Therapists in Illinois

I am a clinical psychologist who uses an orientation to treatment called Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. My area of expertise is such that I am equipped to work with clients struggling with a multitude of issues, such as depression, anxiety, anger. These emotional issues might be precipitated by stressors in the client's life, such as loss of a job, marital conflict, financial strain. Sometimes people feel unhappy or anxious, with no identifiable reason. By using an approach to treatment that actively helps to lessen negative feelings I aide people in living a more productive life.

My approach to treatment is founded on a strong and respectful connection between therapist and client. You are an individual, and I tailor treatment to meet you where you are. Life is challenging, and sometimes we need support, encouragement, guidance, and direction to move forward. I believe achieving balance through greater awareness is the key to a fulfilling life. In an atmosphere of unconditional positive regard, I can provide you with the emotional safety necessary to explore the issues that are holding you back from the life you want to live.

I believe that people have primary accountability for their own lives, and that within each of us is the power and capacity to make choices that will lead to happiness and fulfillment.

I assist my clients along their journey of self-discovery as they learn how to empower themselves to overcome their obstacles. They then are able to make choices that will lead them to the life they want to have.
