Accepting New Clients

At The Marriage Clinic of DuPage we have been saving and strengthening marriages for over 30 years. We understand how hard it is for partners to feel alone in a relationship that was once so close, or to feel they are always letting their partner down or not good enough no matter what they do. We also know how difficult it is for couples who feel they constantly fight with each other, sometimes over seemingly small things or having the same fights over and over.

Discover your healing wisdom, strength and serenity as you confront unhealthy patterns in your relationships. Problems and crises offer invitations to personal or relational growth. We explore strategies for moving forward, whether that means feeling empowered to make changes, or accepting life on life's terms. Learn to respond to difficult situations non-reactively, with curiosity, detachment and compassion. Develop skillful communication which enables you to negotiate healthy boundaries and effectively resolve conflicts. Begin speaking your truth, expecting to be heard. Believe that you deserve to be treated well, with kindness. Learn simple, daily skills which promote happiness and contentment.

Relationships are full of challenges. At times you may feel like your “stuck” in the same communication cycle or emotional patterns with your partner. You might also feel like you have lost a sense of self and struggle with understanding why. You keep trying to improve aspects of your relationship and self, but nothing appears to work. Exploring your feelings, seeking life satisfaction, and reestablishing connection in intimate relationships, may seem stressful, confusing and at times overwhelming. I have a passion for collaborating with individuals and couples in navigating through various life challenges.

We are a team of clinicians that specialize in the treatment of sex and love addiction, including the use of compulsive pornography, partners affected by this behavior, codependency, as well as, post-traumatic stress disorder. We appreciate what it takes to receive treatment and are collaborative, directive, compassionate, and empathic with our clients.

My ideal patient is someone who may be struggling to find relief with just psychotherapy and/or psychotropic medications alone. This is a person who feels stuck and wants to seek alternative approaches towards improving their mental health. From children to elderly patients, neurofeedback is a modality that can benefit almost anyone with a wide array of presenting conditions. If your goal is to improve your cognitive functioning and flexibility and to not feel "stuck" anymore, then consider neurofeedback as a treatment option for you.
