Working from a strengths based perspective, I provide psychotherapy to individuals, couples, families and groups. In a supportive setting, I strive to create a safe space where clients can focus on personal growth, self-integration, and positive change. Particular areas of interest and expertise include depression, anxiety, couples counseling, grief and loss, sexuality/identity and the challenges impacting the LGBT community. In addition, I work with a number of artists and performing artists who are seeking to increase their self-awareness, unblock their creativity and reach their full artistic potential.

Most symptoms are adaptive; there are usually good reasons for why people operate in ways that may not make sense to themselves or others. I help my clients deepen their understanding of their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.

Over the course of treatment, this collaborative process can lead to positive change and empower individuals to make choices more in line with their identified goals.

I have offices in Lincoln Park/Lakeview and downtown for your convenience, both quite accessible to public transportation.
