I believe that everyone deserves to be seen, understood, and provided room to heal and grow. Many of us carry many competing thoughts and questions, from doubts and fears, to hopes and dreams, or questions we may not feel comfortable addressing with others or even on our own. My hope is that with a genuine, unassuming, and down-to-earth approach to therapy we can foster a trusting, open, and reflective environment and explore whatever is present for you, moving towards growth and healing together.

At the North Suburban Center for Anxiety, I specialize in treating adults, young adults, adolescents, and children with anxiety, OCD, and depression. I recognize that anxiety can be overwhelming, scary, and isolating. However, it is also treatable! Using a skills based approach, I empower clients with the necessary tools to modify their irrational thoughts, confront their fears, and decrease their overall anxiety. I know that therapy (and, let's face it, life) can be difficult, so I take a compassionate, collaborative, and direct approach to teach clients to lean into the anxiety and step out of their comfort zone.
