Are you looking to increase your sense of effectiveness with family, work, and friends? I assist individuals and families in sorting out what current and past factors may be contributing to their situation, in order to resolve issues and create space for healing. I am a therapist experienced in collaborating with adults, children and families with a variety of concerns.
I'm all in on supporting your efforts to make life better. Depending on your goals, I may draw on training in attachment and trauma, using research-backed therapies including insight-oriented, cognitive-behavioral therapy, play therapy and parent coaching, as well as Somatic Experiencing.
Consider giving yourself a boost, and reach out to schedule a 15 minute consult today. In person and telehealth appointments are available, my office is in the western suburb of Winfield, and clients are often from DuPage, Kane, or Cook County.
