Therapists in Villa Park, IL

"No problem can be solved by the same level of consciousness that created it."-Albert Einstein. Are you feeling chronically unhappy, angry, fearful, or stuck? Do you have conflicted relationships with friends/family? Come in and talk to someone in a confidential and compassionate environment who can assist you in seeing things differently. I have over 10 years of experience working with individuals and families providing psychotherapy. As a seasoned clinician, I have learned to creatively blend my listening skills with a variety of evidence-based approaches tailored to fit the needs of my clients for optimal growth.

Feeling like you've been stuck lately? Do you want someone to talk to? We all need someone to understand us when we feel overwhelmed. I want my clients to be able to explore their vulnerabilities, stressors, & make positive & organic changes to their lives. Everything needs to be taken day by day & slowly. Nothing can be changed over night, but together we can work together.

Perhaps you are someone in your late 20's to 60's and are not used to asking for help because you were taught early never to show vulnerability.

All you know is that you are in pain, and that pain is affecting all your other relationships, making it harder to reach out to others, hard to trust anyone.

As a part of a holistic health center, we can also work with acupuncturists, herbalists and bodyworkers to support the process.

Healing is a circular and cyclical journey with many paths, choices, & discoveries. We meet you where you are today, acknowledge that you are ever-changing, ever evolving. We know how hard it is to ask for help…to embrace, hold, and make space for change…we know how challenging it is to have a dissolution of self, or a version of yourself that no longer fits. Together, we can uncover & compost outdated & stifling beliefs, unrealistic expectations or goals, let go of worries & fears, discover self-sabotage, burrow through behaviors & deeply hidden feelings & emotions that keep us stuck, fearful, unable to step into empowered selves.
