Great to meet you!

I have a private practice near Chicago, Illinois. I've been practicing for nearly 15 years. I completed an APA-accredited pre-doctoral internship at Hamm Memorial Psychiatric Clinic, and certification at the Chicago Psychoanalytic Institute. I've trained in a variety of settings, including community mental health centers, university counseling centers, private clinics, and public hospitals.

My approach to therapy

As a psychodynamic psychologist, I offer a safe space to freely express your thoughts and feelings. We'll address underlying emotional issues, improve self-awareness, and enhance relationship skills. We'll explore your history to understand the root causes of your challenges.

What you can expect from me

Therapy can have an incredible power to shape how you see the world. You’d have someone who's on your side, guiding you through your thoughts and feelings. You can uncover new perspectives on why things are tough sometimes. It's like getting a toolkit of smarter ways to handle challenges and build stronger connections. It can be a special vantage point that lets you navigate life's twists and turns with a clearer mind, stronger spirit, and a deep love for your own journey of growth.
