People find themselves looking for the help of a professional when their previous ways of coping are no longer effective and they feel lost or stuck. Therapy is an opportunity for change. By entering into therapy, you offer yourself an opportunity to explore your needs and feelings with an insightful, caring professional who can support you in finding new ways of meeting the challenges in your life. I am interested in helping my patients understand themselves, their behaviors, and their experiences by making meaning of how past experiences have impacted them and potentially influence current behaviors, relationships, and life circumstances.

Kelly has experience working with clients of all ages and is trained to treat a wide variety of disorders, with a focus on post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, and mood disorders. She uses empirically-researched behavior therapies including cognitive behavior therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, as well as humanistic approaches that keep her clients centered in their therapeutic narrative while working toward their full potential. Kelly practices with warmth and passion, and views therapy from an integrative approach uniquely defined by a client’s current needs.

I believe therapy is oriented at finding out something about you with you. Many of the struggles we experience are caused by responding to new life circumstances using past life experiences. During therapy we move with curiosity, exploring perspectives. We experiment giving ourself permission to feel deeper in an effort to bring focus to the present while honoring our past for brining us to this moment. Through this work, clients can challenge this "stuck” feeling and move toward leading fulfilling lives.

I specialize in adult and teen clients navigating traumatic life experiences and transitions. When working with clients, I utilize Mindfulness-Based CBT, ACT, and Trauma-Informed modalities to gain a deeper understanding as to why clients may be experiencing certain symptoms. I believe that we all have complex and unique stories that require a similar starting treatment plan – honoring a person within their environment. I focus on supporting and empowering clients as they navigate who they are, what they want, and providing the tools and resources to get them there, while using evidence-based interventions.

Starting therapy can be a daunting and overwhelming process. It is my goal to make it an easy and comfortable transition. I view therapy as a team approach including the child and/or adolescent, the family, community resources, and myself. We work together to best address the presenting challenge. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over a decade of experience working with children, adolescents, and families within a variety of therapeutic settings. I received my Master of Social Work from New York University and a Post Master's Degree from Loyola University.

Welcome! My name is Sara and am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have been in the field for more than a decade; licensed since 2020. I specialize in teens and young adults, but love working with adults of all ages. I work primarily with people who are struggling through adjustment to different phases of life and/or are experiencing anxiety and depression. I believe in person centered care where you are the expert in your own life, but firmly believe everyone could use a good support team. I feel fortunate to be part of that team.

I believe therapy can be transformative. At its core, therapy is a process of self-discovery and radical acceptance. Collaborations in therapy can help us lead fulfilling lives, make decisions we are proud of, and empower us to find our place in the world. I’m proud to live at the intersection of queer, transgender, Filipinx, and polyamorous experiences. As a student of social work developing an expertise in trauma-informed and person-centered care, I want to create a place for working on everyday stressors and longer-term goals. That work will compound into larger insights and more fulfilling ways of being.

We often think of ourselves as what we are given, but instead it's what we make of what we're given. I am guided by a view of identity as a creative narrative and see distress as often occurring when we feel stuck in that creation, bound to a self and life that isn't working. The goal in therapy is not only to understand how and why we got stuck, but to reengage with our creative and imaginative self, allowing us to explore new facets of ourselves and experiment with new ways of being. In many ways, we reduce suffering by reintroducing play.

There’s nothing more heartbreaking than watching your child struggle. It’s overwhelming to help your child cope with their big feelings in times of stress, while simultaneously managing your own responses. It can be frustrating and exhausting when you’ve tried everything, but you’re not getting the results you hoped to see. Many people say parenting is the hardest job you will ever have, but you don't have to navigate it alone. Seeking out support that provides guidance, and helps to empower you and your child, is a meaningful step forward. Therapy can help build the bridge towards your child’s growth and resilience.

I believe in creating a welcoming therapeutic space that is both person-centered and affirming. Therapy is a place for you and I work together to identify challenges and develop more effective ways of addressing those challenges. My services are always tailored to the individual and I work to maintain a collaborative and strengths-based environment where trust and safety are a top priority. Ultimately, I hope that our work together helps you feel comfortable and confident as you navigate the world.

Hello! I am a graduate from The Family Institute at Northwestern University with a wide range of experience helping late adolescents and adults navigate job stress, anxiety, depression, substance use, grief/loss, trauma, LGBTQIA+ identities, relationship concerns and the many other challenges we may face in life.

Welcome, you have just taken a step closer to living the life that you want for yourself! When life challenges are greater than the skills and support that we have, personal problems erupt. I believe that human suffering is an inherent part of life. I am committed to helping people overcome life challenges and achieve greater life satisfaction.

Psychotherapy offers a unique opportunity to better understand oneself, others, our contexts and histories, and the interplay among these elements. While some patients come to me seeking relief from concrete symptoms of anxiety, depression, or low self-esteem, others wish to wrest themselves from a more opaque sense of disconnection, emptiness, or dissatisfaction. Regardless of what brings you to psychotherapy, I offer a space that is warm, empathically attuned, collaborative, and that generates the necessary factors to both promote insight and more importantly move you towards a new, more fulfilling experience of yourself and life.

I’m a licensed clinical psychologist with over a decade of experience in assisting adults, adolescents, couples and families with life, work and relationship issues.
