Therapists in Chicago, IL

For the past 41 years I have provided children, adolescents, couples and families with support in the school, community, and private practice setting. I specialize in providing services, support, and advocacy for those with special needs and behavior issues. My experience as a special education teacher and school counselor has been an asset in my work with diverse populations and various needs at my private practice. I am a Certified LifeMap Coach and provide services to adults with Autism Spectrum profiles..

I enjoy working with children, adolescents, and adults who are comfortable with a one on one approach to counseling. Working with children in therapy always involves working with the parents. As with adolescents, providing them with a sense of privacy and trust is something I try to develop from the very beginning. For adults, privacy, confidentiality, and respect occur in a atmosphere of warmth and patience. If you are dealing with Attention Deficit Disorder, Depression, Anxiety, Panic attacks, Bipolar Disorder, or Post Traumatic Stress, I am sure you will find the relief you are looking for at my office.
