Online Therapists in Illinois
I am available Monday-Wednesday in person or telehealth and Thursday via telehealth only.
I’m no stranger to counseling myself and I understand that it can be a difficult process to begin. Human beings have complex experiences and complex emotions. Sometimes, that is a hard thing to explain and explore with a new person. I like to fill my sessions with kindness, compassion, and a lot of humor to make the process a little easier to navigate. You will find that I can be direct at times, but I also love to celebrate the everyday victories you achieve throughout our time together.

I currently have a few virtual openings as of 8/1/25.
You would be a great fit for working with me if you are looking to explore and understand your difficulty and, with that understanding, make appropriate changes that will help you become who you imagine yourself or your situation. I am passionate to work with issues related to grief, life changes, identity, spiritual crisis, self-awareness, assertiveness, relational conflict, communication, overcoming fears, anxiety, depression, vulnerability, shame/guilt, and other everyday life difficulties. I work with individual adults and provide pre-marital counseling.

I am passionate about working with individuals, couples, and families who are seeking greater self understanding, meaning, and connection in their lives. My hope is to build a relationship with you that is personal, genuine, and centers your needs and goals; whether that is related to stressors and worries, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, and more. This foundation can allow us to recognize what patterns, cycles, and blocks you might be facing, what change can look like going forward, and how to achieve that.

I offer therapy via secure video or in-person at Northbrook office.
“Your life doesn’t get better by chance; it gets better by change.”
Something in your relationship has shifted. Maybe you’re thinking about divorce. Maybe a breakup caught you off guard. Maybe you’re dating and starting to notice the same dynamic playing out again. Or maybe you’re in a relationship that matters deeply to you but feel stuck in patterns you don’t know how to stop.
I help individuals and couples understand what’s happening beneath the conflict and make thoughtful decisions about what comes next, whether that’s repair, separation, or starting over differently.

One size does not fit all. No single approach is the right one for every person, which is why I use a range of treatment modalities, when working with my clients. I meet my client where they are at. We work together on developing healthy coping skills, creating goals, and challenging uncomfortable thoughts to alleviate life stress.

I offer therapy sessions online.
Relationships can be hard to navigate, especially when you have been hurt by someone you trusted. How do you trust someone again? Is healing possible? You may find yourself questioning your own identity. Whether you were hurt by a friend, a family member, a significant other, or a co-worker, your pain is valid. It can seem easy to push aside feelings of worthlessness, self-doubt, anger, guilt, and sadness, but eventually, those heavy emotions will start to negatively affect how you connect with others around you and how you view yourself.

Discreet office by coffee, eats, and vinyl - or online.
I work with individuals and couples who are curious about their inner world, want to reconnect with what matters, better understand and communicate their needs, and seek relief from feeling overwhelmed and stuck. People may feel stuck in cycles of fear, avoidance, or frustration due to feeling limited in their confidence, focus, or daily life. Maybe you are navigating life transitions, grief, relationship issues, or symptoms of anxiety, depression, and increased stress. Perhaps you are overwhelmed by the unique pressures of adjusting to college, forming a new identity, joining a new community, or a demanding career.

If you’ve been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just “not yourself,” you’re in the right place. My clients often come to me when life feels heavier than usual—when stress, anxiety, or sadness are getting in the way of how they want to live. You might be someone who looks like you have it together on the outside, but inside, you feel drained, anxious, or disconnected. Or maybe you’ve been pushing through for so long that you don’t even remember what it feels like to feel at ease. I help people slow down, sort through the noise, and reconnect with themselves.

You may be in a space where you’ve tried to do everything on your own, holding it together for everyone else, pouring out your energy into family, work, and relationships, while quietly carrying the weight of your own struggles with no place to lay them down. Maybe you’ve been searching for peace, direction, and clarity, and you’ve come to realize that what’s missing is not just healing for your mind, but restoration for your soul. You're ready to invite God into your healing, and to finally allow yourself to rest in His presence while also doing the work to grow.

If you're someone who feels like they have "been there, done that" when it comes to therapy and are looking for deeper understanding of yourself or your relationship, I just might be your therapist. I believe that while coping skills are fantastic, challenging deeply-held emotional beliefs is what moves people towards lasting change. To do this, I make space for the people I work with to feel understood for exactly who they are. Because I know that when people are able to explore their full selves in a compassionate, curious way, they will be amazed at what they can change (or in some cases, learn to love and accept!).

Throughout our lives we go through experiences that help us define who we are. These moments of connection and isolation, fulfillment and confusion are foundational events that make us, us. These can be life altering experiences; societal forces, traumatic events, difficult relationships, or a series of distressing events that we carry for the rest of our lives. Working through these experiences can be scary. Therapy can help us unpack these moments and lead more meaningful and fulfilling lives. In our sessions, we will explore who you are; your world, beliefs, and values.

Over the years and after receiving thousands of initial calls and emails from clients, it is clear that many are unsure of what they need or where to go. We find great pleasure in helping clients navigate this process. As a group practice we are able to provide services for a variety of needs: anxiety, addictions, pain management, depression, relationship issues, psychological testing, individual, life transitions and even helping clients who just want to live their best life! We stand out in our efforts to make this process as smooth as possible. Many providers boast about their training in a particular treatment approach (and this is important) but research suggests that the interventions are only part of the story. The fit between client and clinician, the wellbeing of the clinician, the ease of access and the experience of the treatment process matter as much, and sometimes more, than the particular treatment model used. Pillars of Wellness was founded with the hope of ensuring an ideal client-clinician fit and providing both clients and clinicians with a positive experience. We let our clinicians excel at their craft by giving them the space to create their ideal practice.

I specialize in treating Trauma (single event, long-term and attachment) with experiential therapies, including EMDR & Somatic Experiencing. These interventions recognize the need to go beyond changing your thoughts and focus on helping people regulate the body sensations and emotions that continue to be experienced. For example: a person may know that a traumatic event is over and yet continue to feel the emotion of anxiety and the body sensation of muscle tension (never truly relaxing or feeling safe). This can activate an impulse to run away from situations, become angry/defensive or shut down (depressed/ avoidant/dissociative)
