You've been trying to find your way back to your old self again, but are struggling and stuck. Something has to change. For some reason, it seems impossible to do things well enough at work or at school or at home with your family, maybe even with a new baby. You're feeling disconnected and worried about letting people down. It's gotten really hard to keep up. Being stretched so thin and constantly fighting to tread water is taking its toll on your patience, too. Every little thing is irritating. It feels so hopeless to not be able to just pull it together and be more like everyone else around you, especially if you're a new mom.

Are you having difficulties in your relationships? Are you experiencing stress from work or school that you cannot manage? Are you just feeling that you are stuck in life? I can help you find the answers to these problems in therapy. When I work with my clients, I focus on increasing their personal strengths and work toward discovering solutions to their life issues. From helping adults gain mastery and stability in their lives to providing parents and their children with support and psychoeducation to manage their child's needs, I work to help my clients make meaningful life changes.

I specialize in treating addictions to drugs, alcohol, and behaviors such as gambling, sex, Internet, and eating. I also address underlying issues such as anxiety, depression, and relationship problems. I work with adults of all ages individually as well as in groups. My approach to therapy is an interpersonal, client-centered approach. In other words, the client's own treatment goals are of central importance. While issues that initially bring the client into treatment tend to be the primary area of focus, the therapeutic relationship that develops with me is available to be used toward the client's therapeutic goals.

I am a psychotherapist with over 25 years of experience providing individual therapy and couples counseling to adults. My nonjudgmental approach, which entails kindness, empathy, and support coupled with honest and direct feedback, leads my clients to feel safe and understood - vital to successful therapy. In addition to depression and anxiety, relationship issues are a primary focus of mine, whether that involves dissatisfaction with a current relationship, frustration with establishing relationships, or trauma-related experiences with others.

As a therapist, I work with individuals experiencing genuine emotional distress. The circumstances are different for different people - you may be struggling with depression or anxiety, or facing a major life transition. I can be helpful by listening to what you have to say about your situation, offering emotional support and helping you come up with your own solutions to the challenges you face.

It's great you've taken this step. My practice recognizes the normal challenges we face as circumstances change throughout our lifespans. Childhood through Adolescence; School Issues; Marriage, Family and Aging. Adjusting well to these transitions is the key to preventing the "need" for treatment after problems worsen. Learning to manage the complexities of life is facilitated with a therapeutic relationship which is trustworthy and productive. Let's do it together!

Are there issues and concerns in your life that prevent you from being confident and happy? Are you having difficult experiences in your relationships at work, in your social life, or with family? Do you try to resolve these issues but feel you have made little or no progress? You often end up in a familiar pattern feeling disappointed, hopeless, anxious, and angry. You are tired of this feeling and you need a different perspective, another way to resolve these painful, difficult issues. Together we can improve and manage these feelings and restore your confidence and well being.

Life can be challenging. I believe psychotherapy with a therapist who is a good match can help one to more successfully navigate those challenges. I work collaboratively with my clients. I aim to create a nonjudgmental and supportive environment to explore difficult issues together -- to better understand what one is currently facing, to help manage those difficulties, and to ultimately make life more rewarding and meaningful.

My focus is on helping people improve their lives. I feel healing is a combination of art and science that encompasses therapist, individuals, couples and families. I have 25 years of experience in resolving anxiety, stress and mood disorders including relationship issues, eating disorders, milestones (death, divorce) and chronic illness.

I provide parent coaching for children with both typical development, medical issues, developmental concerns, and sensory integration disorder. I empower families to manage behavior concerns at home. I have expertise in adults with chronic illness and the anxiety/depression that is associated with chronic pain. I have an eclectic approach using psychodynamic, family systems, and cognitive behavioral theories in treatment. When working with a family/child the whole family would be included in the process so everyone can feel empowered.

I love helping others to make sense of their issues through an integrative approach. My specialties are, (1) Couples, Families and Individuals; (2) Multicultural Issues; (3) Work with actors, models, and sexual workers; (4) Negotiations.

My office is a comfortable sanctuary, where you are treated with dignity and respect, and where you can openly explore your concerns. What we talk about will be kept confidential and not be judged. As I get to know you, I will seek to understand what you are going through, learn what you expect from counseling, and with you, set goals for our time together. One of my goals is that at the end of each session, you will leave feeling accepted, more hopeful, and more confident.

I am a licensed Clinical Psychologist who has been in practice for over 25 years. I have come to believe that so much of what makes therapy work is the relationship which is established between my clients and me. If you come and see me I will spend a good amount of time really getting to know you: trying to understand your therapeutic issues as well as your history, personal strengths, and weaknesses.

Therapy is a relationship. I am here to meet you where you are and assist you in meeting goals and fulfilling your potential. By supporting you, identifying behaviors and beliefs that are sabotaging your health and happiness, and providing information and education about ways to improve your life and relationships, I strive to create a safe place for you to talk about difficult issues. I work with adults, couples and adolescents on a variety of issues, including depression, anxiety, mood disorders, personality disorders, grief, LGBT issues, work/life balance, and adjustment to life changes. I provide non-judgemental support.

I am a Clinical Psychologist in private practice in the Andersonville/Edgewater neighborhood of Chicago. I provide individual, family and/or couples therapy with adults, adolescents, and children age five and up. My style is warm, non-judgmental, compassionate, and direct. I believe a strong, trusting, collaborative relationship with one's therapist is vital to realizing change and experiencing growth. I take particular care in tailoring interventions to meet an individual's needs and emphasize their strengths. My approach is largely based on cognitive-behavioral and relational techniques.

I'm a licensed clinical psychologist. In my 25+ years as a psychotherapist I've come to appreciate the wisdom found in various therapeutic models. So I've developed an integrative approach. I believe it's important to tailor the therapy to the individual. Our past, present, and future all influence our choices and behaviors. So I find it helpful to put on trifocals to see where we're at, how we got here, and where we want to go. As social beings our interpersonal relationships are vital to our well-being and happiness. Sometimes our interpersonal style helps us connect with others; sometimes it gets in the way of our relationships. Checking out our personality style is often beneficial. As individuals we are unfolding in our own unique way and I believe there is an inner wisdom that leads us to who we are and what we really desire. Sometimes we get disconnected from ourselves and need to get back in touch by looking inward. My office has a comfortable living room feel to it. The location provides privacy, is easily accessible by public transportation, and parking is readily available. I have weekday, evening, and weekend hours.

Hi, I'm Dr. Greg. Helping clients cope with depression, anxiety, trauma, and relationship issues is the focus of my practice. I try to maintain a balanced approach using an individual blend of theory and insight, practical applications, and humor. This can include discussions of physical, emotional, mental, and metaphysical wellbeing. Anger, work stress, frustration, loss, trauma and life's unexpected complications can get in between us and a daily peaceful experience of living. Assisting people in overcoming these challenges is my life's work. Please reach out to someone if it seems your life is being directed by negative emotions.

Feeling overwhelmed? Anxious? Depressed? Together we can work to develop the insight and coping skills that will help you feel better, enjoy healthier relationships and empower you to live your best life. I understand that seeking help isn't easy, so I strive to develop a warm, empathic, accepting, and collaborative environment where you can feel comfortable discussing the issues that concern you, learn about the cognitive, social, and behavioral factors that can help, and develop effective coping and communication skills.

People seek therapy for various reasons. It takes a lot of courage to recognize that things aren't working and to seek help. Have you been struggling with specific problems involving work, family, or relationships? Or have you perhaps been suffering from something harder to define, such as persistent feelings of meaninglessness or sadness? Whether the problem is easy or hard to identify, I'm here to help.
