You keep everything together for everyone else, but inside it feels like you’re running on empty. The weight of work, family, and unspoken stress has left little room for you. Therapy is where you get to focus on yourself, reset, and find your footing again. I work with adults navigating stress, trauma, and major transitions, including busy parents and professionals who feel overwhelmed. I’m skilled at addressing relational stress in both individuals and couples, and I guide co-parents in reducing conflict. I also provide focused support for women experiencing peri and menopause. I am licensed in IL and WI.
I help couples build trust and closeness using research-based approaches like the Gottman Method, Emotionally Focused Therapy, and parts-work (IFS). I’m direct, fair, and skilled at working with high conflict. With individuals, I use EMDR, narrative exposure and CBT for trauma healing, brain-based tools, and evidence-based strategies tailored to your needs.
You’ve been running on fumes long enough. Therapy isn’t about fixing what’s “wrong” with you, it’s about giving yourself the care you give everyone else. We can laugh, get real, and do the hard work too. If you’re ready to stop surviving and start feeling like yourself again, I’d love to work with you.
