Therapists in Tinley Park, IL

When feeling anxious, depressed, or having relational challenges we often feel stuck. Together we will connect the patterns in your life and use evidence-based tools to move you toward your best outcome. I will ensure you have a respectful, safe, and supportive environment in which you feel empowered. I value each person as a unique individual with distinct needs. My diverse experiences and my multicultural background facilitate my ability to relate to the challenges associated with the intersectionality of identity.

As a Marriage and Family therapist, I have extensive experience in working with individuals, couples, and families. I approach therapy from a strength-based, holistic, and highly collaborative model, welcoming diversity of race, culture, spirituality, gender, and orientation. Areas of specialty include mood disorders, anxiety disorders, relational distress and family conflict, life-transition, parenting and co-parenting, and grief and loss. Whether one is exploring gender and sex identity, cultural and ethnic identity, or seeking to translate diverse experiences within a partnership, I will support and guide them through the process

I try to provide a therapeutic relationship that meets your unique needs. My goal is to allow the individual to truly explore themselves without the fear of being judged. I value meeting people "where they are" as this is your personal journey. I find this helps us remain open, and create a path to improving relationships.

My approach to therapy is holistic and incorporates the connection of the mind, body and emotions. Clients have described me as warm, supportive, non-judgmental and calm. My goal is to help better manage your thoughts, feelings, and to help you feel happier and healthier. I welcome the opportunity to join your journey to healing and recovery.

You might look for individual therapy because you experience obstacles that happen again and again; you are trying to figure out who you are and what you want in life. You might be looking for couples therapy because you feel disconnected from your partner or have difficulty communicating; you fight or have difficulty with being intimate. You might be looking for family therapy because you don’t know how to connect with your kids; there is conflict in your family and you don’t know how to resolve it. You might be a person of color, immigrant or second generation and struggle with issues mentioned above.

Life is constantly changing and sometimes challenges arise as a result of this change. This often leads to experiencing feelings and thoughts that add further distress to us. As a therapist I aim to collaborate with you to create a trusting relationship to understand, explore, and better deal with these challenges. I invest in getting to know you and your experiences, understating you within your cultural context, and supporting you in reaching your potentials.
