Adults Therapists in 60204
I have experience working with adults, and honor all the unique facets of identity that my clients bring.
Humans are social creatures, which leads us to be affected by relationships in profound ways. However, relationships are highly complex, and can, at times, be difficult to decipher, form, and maintain. My work with clients has been centered around the development of stronger and healthier relationships, and that work begins with creating and managing powerful bonds between therapist and client. I believe every relationship exists on its own terms and with its own nuances, and I strive to help others see the connections in their lives for what they are, instead of what they wish they were.

When I was looking for my first therapist, I wanted someone older and smarter to tell me what to do, how to take the pain away. Twenty five years and six therapists later, I want a Sherpa - someone who's been where I have yet to go to show me that it's possible. I've already lived through several lifetimes. I've sat through the havoc of a divorce and the shame of causing pain to my children, the confusion of starting anew, the anxiety of dating, the elation of a new love and a crushing heartbreak of a betrayal. The agonizing loneliness of falling asleep in an empty bed and the complete inability to get up the next morning.

Often people see therapy as a one-sided conversation, with the therapist listening to your problems, issues and providing quick solutions. My goal as a therapist is to allow people the space to be honest, vulnerable, and direct in a safe environment. Therapy is a process that requires commitment to vulnerability and an openness to exploring different ways of thinking, approaching problems, and tackling it onward! Therapy does not have to be painful and intimidating! My goal as a therapist is to understand you as a whole person and your thought process and challenge some of those existing thought patterns, behaviors, and frameworks.

While life is beautiful - it also includes hardship, sorrow and deep suffering. Being a mom in today's world can be challenging and overwhelming. Too many mothers struggle with self-blame, shame, guilt, and anger they don't understand. I help moms make sense of their emotions, thoughts, and beliefs so they can shift their lives from the inside out. Mothers' and women's mental health has been de-valued in traditional approaches. I bring in experienced training in Internal Family Systems, a coaching certification with mothers and matrescence, and over a decade of clinical skills and experience.

My ideal in therapy is to be able to set a comfortable environment in which growth can be achieved. I truly believe that a person can overcome and achieve anything that they set their mind to. I like to set an environment in which working together with the client goals can be turned into reality. I do not believe that there is a problem that is too big or small that cannot be tackled with the help of a supportive and motivating environment. Originally I am from Lithuanian that leads me to having a special interest in immigration/assimilation concerns. I have experience working with children, adolescence, and adults.
