Anxiety, PTSD, and substance use can leave you feeling misunderstood, exhausted, or stuck in patterns no one else seems to notice. You may be replaying painful events, coping with constant worry, or trying to change a relationship with substances while life keeps moving. Change is possible, and reaching out is a courageous step toward relief. These challenges often overlap with neurodiversity or past military service, shaping how symptoms show up and how healing happens. Together, we will meet you where you are and build practical strategies that fit your life.
I specialize in anxiety, PTSD, and substance use and have several years of experience. In sessions, we focus on safety, clear steps, and skills you can use in real moments to reduce overwhelm. The goal is to ease distress, strengthen coping, and reduce harm from substance use.
Call or message for a free 15-minute consultation to see if we are a good fit. I offer supportive, nonjudgmental care aimed at helping you feel steadier and more in control. Sessions offered via telehealth and in-person at Lakeview in Chicago, IL. Insurance: Aetna, BCBS, and Optum accepted; evening appointments available.
