Therapists in Naperville, IL
My understanding of clients comes from my diverse interests and experience. I initially studied human memory and language processing, and received the Ph.D. in cognitive psychology at the University of Chicago. After gaining diverse experience as a researcher, faculty, consultant, and a full-time mother raising two children in different countries, I decided to work with clients and became a clinical psychologist. I believe therapy is a process of growth in which a client and a therapist collaborate with each other. I strive to provide safe and caring environment where clients can explore their potential to grow.

If you are exhausted with trying the same thing over and over, I can help. I will help you identify areas and habits that keep you stuck and learn skills to help you move forward. I tend to be direct and honest with clients and encourage feedback from you as we move forward.
