Licensed Clinical Psychologists

“Are you looking for a therapist who is engaging, warm, understanding, experienced and very knowledgeable? If so, I'm your therapist.”

About Me

If you're seeking a therapist who truly listens, I offer a warm, engaging space where you can feel understood. As a Licensed Clinical Psychologist (PsyD), I bring extensive experience and knowledge to our work together. I aim to help you navigate challenges with clarity, providing thoughtful guidance tailored to your unique needs. My approach suits those ready to explore concerns in a supportive, insightful environment, fostering meaningful personal growth.

Approach

When we meet, you'll notice a relaxed, focused rhythm that balances careful listening with clear, practical guidance to help you make sense of difficult feelings. In my Chicago office we move at a steady pace—short-term experiments, reflective feedback, and tailored tools between sessions help translate insight into change. I tend to pair curiosity with structure, naming patterns in relationships, mood, or anxiety while supporting new ways of responding. This approach often suits people ready to engage honestly and build sustainable coping.
