People that are looking for professional mental health services come from all ethnicities, backgrounds, and walks of life. Some are in the twilight of their lives, while others are just getting started. Some need help with delicate relationship struggles, while others may find that they are searching for a diagnosis to help them finally make sense of things. Then there are those that are just looking for someone to talk to about what is going on in their lives. What you need to remember though, is that no matter what you are looking to get help with, you are not alone. The first step can be the hardest, but here you are!

Nick’s strength-based approach to therapy focuses on meeting a patient where they are and providing authentic, professional guidance. Nick’s goal is to create a space where patients feel comfortable speaking open and honestly about what brought them to therapy. His approach often includes skill building, psychoeducation, and introspection mixed with integration. He believes with the right clinician we are all capable of positively impacting our own mental health and well-being. Nick will remain focused on tailoring services to the specific needs of the individual wherever they may be in their lives.

You're so tired of feeling anxious and down. It's crept into your thoughts, your body, and your relationships. To be honest, you're so worn out that you aren't able to savor the people or the things you once loved. The routine of “pushing through” has become exhausting. Even worse, those around you don’t understand that you are not “just sad” or “just a worrier.” When you open up about your pain, you are met with platitudes like “relax,” or “your life is so great.” These comments imply that this is “all in your head.” You’ve begun to think the same yourself. You know something needs to change, but you don’t know where to turn.

Having issues with anxiety, past traumas, or just not feeling like yourself? Let us work together on a path to heal restoratively. I believe in the power of restorative practices and that each and every one of us has a story and I believe in the power of having our stories heard. I also believe that we all deserve a space where that story can be heard without judgment, fear or trepidation. I want to hear yours and walk beside you as you share your story and work through your journey of healing and restoration. I won't ever perceive to be the expert in your life but I will always be honest, receptive and give you my best.

I bring extensive knowledge with over 15 years of experience, specializing in helping individuals navigate traumatic life experiences within child welfare and public health fields. I passionately believe in fostering connections and combating isolation to improve mental health outcomes. I value creating relationships based on honesty, accountability, and warmth using Functional Analytic Psychotherapy as a framework to assist clients in overcoming complex trauma and anxiety.

My idea of an ideal client is one who is brave enough to ask for help. We are not born with innate problem solving skills in all areas of life. Every one of us is unique and have different experiences and outlooks on life. When there is a lack of cohesion in ones life or struggles in relationships, emotional issues, we may need to reach out to a professional for guidance. Even clients who are less than cooperative or unwilling to engage in therapy can be helped with a good therapist. I can provide that guidance and help you be the best "you" you can be. We've only got one life to live. The goal is, to live it well!

Our clients enjoy humor, are honest, and are wanting to try new things if it makes sense to them. Some want relief from depression, or various forms of anxiety including trauma and grief. Others struggle with addictions and addictive behavior and are looking for ways to feel more in control. Or, they have concerns about their kids, ADHD, autism, or other behavior, and would like someone to come along side them to help support them or their child. Services are also available in Spanish. Christian counseling can be requested. Prefer Communication Coaching to Therapy? Find our app (MinuteMood.com) on Google Play and Apple Play stores.

Emotions are the core of human life and experience, and yet we often have a very difficult time navigating what our emotions are trying to tell us about ourselves, how we perceive others, and what's valued in our lives. Through the therapeutic relationship I seek to work together with clients to achieve both better mental and emotional health and greater contentment with life.

I've been a licensed clinical psychologist for over 24 years and have been working in the field for over 45. I received my Ph.D. from the University of Chicago and work in the Chicago area in hospitals and in private practice. My approach to therapy is integrative. I have certification in clinical hypnosis and like to work with patients on practical strategies to improve their lives. Once particular problems are addressed, addressing life's meaning and personal potential is always important.

In my practice I specialize in relational therapy for couples, families, business partners and adult males. Couples relationships are comprised of two elements, companionship and intimacy. Whenever there are difficulties in either area, the benefits of the relationship suffer. This might be from recurrent communication issues, infidelity, sexual problems, finances, etc. Deepening the connection of companionship with the joy of intimacy will create the space for lifelong, transformative partnering.

In building a therapeutic relationship with me, my hope is to be able to guide you in the areas you may be struggling in, and help you get to a place of acceptance, comfort, and strength. In doing this, I will provide you with the support and tools you may be searching for. It is very important for me to meet you where you are at on your therapy journey and find ways to help you create and maintain goals by providing you with guidance and resources specifically for you.
