Life can be rewarding and filled with happiness but at times it can be hard to focus on the positives and challenges seem to overtake us. These challenges may lead you to seek out someone to talk to and I would love the opportunity to listen. My educational degree and clinical background has equipped me in being able to assist you in navigating through the issues that are leading you to seek therapy. I want to help you navigate through your emotions and thoughts, and find that changing them into healthier ones can lead you to feel more happier and more in control of your life.

As a couples therapist I create a calm and non-judgmental environment for clients to connect (or reconnect) in ways they have been unable to on their own. Most people are often surprised that they have vulnerable, emotional, and confident sides of themselves. I have found that when people are able to tap into these skill sets, change is almost inevitable. My favorite thing about being a therapist is helping couples see the impact that vulnerability can have on improving their relationship. I believe that every relationship hits bumps and struggles, but, with help, everyone is capable of change.

I believe that therapy is most successful when there is mutual respect and trust between the therapist and client. I have successfully worked with families, teens, and adults from diverse sexual orientations, ethnicities, cultures, and religious backgrounds. Some of my clinical specialties include couples/family conflict, social and cultural stressors, anxiety, depression, trauma, and meaning making.

A belief I hold closely is that you can’t know yourself by yourself. It is a sincere privilege to be “the other person” as clients discover and uncover new, hidden or forgotten facets of themselves. I’ve done that in corporate, nonprofit and entrepreneurial settings, but there is nothing that lights me up more than to partner with others in the context of therapy.
I particularly love working with clients who have never been to therapy and clients who are skeptical about the process. It’s good to ask questions and be honest about your point of view. And it’s essential that you have - or be willing to have - an open mind.

It's hard to read a paragraph, look at a photo, and then decide who is worth trusting with the most intimate and difficult parts of your life. To help make things easier, I offer a free 30 minute consult. As you read on, I hope my method and experience will be a good match for you. Therapy can play a crucial role in helping with problems in relationships, at home, and at work.

We live in an abbreviated and relentlessly future-oriented society that deems it abhorrent to live with or tolerate uncertainty and contradiction. In our attempts to make sense of it all, life becomes exhausting, suffocating, and at times, unbearable.

I understand that entering therapy is not always an easy task. It takes courage to ask for help. As psychologist Viktor Frankl once said, “In some ways suffering ceases to be suffering at the moment it finds a meaning, such as the meaning of a sacrifice.” I work to help you find meaning. It’s important to me to provide you with a safe, nurturing environment. I am trained in EMDR, a modality used to help process traumatic memories and the cognitions associated with them.

It’s happening again…every time you think you have all of your ducks in a row, one is waddling off into the deep end. You’re succeeding in work or school, but your friendships are blowing in the wind, you haven’t seen your family since King had a dream, and don’t even get me started on your romantic life! “Why can’t I just have it all together”, you ask yourself. Maybe you once “had it all together” but then, that one thing happened and messed it all up. I see you, I feel you, and I’d like to help. Let’s get you out of that cycle and on to living a life you can be proud of.

Choosing to seek therapy is a decision that may come with anxiety and a greater sense of vulnerability, but it can ultimately lead to a significant decrease in distress as you experience increased awareness and strengthened coping abilities, which facilitate improvement in multiple areas of life and a heightened sense of overall contentment. My aim is to provide you with a comfortable, nonjudgmental atmosphere where you will be respected and welcomed with compassion and understanding; I believe these underpinnings are fundamental to a trusting, meaningful therapeutic relationship and critical in longer-term depth work.

You may not understand why certain feelings keep returning, why your relationships follow the same scripts, or why you turn away from what you most want or desire. Our earliest relationships shape how we see ourselves, what we expect from others, and how we navigate closeness, conflict, and need. These impressions linger, guiding our choices and shaping our distress in ways we don’t fully recognize. We may develop strategies to protect ourselves, but over time these adaptations can become confining. Often, we need help making sense of these patterns so we can begin to move beyond them.

Feeling like something terrible is about to happen and there is nothing you can do about it... Feeling overwhelmed with anger and frustration, and constantly misunderstood... Or wishing that you didn't have to get out of bed, that your day didn't have to start... For those of you who relate, who feel isolated, lonely, helpless, and confused, I invite you to think of therapy as a self-discovery journey that can give meaning to your struggle. And while this step requires courage and tenacity, it can lead you to a rewarding path, a newly acquired self-knowledge and a dramatic sense of revelation...

A longtime Chicagoan, I have also lived in China, France, and Japan. I use my full experience in management consulting, nonprofits, and the arts in my work as a therapist and am adept at working with people from varied backgrounds. I am astute, compassionate, and deeply committed to my clients' well-being. I engage my clients not only on the inner- and inter-personal levels, but also in the contexts of their intersecting roles and identities. I am attuned to the mutual influence that individuals and groups have on one another and the interconnectedness in life's pain and healing.

People come to therapy because of depression, anxiety, conflict, or trauma. Because of a broken relationship. Because life is devoid of joy, or stressful and overwhelming. Or because something has happened -- a death, loss of a job, a harrowing experience -- upsetting the way they see themselves, their relationships, even the world around them. To paraphrase Lao Tzu, people come to therapy because they recognize that if they don't change direction, they will end up where they are going. My job is to help them change their direction.
