Going through a 'life transition' that doesn't seem to end? Feeling left behind and unable to catch up? If so, I would like to help. I am an interactive therapist in Chicago who builds capacity for growth and change in clients ready to take a step forward in life. Through an eclectic approach, I validate your experience, identify key areas for growth, and empower you to see a life beyond anxiety, stress, trauma, or disappointment. I utilize various forms of cognitive behavioral activity, and performance psychology to deliver consistent measurable change. I also give "homework" to promote and continue growth outside of our sessions.
Helping clients learn and apply new and adaptive coping tools for stress and anxiety, discovering internal barriers that may be liming a person’s full potential goal setting, changing unhealthy behaviors to more productive ones, promoting career success, building healthy personal relationships, and elite sport performance consulting.
Recognizing your desire for growth and change is the first step ! You deserve an authentic and supportive environment through which you can heal from past experiences, identify current barriers, and prepare to reach for your life goals. I can help you each step of the way, and look forward to the opportunity to work together.
