Hello and welcome! I have been helping Illinois adults feel better for over 30 years. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I support clients seeking professional help with diverse life situations. It can be hard to reach out and so it is my goal to help clients feel comfortable about their decision to have me join them on their unique paths. I firmly believe that empathy, compassion, openness, and respect are critical to helping an individual move forward when any of the following have caused disruptions, confusion, or brought life to a screeching halt: Depression Anxiety Life Transitions Stress Trauma and Abuse Grief and Loss There is always a way through, but therapy is most effective when the client and I work together to identify strengths and search out hidden areas of hope for life enrichment. I don't believe in a "one size fits all" approach to therapy. I find cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), mindfulness, solution-focused therapy, and motivational interviewing to be useful domains to create a therapy experience that is tailored to the needs of each individual. I look forward to joining you. We'll face it together.

I have been a career clinical social worker for 40 years. I have chosen to be a counselor my entire professional, adult life, because I love it! I have done this in multiple states across America, Hawaii and Canada. I am curious and driven to expand my skills and knowledge, and be a change agent for my clients. I want my skills to be fresh and relevant in a changing social landscape. To me, there no distractions when I am engaged with my clients. I am as fully attuned to my client as I can be and want nothing more than for my client's success and resolution of their problems, and the things in their life that are painful or self-defeating. I have a Bachelor's and Masters degree in Clinical Social Work. I attended universities in Colorado. I think I can best help clients who want to do the hard work, look at themselves and with my support and guidance, make real changes in their life that move them toward their authentic selves. Clients who embrace non-judgmental feedback will be comfortable with me. Clients who have repeated self-defeating behaviors will find me patient and tolerant of their struggles. Clients who understand that humor is a tool to heal will be comfortable with me. I think mental health is something that we groom. Finally, working with a motivated client and reaching those moments of confidence and calm together is a satisfaction like no other. I believe all people who are suffering have the seeds within them to solve their own problems. Sometimes we just need a partner in that journey . Sometimes, we just want to talk to someone who will listen to us!

Psychodynamic Therapy Psychodynamic therapy focuses on self-awareness of the patient's actions and behaviors. Psychodynamic therapy is like CBT in that it works to understand how beliefs, thoughts, behavior, and emotions are interconnected. However, it focuses on the unconscious beliefs and emotions that tend to trigger the negative thoughts, emotions, and behavior, rather than conscious, automatic thoughts that occur in initial reaction to situations.

- With therapists: $100-300
