It's a brave decision to seek therapy and the experience can be the greatest gift you give yourself. I offer a relaxing space where you can reflect and focus on personal growth and positive change. I provide positive feedback to help you address current life challenges and resolve long standing issues. Often the goal of therapy can be as simple as becoming aware of patterns and understanding how your motivations are linked to certain behaviors.

You may reach a point where who you are on the outside no longer matches what you’re carrying inside. As a trauma-informed therapist in Chicago, I understand how easy it is to hide parts of yourself from friends or family just to avoid conflict or to fit in. Over time, it may start to feel like no one truly knows the real you. Stress can show up in many ways—through increased drinking, bingeing or restricting food, or turning to other coping behaviors. You may even be in recovery and still feel like life is unmanageable, which can be discouraging. You don’t have to feel stuck. Change is possible, and hope is within reach."

I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with 18 years experience working with children, tweens, teens, adolescents, young adults and their families.

As we address and manage these conditions we find ourselves, often times, needing help to do so.
