Behavioral Issues Therapists in Highland Park, IL

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker dedicated to helping children, adolescents and adults address a range of challenges in their lives, including behavior problems, conflictual relationships, anxiety, and depression. Together we can work on issues that arise from life transitions, loss, work place concerns, school troubles, lack of confidence and more. I work to create an atmosphere of acceptance and trust in which my clients feel comfortable and safe talking about their thoughts, feelings and emotions.

I am passionate about creating a partnership with you and your family to elicit positive change. I specialize in working with early childhood behavioral challenges, school-aged children, adolescents, young adults, and families exhibiting a wide range of symptoms such as anxiety disorders, depression, ADHD, adjustment disorders, parenting issues, chronic health conditions, and life transitions. I enjoy engaging in play-based therapeutic interventions with younger children and am trained in Sand Tray therapy. My nurturing, empathetic, creative, and warm disposition puts my clients at ease the moment they begin the therapeutic journey.

In my 11 years as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I have experience working with clients of all ages and enjoy helping others through struggles impacting their everyday lives. I provide both counseling and consultation to help alleviate the difficulties families experience by using psychodynamic, strengths-based, and cognitive behavioral approaches. I have extensive training in Child-Parent Psychotherapy, which enables me to use play therapy and narration with young children to help relieve child behaviors that negatively impact the family. This approach also helps parents cope with the stressful demands of parenthood.

My goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is in concert with the best version of your self.​​​​ By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life. ​ If you're looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you're just ready to move in a new direction in your life, I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals.--Tony

I believe individuals manage the best they can, but these efforts do not always naturally translate to happiness or self-fulfillment. Oftentimes, situations cause us pain and in response, we spend considerable energy safeguarding our vulnerabilities at the expense of our well-being. Managing emotional distress alone can feel overwhelming, which is why we often need help from a sensitive, knowledgeable professional.

Are you sick and tired of feeling anxious, worried or depressed all the time? Discouraged that your own efforts to change things only leave you stuck? And then downing yourself on top of that? Are you living only a part of the life that you wish you could have? Well, anyone can fall into those traps. You don't have to figure it all out by yourself. And trying harder isn't the solution.

The stressful world in which we live often leaves us feeling overwhelmed and struggling to manage the demands placed upon us. You may experience irritable moods, anxiety, depression, or unable to find joy in things. Your relationships may be affected and you may find you are unable to be the person you once were and know you can be. It is my goal, as a therapist, to create a warm, supportive, understanding, and collaborative partnership with clients. My clinical expertise includes: working with high functioning adults, people struggling with serious mental illnesses, and individuals with developmental disabilities.

I strongly believe that relationships are the key to positive outcomes in psychotherapy. Whether using cognitive behavioral therapy, narrative therapy, or play therapy, building a positive, trusting relationship with clients comes first. That relationship allows me to understand, align with, and guide my clients through achieving their therapeutic goals.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist with more than 20 years of experience in mental health and wellness. My passion stems from wanting to help others learn new ways of coping with their environment and garnering new skills to help manage current life stressors and hurdles. My belief is that from early childhood we learn healthy, and sometimes unhealthy, strategies to manage challenges. Coping styles, especially maladaptive ones, work for a period of time, but may become ineffective. When this occurs, people often seek therapy. My job as a therapist is to help you learn, and implement, healthier coping strategies.

In my practice, I specialize in providing therapy to couples, men, and teenage boys, especially those who have been resistant to therapy. Once in therapy, I help individuals and couples devleop new strategies to improve their relationships, become more successful in their career/school, and live more satisfying lives. It is my role to actively help my clients identify the patterns in their lives that keep them stuck and give them solutions to help them change. I feel my style is direct and interactive and that clients are pleased that I do more then "just listen"

We will not only address the struggles that concern you, but we will identify and build on your unique areas of strength. This will promote resiliency to stress and help you successfully navigate the complications of life.
