Let's Connect (847) 696-8971
The world was already complicated...and then COVID happened. I am passionate about helping my clients regain a sense of control, empowerment, and calm in their lives. I specialize in working with adults impacted by depression, anxiety, family stressors, addictions, and disordered eating.
I believe therapy is a collaboration between client and therapist, meaning I will never assume I am the expert on your life. I believe in working together to uncover roots and patterns of behaviors you want to change or explore. And if/when you're ready, I will assist you in creating new patterns that suit your values, goals, and hopes for yourself.
Please feel to reach out and connect if you feel we might be a good fit!
