About me
I seek to empower my clients to engage the world through their unique strengths. I work with individuals and couples who are struggling with emotional well being, life transitions, and relationships. In working together, I utilize a person-centered, integrative and collaborative approach to therapy, with the understanding that each person is distinctive and individual. I have experience with many issues ranging from mild to severe. I have worked in private practice, community mental health, and residential settings. My goal is to meet clients where they are and to create a comfortable, safe space for growth, exploration and self-healing.
My education includes a Bachelor’s from DePaul University, a Masters from Loyola University Graduate School of Business in Human Resource Management, and a Masters from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology in Counseling Psychology. I hold a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) licensure in the State of Illinois and have over 10 years of clinical experience. I am very compassionate, kind and open to working with any one that has interest in helping themselves.

Though I’ve seen Gary only a handful of times so far. I can safely say he’s made me feel the most comfortable and able to be vulnerable that I’ve ever felt with a therapist. I feel respected and heard in a way that no other therapist has made me feel.

Gary has really helped me through some dark periods. He has lent an ear and input to me on multiple challenging occassions and is always actively there when messaging and on call. I really appreciate his friendly and professional nature, as well as his empathy, and calmness about him. I could not thank him enough.
