Therapists in Grayslake, IL

I think I work best with clients whose goals are both large and realistic: working with depth enough for deep healing and growth, but with an eye to the practical, and with clear communication back and forth. Clients who need to tackle embarrassing, painful and difficult issues may appreciate my gently direct, understanding and non-judgmental approach. Those who have been frustrated with cookie-cutter approaches may appreciate my close listening, collaboration, and inventiveness based on extensive training and experience. I find I work well with a variety of symptoms and presenting problems in adults, children and relationships.

Let’s keep this simple. I’m a nice person just like you. I listen to intuitively help you improve your situation, whatever the case may be — 100% judgment free. You'll leave EVERY session feeling LIGTHER. Combined clinical training and holistic expertise provide integrated, effective, and rapid transformation. I CAN help if you're ready.

Feeling anxious, stressed or depressed? Many people are overwhelmed these days. There is help.
