Seeking the support of a therapist is a positive step toward actively addressing and resolving emotions and situations that are troubling you.  Many of my clients start therapy because they are feeling anxious or depressed, burdened by relationship struggles, or stressed by life’s demands.  Others use the therapy experience as a way to maximize personal happiness and explore self-improvement.

No matter what you may be feeling, please know that you do have the potential to change your behavior patterns, the way you think about challenges, how you respond in relationships, and how you care for yourself.  It’s my honor to guide people on this process. Together we can identify your goals for our work together, form potential solutions, and discover your personal strengths.

The biggest predictor of success in therapy is whether you feel comfortable with your therapist. My style is supportive and respectful, but also practical and action-oriented. I realize that starting therapy can feel intimidating and I place the highest priority on creating a caring, safe, and confidential environment for you to discuss your thoughts and feelings.

Please explore my website and read the following Chicago Tribune article to learn more about my practice and approach.  I invite you to contact me for a confidential, free phone consultation to get a beginning sense of what I offer as a therapist.

Thank you for stopping by.
