Life is stressful, but you don't need to navigate that stress alone. I work with women, teens, and young adults who are navigating life transitions or stress related to relationships, career, pregnancy, parenting, medical or health challenges, school, aging family, or adjusting to the United States after moving from another country. I help my clients learn and implement skills to cope with the anxiety or sadness that often comes during transitions and to feel confident in themselves and in moving forward in their lives. I provide all therapy virtually.

Like many modern therapists, I use a combination of approaches to suit my client’s unique needs. My background is in psychodynamic psychotherapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). I believe that we’re each doing the best that we can with the tools that we currently possess and that each of us deserves compassion and support as we continue making our way through life. I will embark on this journey with you, offering a space free of judgment and some evidenced-based techniques to support your growth.

I enjoy working with people open to reflecting on their issues and sincere about wanting to grow and change. We all at times find that we want to be more objective in our relationships and in our reactions to the challenges that confront us. I find satisfaction in helping people foster their capacity to overcome frustration, sadness, anxiety and fear. Often painful experiences in life cause us to respond in subjective ways, which only adds to and reinforces our frustration and alienation. I hope to build a trusting relationship with you that will enable you to feel more free spirited.

I believe everyone can benefit from counseling because we all have various times in our life when we need someone to listen, support and validate our feelings. Often we can be so close to an issue or concern, and another perspective opens a new window to our world.

I understand it takes courage to seek counseling and takes time to build trust.

Chicago DBT Institute at The Center for Mindfulness and Behavior Therapy - DBT-Linehan Board of Certification, Certified Program(tm)- is a specialty clinic that serves teens and adults who are exhibiting self-endangering behaviors and/or emerging or established borderline personality traits, such as depression, anxiety, eating disorders, self-harm, impulsivity, post-traumatic stress, and/or emotional instability. Our scientifically-based interventions incorporate skills to help patients recognize and face their emotions skillfully and overcome the self-destructive coping behaviors that have plagued their lives.

I provide a supportive, empathic, and hopeful environment. I encourage my clients to be open-minded and honest while approaching their sensitive personal challenges, guiding them in understanding why past efforts at addressing these challenges may have been ineffective. We (me and the client) then develop alternative goal-directed and client-centered solutions. I recognize that successful therapy requires collaborative goal setting. Your participation in setting goals allows for a more willing exploration of the thoughts, feelings, and experiences that guide both current and past choices. This engenders the type of change that is both true and sustainable. Lasting change rarely happens quickly, but is a process that often begins through gaining perspective on past choices. Such understanding often provides insight and wisdom for future choices, resulting in positive transformations
