Career Counseling Therapists in Belmont Cragin, Chicago, IL

As a former lawyer turned therapist who has lived in 6 states, I'm no stranger to the winding path life takes us down, and I often connect with high stress business professionals struggling with the demands of the field and folks who are navigating career or other life changes. I’ve had success helping people who are struggling with executive functioning and who may need ADHD coaching. As a non-judgmental and queer therapist, I also feel especially equipped to help queer clients or clients looking to explore their sexuality in a safe space.

Even when life is seemingly going well, our thoughts and feelings can make our days and nights a struggle. Living with mental illness or going through a challenging time can be like there is an ever-looming cloud blocking us from feeling the sun. It is my belief that therapy can help us see and feel the light again. Depression, anxiety, ADHD, behavioral or personality issues, and abuse & trauma can make us feel like we’re alone and without hope. Therapy can be a place where you don’t have to go through life’s struggles alone and get to learn coping strategies and solutions.
