As a therapist, I value creating an open and non-judgmental space to learn with individuals about their authentic experiences. In efforts to help someone live a life most fulfilling to them - I believe that compassionately discovering who you are, connecting to emotions, and navigating the complexities of life is something you don’t have to do alone.

The late comedian Harris Wittels once said, "we are all wonderful and horrible and figuring it out"; this statement is the basis for my approach to therapy. Before I decided to pursue a career in psychotherapy, I worked in comedy - rising in the administrative ranks at the famed Second City theater in Chicago. Working in the arts taught me compassion, creativity, the power of collaboration, and cultivated in me the ability to improvise. I'm excited to meet you where you are and hope to have the honor of walking alongside you wherever you lead. You are deserving of peace and joy - we can find them together.

Crises, transitions, and old patterns that no longer serve you can be daunting when you try to navigate them alone. I work to support you and/or family in discovering what you need and want in your life, by offering a kind, nonjudgmental space to attend to all the parts of you that you want to explore. While I work with a wide range of issues in my practice with individuals and families, I specialize in helping those experiencing anxiety, difficult situations or transitions in their lives, as well as those with ongoing mental health diagnoses.

Being human is not always easy and life can be quite difficult. There may be times when you worry about the future, feel angry or sad; guilty or ashamed; feel upset about the emotional pain you are experiencing; or feel overwhelmed, anxious and stressed. Therapy can help by providing you with the tools and insights to help you navigate through the most difficult of life's experiences. I believe our most challenging times in life can also be our greatest opportunity for change and growth-therapy is the place to nurture that process.

I've been in practice for over 10 years and have seen patients from three-ninety years old. Many transitions occur throughout the lifespan and during these transitions; some can be more difficult than expected and need examining for better understanding and practices. To do this I facilitate an environment free of judgement and help my patients understand their feelings and thoughts, as well as how to improve their behaviors to better their lives and futures. I enjoy my work and very much and strive to help people find their own voice, achieve their greatest accomplishments and successes in life, love, and work.

As a psychotherapist & social researcher, I have 20+ years experience working with adolescents, adults, couples, and families experiencing a broad range of challenges & issues. We all live together in the same society, but the complex factors that effect each of us individually can create challenges that make it hard to succeed, live up to our potential & lead happy, satisfying lives. There are tools, that we can use to deal with these challenges. Learning how to access our inner strength and power is something each of us are capable of - and this empowerment is the key to resolving confusion, pain & suffering.

An important aspect of any therapeutic relationship is the rapport and ease you have in discussing your issues and concerns with your therapist.
I believe the right fit between the client and therapist is in large part a function of the flexibility in approach and ways of intervening with you as an individual client.
I see the therapeutic relationship as being a collaborative partnership that is outcome focused in addressing your issues and concerns.
The emphasis is on doing what is most effective in moving you toward your desired outcomes in the least amount of time possible.

You are lying in your bed at 3:00am and you're not sure what went wrong or how things in your life got so derailed. It seems like there is no end to your worrying, stress and fear. This isn’t how you thought life would unfold for you. You can't connect the dots to how you got here, and you certainly can't envision where to go next for things to feel better. Or maybe you're part of a couple, and you don’t recognize the person lying next to you anymore, and you don’t know what happened in your relationship: you think you loved this person - you know you did love this person - but you have no idea how things got so disconnected.

Though often painful, problems have a way of pushing us towards growth. We may wonder why we can’t find a partner, why our work feels so unsatisfying, why we compulsively seek the comfort of alcohol or food, or why our lives feel so meaningless. We may feel tired of replaying the past. Importantly, we may simply feel overwhelmed living in a disconnected society where many people are marginalized. While internal work can be productive, it’s important to examine and understand the role of our environment.
