Sleep or Insomnia Therapists in Skokie, IL
Much like the character Hamlet says to his friend in the play by William Shakespeare “there is more in heaven and earth than is dreamt of in our philosophy”. There is so much about life and living, loving and losing than we can possibly understand. Whatever philosophical ideas we hold, there is so much that remains unknowable. Because it resonates with my own respect for and curiosity about the mystery of being alive, my clinical practice is informed by existential thinking. Why is this happening? How can I survive? What does it mean? These are the questions underlying our reactions to and feelings about our lives.

Hi, I’m a first-generation Mexican-American bilingual therapist (Hablo Español) offering compassionate, non-judgmental care for individuals ready to heal, grow, and reconnect with themselves. I’m committed to supporting the Latinx community, LGBTQ+ individuals, teens, college students, young adults, eldest daughters, and señoras navigating life’s challenges.

I use a collaborative treatment approach and different behavioral therapies to help clients develop skills to live more effective and meaningful lives. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is at the core of supporting clients to reach their goals. I focus on each client and their level of need and recognize what works with one individual may not work for another. I use evidence based treatment to best support each client to help navigate their journey. I am passionate about mental health issues and strongly believe that given the right tools and resources, anyone can improve their mental health.

Ideal clients respect the boundaries of the relationship and know when and how to use their therapist (who helps). It's an old joke that people come to therapy because of someone else who really needs it, but to me, we're all a little (or a lot) blind to our own stuff. Therapy is, or should be, a safe place. Most seasoned therapists are still in it because they find it effective and personally gratifying. I guess I'm one.

I believe the most successful clients are open-minded and curious, patient with the therapeutic process, and motivated to put in the work necessary to create the change they want to see in themselves and their lives. In my holistic practice I help clients gain tools and skills they need to manage their symptoms, while also tending to the deeper mechanisms at play that are at the root of these symptoms.

I believe therapy is a gift to oneself of a safe space to explore, reflect, understand, and identify what is important. It is necessary to challenge my clients to confront unfinished business within themselves in order to live freely in the present moment. Recognizably, I am not the expert in the therapeutic space—you are. I value collaboratively and energetically working towards a sense of healing and understanding.

I work with individuals and couples that are ready to prioritize the work of therapy so they can be more self-aware, move through their days with more ease, and have more functional relationships. Maybe you’ve seen therapists in the past, and now find yourself seeking more from therapy than someone who listens and validates. I strive to offer concrete takeaways from our sessions.

Therapy, for me, is not only about easing pain—it is about awakening to the life that waits on the other side of it. I work with adults who feel a pull toward personal growth, deeper self-understanding, and spirituality. My approach is psychodynamic, Jungian, and developmental, creating a reflective space where you can slow down, listen inward, and make sense of the story your life has been telling. I am especially drawn to working with therapists who need a place to process their own countertransference, and with artists and creative individuals who wrestle with the emotional and existential weight of creativity.
