Working in schools has given me the opportunity to address issues such as anxiety, depression, attachment, trauma, PTSD, grief/loss, learning disabilities, ADHD, self-esteem, emotion regulation, and Autism.
Sometimes even day to day activities can feel overwhelming. Whether you are a child just starting school, an adolescent going through changes, a young adult navigating being on your own for the first time, or a parent who is struggling with understanding your child, know that you are never alone. Taking that first step in asking for help and seeking out therapy is understandably difficult, even if it isn’t the first time, but can make a world of difference. Therapy is a way to better understand you and/or your child’s experiences, while also creating healthy coping skills, boundaries, and sense of self.

I work primarily with clients who have more than one issue they want to address; multiple mental health diagnoses, mental illness and physical illness/pain, or relationship issues (parenting support, intimate relationships, family issues) due to mental health/addiction struggles. I started my career in addiction counseling about 17 years ago and then sought to learn about other mental health issues that typically go along with it. This grew my knowledge in ADHD, Trauma, OCD, Eating Disorders, and other specialties, so that both/all issues could be treated well. I hold my CADC and love helping loved ones of addicts too!

Utilizing a variety of approaches and styles, my passion is helping individuals and systems overcome life changes, stressors, and figuring out the “why”. I have experience supporting those of all ages with depression, anxiety, executive functioning issues, career development, and most recently, I spent 2 years leading facilities catered to those struggling with the disease of addiction. Discomfort comes from incongruence within yourself - between what is present and what you’d like to be. You are the expert on your life, and together we can make sure you are on the path to being the best version of you possible!

Hi there! Good for you for looking for a therapist :) I encourage you to do consultations or sessions with multiple therapists. You'll quickly see that we're vastly different. Remember grade school teachers? They could make or break a class, and maybe there were only a few you really connected with. Also true for therapists! So book at least a few consults and sessions. Two major things to look for are emotional safety ("Can I share things without feeling judged?") and resonance ("Do they get me?"). Most importantly, practice trusting your intuition; in this way, the search itself can be therapeutic.

When it comes to mental health treatment, our approach is simple and unique: our accomplished team of physicians and therapists work together to diagnose and treat your body, mind and spirit as a whole. We are one of the few practices combining traditional treatment with evidence-based alternative therapies, all under one roof. We are privileged to have changed the lives of many families in Chicago's North Shore, as well as out-of-state and foreign visitors. Our "whole body" approach to treating mental health conditions is supported by clinical studies. These include but are not limited to: Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), diet and exercise, spiritual/social evaluation, yoga and art therapy. Many still focus only on the brain, treating symptoms, not causes. In many cases they over-prescribe medications. While our physicians do prescribe medications as needed, what sets us apart is our commitment to explore all options. We search for root causes and provide the most appropriate treatment, not merely the most convenient one. When we do prescribe, we go the extra mile to customize a plan that minimizes side effects. You and your family deserve the best in healthcare!

I believe individuals manage the best they can, but these efforts do not always naturally translate to happiness or self-fulfillment. Oftentimes, situations cause us pain and in response, we spend considerable energy safeguarding our vulnerabilities at the expense of our well-being. Managing emotional distress alone can feel overwhelming, which is why we often need help from a sensitive, knowledgeable professional.

Individuals and families may seek out support for a variety of reasons, from natural life transitions to difficult traumas that cause major ruptures in life, to exploration of family dynamics and consequential behaviors/interactions. I see myself as a supportive and collaborative relationship in the lives of children, adolescents, and adults who are looking for support to better understand what is contributing to their behaviors, relationships, and ways of being in the world. I believe that through learning and understanding more, we can make change together for an improved experience of functioning and thriving in the world.

Whether your present situation involves long standing internal issues, current life situations, or a combination of both, I can help you identify the sources of your discomfort. I often find that there is a parallel component of shame, self rebuking that comes with this discomfort. If so, it becomes a goal between me and the client to help lift this burden. Helping to develop an improved perspective, can in and of itself be quite reassuring. Perhaps surprising, humor often finds it's way into our sessions. I find that there is much relief to be had through shared laughter and the commonality of human experiences.
