WHAT TO EXPECT AT YOUR VISIT
Guiding You On the Path of Self-Healing
Perhaps you're down or anxious - maybe you're unsure about the future of a relationship, or just feel that you aren't living the life you were meant to lead. Whatever your needs may be, I am here to offer support. As I discussed above, I see therapy as a collaborative process. During initial sessions we will discuss the main issue bringing you to treatment and develop goals. As we continue, I will follow your lead in relation to topics for discussion each session. I will ask clarifying questions related to your goals to make you think and provide feedback and ideas for how to move forward and improve.
Therapy is a process of growth and self-discovery, and in my sessions I promote behavioral transformation by encouraging a positive outlook and the adoption of new attitudes and reactions. I have the tools and professional experience to help you get back on track.
SERVICES I OFFER
Individual Therapy
Individual sessions are a great option for those looking to share their feelings and experiences without feeling judged or worried how loved ones will react. Through individual meetings, we can process stressful events and brainstorm better ways to cope. Individuals of all ages can benefit from this modality.
Couples Therapy
Couples often seek out counseling once major conflict and disconnection have developed. However, couples do not need to wait for crisis to seek out assistance. Couples sessions are great opportunities to bring in a third party to provide insight into relationship and communication patterns and to work towards improvement.
Family Therapy/ Consultation
Family therapy is a great option for families looking to build communication or support one family member in coping with a stressful situation. Family sessions are a great opportunity to discuss difficult topics, identify issues in communication, and build healthier familial relationships.
GET TO KNOW ME
A Licensed Professional Here to Guide You
Born and raised in Wisconsin, I earned my undergraduate degree from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. I relocated to Chicago to earn my doctorate in clinical psychology, and loved the people and experiences living here provides! Since graduating, I have worked in an outpatient mental health center, school setting, and private practice. I have provided individual, couples, and family therapy to individuals of all ages and from many backgrounds. I also have extensive experience completing psychological and neuropsychological assessments for children, adolescents, and adults (through age 101). I am now working to establish my own practice in the Chicago area, and am excited to begin this journey with you!
Life can get difficult, and sometimes a little help from a professional Psychologist can make things better. As a therapist, I feel my role is to listen, empathize, provide feedback and suggestions, and support you through your own growth process. I want to hear what you have to say and help you reach the goals you have set. Therapy sessions will be tailored to you, the client, because you are unique and techniques that work for someone else may not work for you. Therapy is a collaborative process, and I am excited to help you work through your stressors and to become the person you want to be!
