For more than two decades I’ve created a warm and inviting setting to help children, adolescents, young adults, families and couples tackle a range of issues. Using a combination of traditional and progressive therapies, I work closely with my clients to restore a true sense of healing and balance.
And since no two people are alike, I draw on a range of integrative techniques, from art and play therapy, to mindfulness, EMDR, and brain science.
My techniques are holistic and customized to each client, providing a very different experience to traditional talk therapy. Our creative, free-flowing session frees clients, and helps address a range of issues, from parenting to bereavement, divorce, and sibling rivalry, to anxiety and depression, OCD, Sensory Integration disorder, and ADHD.
My areas of service include: Chicago, Evanston, Wilmette, Winnetka, Glencoe, Glenview, Northfield, Northbrook, Niles, Buffalo Grove, Highland Park, Deerfield, Morton Grove, Skokie, Lake Bluff, Lake Forest and Waukegan, Illinois.
It’s never too early or too late to begin therapy. Healing paths can start at any point in your life. My mission is to steer my clients to emotional health by building their sense-of-self and confidence in how they connect to those around them. One of my greatest pleasures is a client who is ready to leave the practice using the tools that I offer. Launching you into the world is my goal. And being there, whenever you need me, is one of my main points of difference.
Whether it has been a year or several since we have met, once we connect, I offer an ongoing resource, for you and your family — by email, by phone, or in person. In the same way that you call on the family physician for medical support, I am always available, even for the briefest check-in, to help you on the journey to healing.
