I act as a facilitator of change for individuals who suffer from depression, anxiety, various traumas, panic, grief/loss, stress, postpartum blues and depression, low self-esteem, and who are going through life transitions and have parenting challenges. I believe that human birthright is to experience joy in life. Individual journeys in healing and growth are the ways to achieve that.

It's all about connection. We all have such a unique cluster of life experiences, and I am here to aid in the facilitation of integration, self-acceptance, and relationship building. You may not know where to begin, or you may have specific therapeutic goals. No matter where you are right now in relation to yourself, I am here as a radically accepting, nonjudgmental, empathic practitioner to be with you in all parts of your journey. I am a deep nature and animal lover, traveler, and have a deep understanding of religious and spiritual communities while not being affiliated with any denomination or religion.

I provide individual counseling for adults ages eighteen and older. I am a supportive, non-judgmental therapist with years of clinical experience. Some of my specialty areas include perinatal mood disorders, trauma, life transitions, relationship issues, depression, and anxiety. My job is to provide guidance and ride along with you on your journey to finding answers.
