Do you feel overwhelmed and bogged down by the things in your life? Going through a divorce? Does dealing with your day to day stressors feel more overwhelming than it should? Are you stepping down from a higher level of care and are in need of a therapist? Hello all, I am Kyle a LSW looking to help you out with your anxiety and depression issues.

At The Marriage Clinic of DuPage we have been saving and strengthening marriages for over 30 years. We understand how hard it is for partners to feel alone in a relationship that was once so close, or to feel they are always letting their partner down or not good enough no matter what they do. We also know how difficult it is for couples who feel they constantly fight with each other, sometimes over seemingly small things or having the same fights over and over.

Do you feel stuck, trapped, dissatisfied? Has motivation become a problem? Are you plagued by worries? You are not alone. We all encounter periods when we feel "boxed in" by life. I believe people seek therapy when they come to a point where they have tried everything they can think of and nothing has worked to their satisfaction. This is not a sign of illness, disorder, or weakness. On the contrary, it is often at this point that a person is on the verge of a new way of seeing themselves, their problems, their life.

Therapy provides a safe space to sort through life's problems, receive support and empathy, and ultimately learn how to change to create more peace in your life. By the time we are teens, young adults, or more experienced adults, we can find ourselves stuck in certain thought or behavior patterns that are starting to be problematic. It’s hard to notice the pattern and even harder to learn to break it and try something new. I take incredible joy in working with people to shed light on what’s keeping them stuck and then moving towards more freedom and flexibility in life.

I enjoy making a connection with children and building trust with them through empathy, compassion, and education.
