Autism Therapists in Lombard, IL

Are you looking for a therapist for your preteen or teen? Or perhaps your a teen yourself looking for guidance. Do you or your child struggle with their emotions, friendships, perfectionism, anxiety, or a life stressor? Do you or your child have difficulty at school, appropriate social skills, or executive functioning? Well, you have come to the right place!

I have experience working with adults and teens and especially enjoy working with the LGBTQIA+ community and neurodiverse humans. I am passionate about treating anxiety, depression, interpersonal trauma, gender and sexual identity exploration, religious abuse, and life transitions. Embarking on the journey of healing can feel like traveling without a map. It is both terrifying and beautiful. I believe that no matter how difficult it may seem, every person is capable of healing, growth, and resilience.

Are you looking for a trustworthy and compassionate collaborator to help you navigate challenges in your life? I am passionate about helping my clients process their pasts, problem solve and work through current issues, and create meaningful change in their lives. As a therapist, I am gentle and warm and I make it a goal to help clients feel comfortable quickly. By honoring your individuality and the unique circumstances that bring you to therapy, I can help you build upon your strengths, optimize your self awareness, and create the life you want!

Do you live in a constant state of anxiety? Are you experiencing feelings of depression that you have difficulty managing? I am experienced in helping people find solutions to manage their life in a more positive light. I believe that the connection the therapist makes with the client is vital. That connection allows the client to open up and express their concerns to the therapist, and together they can discover strategies for improvement. I help clients work on symptom reduction and help them achieve the goals they want in their lives by creating small, achievable steps.

Are you feeling stuck, alone, or overwhelmed? Are you distressed by emotions of sadness, anxiety, or loneliness? Are you feeling unsupported or lost in your current relationship? I aim to provide a safe space to release your thoughts, process your emotions and behaviors, and heal. For whatever reason, you ended up here—and I am so glad you did! I'm here to help you by providing a warm and welcoming environment for you to be your most authentic you. I provide couples and family counseling, as well as individual psychotherapy.

I am honored to be a part of the process of you reaching out for guidance and help. If you are a parent of a struggling child or a caregiver to an elderly relative experiencing changes and decline, I hope that I can be of assistance. I believe in treating the individual as well as making sure to examine their system of support. While the bulk of the work I do is 1:1 with the patient, I am also available to be supportive to caregivers. I also put a strong emphasis on the relational part of the therapeutic process, as it is the key to communication and understanding.

I am a compassionate trauma-informed therapist that primarily works with individuals struggling with trauma/PTSD, ADHD, neurodivergent issues, relationship issues, chronic pain, physical disability, partner violence, substance abuse, anxiety, stress, depression, cultural identity, cultural/intergenerational conflicts, family conflicts, and other issues. As a daughter of South Asian immigrants, I have always been interested in working with traditionally overlooked communities. I have worked with individuals with dual diagnosis, domestic violence survivors, veterans, and LGBTQIA individuals.

Are you feeling stressed, anxious, burnt out, alone, or just do not know where you should be in your life right now? I can help. I strive to have my clients feel like they are heard through the establishment of a safe, collaborative, and non-judgmental space by developing a strong therapeutic relationship and teaching you the skills you need to succeed in your personal goals. When you’re ready to leave the stresses of life behind for good and learn the skills you need to succeed, I’m ready to help you.
