About
I am a native Chicagoan interested in working with adults across various ages, backgrounds, and identities who struggle with a wide array of issues. I utilize an integrative therapeutic approach strongly grounded in psychodynamic theory. My aim is to help my clients achieve their health, career, educational, and relationship goals in the context of a safe, welcoming, and judgment-free environment that fosters trust, authenticity, and collaboration.

About
I am now doing the work I have always wanted to do. I have reentered the workforce to be a counselor to help you during a difficult period in your life. This is achieved by providing a period of supportive and empathic psychotherapy to share things you may otherwise not be comfortable disclosing. It will provide a physical and emotional space where you are listened to carefully, seen, and heard in a safe, non-judgmental way. Together we will begin to construct your unique history and story to better understand your current situation. This understanding can help to relieve mental pain, anxiety, and depression.

About
I believe healing is best symbolized by the lotus flower. In the way the lotus flower grows through mud, our inner happiness blossoms through and within our own trauma.

About
I am committed to providing a warm, collaborative, and empathetic space for each person to comfortably explore their thoughts and feelings to gain insight into their behaviors, patterns, and relational concerns. My approach is client-centered, as I believe you are the expert of your own life in the therapeutic process. Together we can work to create goals specific to your needs, understand the ways your early experiences have influenced your current beliefs and discover new ways of relating to yourself and others.

About
Grief, loss, and change challenge us to renegotiate – in our bodies, in our thoughts – earlier and similar transformations in our lives. This process stirs up emotions, thoughts, images, and bodily experiences that those around us – and often ourselves – have difficulty receiving, much less considering. In our work together, I will attend with integrity to whatever expressions of body, mind, and heart that arise; there is no rush to clinically parse and diagnose expressions fundamental to our shared human experience. We will consider dreams, bodily experiences, images and silences. In this work that requires patience of us both, and as you speak freely about whatever enters your mind, I will listen attentively as you discover and connect the elements of your own history, desires, associations, and a genuine – even transformative – sense of humor in the service of your own psychological, spiritual, and embodied personal narrative.

About
My therapeutic style is an invitation to openness: a space where we discover and welcome all that arises. I offer an honest, non-judgmental, and organic environment for forging a relationship of trust and respect. From this foundation, we can gain insight into your unique story and how your inner landscape, the immediate environments you exist in, and larger surrounding systems influence your choices and ways of living. Through this process, self-inquiry and capacity-building abound.

About
Life is a journey. My therapeutic approach is to accompany people with care and compassion on their journeys through self-discovery, exploring conscious and unconscious experiences and emotions at their own pace. Whether you’re struggling with aspects of your identity, relationships, or vocation, therapy can be a place to examine the complexities of all that you have to navigate in life. We will creatively uncover meaningful insights from your past and present to guide you on your journey. Let’s talk and see if we’re a good fit.

About
It can be difficult to address the harm either caused by us or to us by the individuals, communities, and systems that play a role in our lives. In my work, I incorporate insight, nonjudgmental observation, humor, and curiosity to create an atmosphere where patients can deepen their understanding of themselves and begin to address this harm safely. While most of my work has centered around queer and immigrant youth, I welcome any person of any age struggling with feelings of loneliness, confusion, shame, guilt, hopelessness, and fear. Together, we can engage in the deep and difficult work necessary to learn how you can lead a life with greater freedom, fluidity and fulfillment in your future.
