Effective therapy helps you move away from feelings of distress and struggle and toward a happier, more balanced life. My greatest pleasure as a therapist is guiding clients toward identifying their strengths and re-awakening to life's possibilities. My style is supportive and respectful, but also practical and action-oriented. Together we explore what you want from therapy and customize an approach that's best for you. Clients see me as collaborative, genuine, and committed to their health and happiness. I hold clinical social work licenses in Illinois, Michigan and Minnesota.
My practice focuses mainly on recovery from trauma, and a range of anxiety/depressive concerns. I am certified in Trauma Informed Stabilization Treatment (TIST) and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing), a clinically proven treatment for post traumatic stress disorder. I also frequently utilize cognitive-behavioral and mindfulness approaches.
If you are thinking of giving therapy a try, I invite you to call or email me to ask questions, discuss your concerns, and get a sense of whether I might be the right therapeutic partner for you.
