Hi there! I have a Doctorate degree in Clinical Psychology and am a Post-Doctoral Fellow.

I have experience working with marginalized children, teens, and adults with various psychosocial concerns through various organizations. Additionally, I approach therapy from an integrative perspective, focusing primarily on cognitive-behavioral and client-centered therapy.

As a therapist, I encourage authenticity, so that we can work together to explore and create the best solutions.

Hi! I'm Faye! Thank you for being here! Together we can develop a therapeutic relationship that will focus on a deeper understanding of yourself and a stronger connection with others.

I am a therapist who recognizes that no problem or issue is too big or small to be addressed, and I understand that therapy should feel like a safe, non-judgmental space for clients. I work with late adolescents to middle adult clients who are dealing with depression, anxiety, adjustment, relationship, and life transition issues. I strive to meet clients where they are so they can aim to reach their full potential and goals .

I work with clients who struggle with managing stress, anxiety, self-esteem or relationship issues. Common examples of issues these clients face are trouble setting boundaries, feeling overwhelmed, relationship issues, lack of self-esteem or difficulty managing their emotions. These clients are hoping to increase their coping skills in these areas and want resources to better navigate their symptoms or need a safe and nonjudgmental space to talk things through. Evaluating all aspects of life through a collaborative relationship, we can work to decide how my client can live a thriving, healthy life.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist and I provide individual, couples, and group therapy as well as psychological testing.

I place an emphasis on mindfulness and acceptance in my therapeutic approach allowing you to evolve in a meaningful way. Navigating that evolution can be difficult and uncomfortable, my job is to help you through that process. To facilitate your transformation I utilize Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Interpersonal Therapy.

Life's moments are filled with joy, disappointment, triumph and challenges. Many of these experiences leave us feeling exhilarated, overwhelmed and in search of a new path in a different direction. I believe that the therapeutic environment is a safe space where mutual trust, honesty and insightful dialogue allow you to nurture, heal and replenish yourself. The therapeutic relationship is essential to my clinical approach; a collaborative effort to support and challenge as we establish and progress toward identified goals.

Are you living your ideal life? Are your relationships as close or as functional as you would like? As a Couple and Family Therapist, I specialize in services for couples, families, and individuals in Illinois and Indiana.

My belief in the psychotherapeutic process is experiential and interpersonal at the core. I practice from an integrative clinical perspective with an emphasis on psychodynamic psychology. I believe the relationship between therapist and client is an essential condition of the work, as this is the connection that allows for empathy and the mutual understanding of experience. In addition to the centrality of the therapeutic relationship, I aim to facilitate the co-construction of a creative space relative to each person that is safe, open and meaningful in which to explore whatever is on one's mind or heart.

I work with people who are struggling through transitions. Sometimes the movement between life phases brings about struggles, questions, and the need for behavior change. My active, and direct style will challenge you to examine the questions you have and work together to identify strategies to relieve your distress. I utilize a very direct style with an emphasis on "telling the truth" and learning to increase one's accountability in their life. In short, the dialogue between us will help challenge you to obtain the necessary changes in your life, appreciating how you got here and where to go next.

In my 25 years of practice, I have learned some important truths: what happened to us doesn’t have to determine what happens for us; under the right conditions, the human spirit orients toward growth and wholeness; therapy can be an important addition to the healing process. People come to therapy for many reasons, often the initial phase of the work is in improving coping strategies so you can feel better sooner. Beyond symptomology, understanding you and your unique context are essential for unearthing longstanding behavior patterns. Therapy is about revising your story and making you the author of the next chapter.

Accepting new virtual clients. Relationships are opportunities for growth and exploration and yet can be the sources of some of our most painful hurts and losses. Therapy itself is a relationship and I provide space for clients to understand past experiences and restore their capacity to build connection and enjoy pleasure. Working with both individuals and partnerships, I help clients deepen and organize their emotional experience to understand relationship patterns and foster authenticity. I have a fierce commitment to my client’s wellbeing and bring deep humility and nonjudgement to this work.

Allowing yourself to be supported is the first step towards becoming your best self. However, without adequate support, overcoming feelings of sadness, overwhelm, disconnection or insecurity can be an exhausting and isolating experience. This is why I understand the importance of finding the right therapist. You may be seeking to feel truly heard and understood without judgment by someone you can trust to help you feel more grounded, confident, and satisfied in your everyday life. As a therapist, my main goal is to create that safe and trusting relationship to guide and empower you towards achieving ultimate personal growth.

Are you struggling in your relationships? Are you and your partner experiencing conflict that you can't seem to resolve? I can help you understand the underlying issues and needs that lead to withdrawal or anger, and work with you to re-establish strong bonds. Together we will identify the negative patterns that repeat, learn how to interrupt those and to instead create positive conflict resolution skills. I am passionate about the work I do as a therapist, and I respect each person's struggle and strengths.
