ADHD Therapists in Chicago, IL

I work with individuals and couples to navigate their relationships, especially when one person is neurodiverse. I also help folks with ADHD and mild ASD develop better communication skills, get more organized, and set boundaries. It can be really exhausting trying to fit in all the time, and I’m here to make things a bit easier.

Asking for help isn't easy and takes a great deal of courage. I greatly respect the individuals I work with and do my best to make their experience one that feels healing and encouraging. I work with children, teens, and adults with anxiety, depression, ADHD, chronic medical conditions, trauma, and difficulties with relationships, life transitions, and self-esteem. I utilize a warm and thoughtful approach to create a genuine and collaborative partnership with each individual I work with.

Hi, I'm a licensed clinical social worker committed to partnering along the journey towards resilience, empowerment, and overall well-being. My approach is founded on compassion, authenticity, and collaboration. I strive to create a warm and non-judgmental space where you can openly explore your thoughts, feelings, and life experiences. With experience across the lifespan and different treatment settings, I draw from evidence-based treatment modalities and tailor my interventions to meet each person’s unique needs and goals.

Welcome! I am a Licensed Social Worker with a deep passion for supporting clients through their unique journeys. I believe that my clients are the true experts in their own lives. My role is to support and empower you, offering guidance as you navigate the complexities of your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Together, we will explore your concerns, foster growth, and work towards positive change. I have a clinical background in working with children, adolescents, and adults. My experience includes addressing anxiety, depression, ADHD, self-esteem issues, and challenges related to impulse control and self-regulation.

Do you find yourself struggling to connect with others? Do you find that anxiety, fear of judgement from others or symptoms of ADHD prevents you from meeting new people, creating deeper connections with acquaintances, finding a romantic partner, speaking your mind or attending social events altogether? Is it hard to show your real self in social situations or at work, so you "mask" or hide that part of yourself, because you find it difficult to accept who you are and criticize yourself often? Well, this doesn't have to be your experience forever.

I believe counseling is one of the greatest gifts we can give to ourselves. My goal as a therapist is to help clients live happier, healthier and more productive lives. Through the use of various psychotherapy methods and collaborative treatment measures, clients can develop life-changing habits to help cope with any of life’s various obstacles. My therapy sessions are designed to address personal issues and help you gain a more positive sense of self, learn more effective coping strategies to deal with stress and discomfort, and strengthen your relationships.

Struggling with anxiety, overcome by stress, can't "think" your way out of that box? I can help you get unstuck, and work with your own unique strengths to overcome problem areas, and find greater joy and peace of mind. I offer a safe, welcoming environment in which to understand yourself and others, and to use the past as a powerful guide for gaining insight and clarity about how to get more of what you really want. I help individuals and couples create healthy communication and connection in their relationships, with greater confidence and self-awareness. I am also an ADHD-certified clinical services provider (ADHD-CCSP).
