"At times we all feel overwhelmed and challenged by life situations. For 17 years I've worked with clients to develop their cognitive-behavioral and insight oriented strengths. I can help you develop skills for better communication, relationship building, management of depression and anxiety, and coping with grief. My counseling style is supportive, compassionate and direct. I am available for any questions about the therapeutic process, just give me a call."

"My approach to therapy is collaborative, whether you come in alone, with a partner, or with your family. Together we explore your therapeutic goals. I firmly believe in the power of relationships to foster resilience and healing. In my work, I strive to cultivate connection and curiosity in an active, direct, and compassionate manner as you explore life's challenges -- deepening your understanding of yourself and learning to connect more meaningfully with others."

"This therapy is designed for conceiving couples, pregnant moms and new parents that intend to conceive, birth, and parent consciously.  In a compassionate environment we explore the physical, mental and emotional obstacles that are complicating conception.  Together we dissolve those limiting patterns.  For those pregnant and parenting, therapy is aimed at healing patterns passed down through generations.  Through psychological work we transform those patterns. We thereby increase bonding and enhance communication with your growing baby, which is all in service of giving your baby a harmonic and empowered beginning to life.    "

"*Taking new clients on Thursday’s between 8:30am-1:00pm as of 4/11* I believe my role as a therapist is to help clients build an awareness of themselves by examining both the mind and body. I draw from both DBT and CBT techniques. I will work with clients towards acceptance and change to develop insight into understand themselves on a deeper level. From barriers to daily functioning, coping with chronic health issues, identifying cognitive distortions to larger questions of identity and life purpose; we will explore ways to address unhealthy patterns in a safe and judgement free space. "

"Entering into therapy is an important process. With over 20 years of experience, I work with individuals and couples to help define and promote change in their lives. I provide a nurturing, collaborative environment to explore any challenges or barriers which may influence one's current well being. Each person is unique and I work with clients to explore and establish goals that can enhance their interpersonal relationships and support healthy emotional functioning."

"I believe clients deserve a space where they can be unapologetically seen, heard and witnessed. I bring this belief into my work to allow clients to experience and explore whatever they are carrying with them. This work is done on a foundation of collaboration, curiosity, trust and compassion."

"My office provides a place for women seeking to make positive changes in their lives. Specializing in trauma, addictions, depression, and anxiety, my goal as a psychologist is to help you successfully navigate through life's difficult times. Together we work through uncertainty, confusion, and feeling "in between" life's roles. Collaboratively, we will develop goals and select effective treatments to help you achieve theses goals. In addition, I offer couples and family therapy to strengthen my client's relationships. Finally, I provide supervision, training, and therapy for mental health providers. "

"I take a collaborative, psychodynamic approach to treatment. You know your experiences, goals, and preferences best and my job is to help support your growth and overcome obstacles. Our work can also focus on developing skills that can help you to understand yourself better, improve your relationships, and reach your goals."

"I am extremely passionate about working with adolescent girls! I understand that the idea of going to see a total stranger isn’t ideal for some and that often times teens feel forced to come in for therapy by their parents. Whatever the situation, it is obvious that teenagers today are inundated with many academic, familial, peer, and societal pressure that can leave them feeling incredibly overwhelmed. "

"Women and teen girls, you've found your support team! As psychologists, we work to empower you across the lifespan to live the best life possible. As a specialized women's practice, we do cognitive behavioral therapies individually, in groups, in workshops, and for women and their partners and families."

"Therapy provides a unique opportunity to get to know yourself and/or your partner at a deeper level and to overcome obstacles that prevent you from enjoying life more fully. Through a non-judgmental and interactive approach, I offer support and insight while simultaneously encouraging clients to take the next step toward self-discovery and personal growth."

"The most significant relationship in life is your relationship with yourself. I believe it is essential to happiness to be intimately in touch with, and know how to ask for others to meet your needs, wants and desires. My office is held as a sacred space where you discover what it takes to love and accept yourself. I work synergistically with you to co-create a space wrought with support, encouragement, personal responsibility and compassion. I am a culturally competent therapist trained to work with a breadth of sexual and relational issues. I work with individuals, couples and intimate constellations. "

"I believe counseling is one of the greatest gifts we can give to ourselves. My goal as a therapist is to help clients live happier, healthier and more productive lives. Through the use of various psychotherapy methods and collaborative treatment measures, clients can develop life-changing habits to help cope with any of life’s various obstacles. My therapy sessions are designed to address personal issues and help you gain a more positive sense of self, learn more effective coping strategies to deal with stress and discomfort, and strengthen your relationships. "

"Welcome! I'm Dr. Doyle, a clinical psychologist working with adolescents and adults in the Chicagoland area. I view therapy as a unique opportunity for individuals to access their own resilience and develop increasingly satisfying relationships with themselves, their past experiences, their personal potentials, and others in their life and community. I believe a trusting, authentic relationship built on a holistic appreciation of each unique person is essential to therapeutic growth. Accordingly, I use an integrated approach to therapy that is individualized, strength-based, and collaborative. You'll find me to be warm, engaged, and challenging as needed."

"Sometimes we lose our way, have parts of ourselves we wish to change, or dream of better relationships. As a psychologist, I serve as a support to help you get there. The therapeutic relationship offers space to describe your unique experience and feel heard without judgment or criticism. I offer an affirming environment to help you pay attention to what you really want and who you really are. During our collaboration, we will identify the strengths and resources that exist in you already and combine them with the new skills you learn in therapy to help you reach your goals."

"When our relationships aren't thriving, things just feel off. At home, work or just walking down the street we can feel it. I strive to help you identify and balance who you are at your core, determine what you want from your life and your relationships and then create a plan to make that happen! There is going to be some pain in life, but I don't believe life has to be about suffering. Come in for a session and we can figure out the path together. All that you need to thrive exists within you!"

"I'm not really a quick fix kind of guy. I'm in it for the long haul and completely committed to the therapeutic journey. And that journey requires grit and the willingness to keep showing up for oneself. Sometimes showing up looks like pulling the covers over your head and just sleeping it off and then other days showing up means that you hit the ground running. My commitment to you is to show up WITH you . . . right where you are. All it takes is a subtle shift in perspective to change the course of your entire life. I can help you do that!"
