Hey. Take a deep breath. You’ve got this. I know the prospect of “seeing a therapist” can seem daunting, scary even, and maybe you’re not fully ready yet to collaborate with one. I say give yourself some credit. Simply scrolling profiles means you’ve chosen to take a first step. I thank you for resting here for a bit and considering Inner Focus to help you through.

Our approach recognizes that all people are born with an innate potential and desire to be happy, to feel good about themselves, and to experience close, positive loving relationships, but often times learned self-sabotaging patterns can get in the way. We help people create the kind of life that they want for themselves by turning away from self-sabotaging behaviors, and turning towards self-caretaking and constructive coping choices for a more fulfilling life.

In my work, the first goal is to create a safe and supportive environment that allows for greater understanding of the concerns, symptoms, and struggles that bring you to treatment. Change is possible with the willingness to explore one's inner life and contend with the conflicts inhibiting you from a greater sense of freedom. Psychotherapy/psychoanalysis is a demanding endeavor but the benefits are immeasurable!

Life can be hard. Being a college student can be hard. Life transitions (like starting college) often make it clear that some things just aren’t working. Maybe you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, anxious, alone, or depressed. Emotions, worries, or confusion become overwhelming and lead to unhelpful patterns. You've tried everything, but nothing has worked. You wonder if it will ever get better. All you want is peace, stability, and confidence in the direction your life is going. To feel good about yourself and your choices. To feel comfortable in your own skin and to believe in your ability to succeed.

Can't sleep? Let's talk about it! I love working with people who are new to or curious about therapy. Sessions are dedicated times where you can openly share what's going on in your life and in your brain. Do you need to process by exploring your family's D&D alignments or equating your co-workers to the 2010 Blackhawks roster? Let's do it. Your therapy sessions will be specific to you - there are no right or wrong answers. Together we can figure out what you need to feel better and work on getting you there. All you have to do is show up and be willing to try things.
