Teletherapy for Tinley Park, IL

I have a strong belief in the human spirit, and that individuals inherently possess the ability to make very powerful changes in their lives. I help to provide effective tools for transforming negative self-talk into a more motivating and inspiring internal process. I gently challenge habitual emotional reactions that tend to hijack a person's ability to think clearly. Once a person is able to manage these struggles a bit better, he/she/they are able to achieve better emotional regulation and make optimal choices toward personal growth and well-being.

We have all had that feeling of being stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how things might turn out. It could be something from our past, something from our current daily lives, or something about the unknown future that is giving us that feeling. All we want is to move forward. I’m here to work with you on building your existing strengths and learning the skills needed to overcome those feelings and challenges.

Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the Chicagoland area. For most of my career, I have worked with individuals who have experienced trauma and are struggling to manage their daily lives. I specialize in the treatment of children/adolescents, adults, and families struggling with Trauma, Depression, Behavioral Issues, Sexualized Behavior Problems, and PTSD. My goal is to help my clients develop greater insight and effective strategies to manage stress and distressing situations in their lives. I believe my biggest strength is my ability to connect with my clients

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed School Counselor and Certified Life Coach. My work experience spans multiple areas including private practice, behavioral healthcare organizations, public and private schools, and mental health hospitals where I provided individual, group counseling and education. I have worked extensively with teenagers, families, individuals and children. My therapeutic approach includes family systems, eclectic and holistic approaches and other interventions that allow individuals and families as co-facilitators of emotional healing. I feel I have a keen ability to listen and understand my clients.

Everyone experiences periods of stress, sadness, grief and conflict, and talking to a professional can make a huge impact. If you're reading this, congratulations on taking the courageous and positive first step towards changing what is no longer working in your life.

Something feels off. You can’t quite put your finger on it; but some “shit” feels weird. You don’t feel like you can trust people so you isolate yourself from others because being fake feels phony to you. You are tired of fighting; but you can’t give up because there is a constant thought in your head “Who is going to take care of my child(ren)?” Nobody. So, you shake it off and keep pretending like everything is fine.

We are living in a world that is forever changing. There is no stop or pause button to help us catch up or even adjust. We are constantly bombarded with various life challenges. Most times when we are in the middle of those challenges we forget to check in with ourselves. We forget to nourish our spirits, minds and body. When that happens it can lead us to a dark place where our traumas and how we deal with them come to surface. Counseling can help address all these things and more. I can provide a safe, non-judgmental space to help deal with those challenges. We can work together to help you create a plan that best fits your needs.

With supportive guidance and a safe therapeutic environment, we can help you overcome the struggles of everyday life. Together, we will develop a customized treatment plan to achieve your personal goals. We specialize in treating a wide range of symptoms and diagnoses. Our clinicians see parents, toddlers, children, adolescents and adults. We offer unique services for students and professionals to accommodate their scheduling needs. We also provide support for adults who are preparing for pre-retirement or early retirement.

You know what feels better than keeping those bottled-up feelings inside? Letting them out in a safe space, with a clinician that will demonstrate unconditional positive regard. I am a licensed clinical professional counselor with 6+ years of experience working with adolescents, teens, young adults, and families. I strive to provide a therapeutic environment that allows for my clients to address current and historical stressors. I am a humanistic therapist whose passion is to walk alongside my client’s journey to their “ideal self.”

Sometimes the only way out is through. I help overwhelmed children, teens, adults, and parents overcome daily life struggles. I offer in-person and telehealth options to treat anxiety, OCD, depression, and inattention for clients of all ages. College students and out-of-state travelers may continue telehealth while they are staying in eligible states. I also offer more flexible scheduling options to meet the needs of business professionals, healthcare providers, school faculty and students.

At some point in our lives we will experience emotional and psychological distress. Most people will try to avoid or go through their distress without seeking help. People choose to do this because they are not sure how therapy will help them. I view psychotherapy as a collaborative, co-creative process between the client and therapist. If you or your family have been experiencing symptoms of depression, anxiety, or just going through difficult times, please allow me to support and guide you in the healing process. Together, we can face and overcome life's stressors! Evening hours are available!
