Couples Counseling Therapists in Plainfield, IL

I have a passion for journeying with individuals and families who have a hunch or a longing for something different, better, in their lives. Together I collaborate with folks to address how neglected hunches may breed uncomfortable symptoms such as burn out, addictions, isolation and frustrations within relationships. By exploring values, strengths, and communication styles I coach clients through their discomforts and empower them to bring forth a new sense of self-worth and direction.

I believe that therapy is a collaborative space for individuals to gain insight and coping skills that best suit their journey of self-growth. My goal is to provide a non-judgemental, safe, and supportive environment for individuals to become empowered and overcome personal obstacles. I believe that counseling can be compared to the metaphor of how a flower grows. You are the seed, and counseling is the soil and water. The seed already knows exactly how to grow and blossom into a beautiful flower – but it's also important for the seed to have the right type of environment to grow and prosper in.

I enjoy working with children, adolescents, and adults who are comfortable with a one on one approach to counseling. Working with children in therapy always involves working with the parents.

For adults, privacy, confidentiality, and respect occur in a atmosphere of warmth and patience. If you are dealing with Attention Deficit Disorder, Depression, Anxiety, Panic attacks, Bipolar Disorder, or Post Traumatic Stress, I am sure you will find the relief you are looking for at my office.
