Adults Therapists in 60022
My experience includes working with children, teens, and adults who come to therapy for a wide range of mental health and life concerns.
My approach comes from a patient-centered standpoint. I believe the patient/therapist relationship is based on safety, trust, and honesty. You are the expert on your own life and I will be there for support and guidance. You do not always have control over your emotions and thoughts, but you have the power to change those thoughts from negative to positive. You gain insight and become self-aware when you are doing what you are comfortable with. I enjoy incorporating expressive arts into counseling, when appropriate, because there are many ways for patients to express their own thoughts and emotions.

I specialize in treating patients with Asperger's Syndrome, ADHD, OCD, Social Skills Building, Teens and Young Adults, Self-Esteem, Behavior Management, Guys' issues, and the difficult emotions surrounding grief and loss.
My patient-focused therapeutic approach is designed to promote positive outcomes for patients who are facing some of life's toughest challenges, and guide them to use their inner strength to become more confident and ultimately meet their goals. All of this is accomplished in an empathic way, while I listen and offer feedback. As they grow, my patients become happier and more successful in their lives.

I've worked with patients of many different ages and backgrounds and have experience working with teens, adults, families and couples in individual, family, and couples counseling on a wide range of issues.
I approach my patients in a non-judgmental way with deep empathy and acceptance. My 40 years as a restructuring lawyer gives him the unique life experience to help my patients identify the problems that brought them into therapy, and then engage with them in a journey to find the individual strengths they already possess to move past the problem and forward with their lives. Many patients come into therapy believing that they are the problem that is preventing them from living a happy and fulfilling life. I seek to separate the person from the problem and explore the ways in which the problem is acting as a barrier.

Making the decision to engage in therapy can be difficult and overwhelming. I invite adolescents, emerging adults, adults and couples to enter a confidential space where they are free to explore their experiences and emotions without judgement. My role is to assist clients in identifying the patterns that cause them to be stuck and help them develop strategies to improve confidence and engage with the important people in their lives more effectively.

To help, I draw on my cumulative 25 years of experience treating adolescents and adults in collaborative, multi-disciplinary settings- community mental health centers, university counseling centers and hospitals.
How are you with what you're feeling and not feeling? When a person is consumed with difficulties, life is a chore, often filled with anxiety, dread, pervasive unhappiness or no feeling at all. My goal is to help you achieve the perspective in your life that provides room for pleasure, acceptance, fulfilling relationships and a capacity to cope positively with life struggles. Through exploring together, we discover insights that can facilitate active behavioral change, improved management of symptoms and a sense of well being. Treatment is specific and individual, evolving progressively from the unique juxtaposition of your needs and responses.

My practice is focused on adults presenting with anxiety and depression, relationship issues, and situational stress.
Seeking care can take tremendous courage and finding the right therapist is not always a straightforward process. I see my role as providing a reliable and consistent space where my patients can gradually better understand themselves so that they can live life more freely and fully. I try to help my patients develop curiosity about how their mind works and to recognize when they may be repeating certain unhealthy patterns that interfere with becoming their authentic selves.

I've worked with kids, adolescents, and adults in outpatient/community mental health, schools, and taught at the graduate level.
We all face challenging moments in our lives—whether we are experiencing anxiety or sadness, difficulty coping with life events, conflictual relationships, or a desire for a greater self-esteem. As a therapist, I can help you identify your unique gifts and needs, free you from maladaptive patterns, examine your past, and allow you to take charge of your life story. The power of therapy and our therapeutic relationship can get you moving. After all, sometimes we need an objective listener, someone to validate us, challenge us, and offer new perspectives. The same applies to kids and I often utilize play for assessing and treatment.
