Feeling stuck can be so frustrating. Where do we go when our usual coping skills stop working?
Having experienced both sides of this question, I have a deep understanding of the challenges involved, both personally and professionally. This is where therapy can be especially helpful in identifying and removing obstacles. While it isn’t a cure-all, it can play an important role in healing.
By integrating more imaginative approaches alongside cognitive methods, therapy can help clear these roadblocks and support deeper, more holistic healing.

My approach is engaging, interactive, collaborative, and curiously attuned to my client’s needs. I believe in forming a trusting therapeutic relationship for facilitating transformative personal growth. I work with individuals and couples, providing a safe space to uncover core issues, limiting beliefs, and unhealthy patterns that keep you feeling out of alignment or stuck. I utilize a range of modalities primarily based on attachment theory. Our attachment styles are formed during early childhood development and fall on a spectrum from insecure to secure attachment.

I work with clients who want to build a stronger sense of self, unlearn victim narratives and instead want to foster more self-love, compassion, and unapologetic confidence. They are recovering people-pleasers, people who are intellectually self-aware but need help creating lasting change, adult children of immigrants, people with emotionally immature parents, people who struggle with love and dating, and/or those healing from abuse. My clients will learn to process their unresolved trauma and release patterns that no longer serve them. I'm a therapist who isn't afraid to actively challenge you to build the life you want to live.

For many people, adulthood brings layered responsibilities and expectations that can test the boundaries of our current coping strategies. We may notice we are experiencing more anxiety, burnout, emotional distress, and feelings of disconnection. Concerns that can be made more complicated by the complex intersection of identity, relationships, history, and the broader systems we live in.

I work with high achievers, perfectionists, and people-pleasers who feel disconnected from joy and meaning. You deserve a life that feels more true, aligned, and authentically you.

I specialize in couples and relationship issues, codependency, attachment concerns, women’s issues, sexual identity exploration, religious trauma, anxiety, depression, and LGBTQ+ affirming care.

Somewhere along the way, you may have lost touch with what feels true for you. I work with adults and couples across Chicago, including Lincoln Park and Lakeview, who are navigating relationship challenges, anxiety, depression, religious trauma, identity exploration, or major life changes.

I operate from an attachment lens and the belief that needs for attachment, connection, belonging, and acceptance are ever-present, often-overlooked drivers in our lives. Unmet attachment needs - whether past or present - can profoundly impact mood, self-esteem, and, of course, our relationships with others. I utilize a multiculturally sensitive, integrative approach to help individuals and couples gain insight into attachment needs, better communicate those needs with partners and loved ones, recognize and change unhealthy patterns and dynamics, and practice self-love.

You may be the person everyone else relies on while quietly feeling overwhelmed, anxious, disconnected, or exhausted yourself. I work with teens and adults who have spent a long time carrying too much - trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, or the pressure of trying to hold everything together.

Having the same fights over and over without resolution? I help couples figure out how to fully resolve their conflicts and stop getting stuck in the same cycles.
It's hard to enjoy life when relationship problems are chronically unresolved. It's even worse when the past hangs over the relationship, or you feel like room-mates. If your relationship problems are weighing down your otherwise great life, then counseling can make a big difference.
