Professional statement

You're stressed, overwhelmed, tense, and can't stop worrying. You found out what it's like to have what everyone else has been talking about: Anxiety. Or maybe it's something else you are seeking therapy for. Whatever obstacle you are currently facing, you deserve support and relief. You need to know that what you are going through is difficult. I am a Certified Anxiety Therapist, Trauma, Addiction, and Grief expert. I treat anxiety, panic, trauma, grief, sex therapy (for men), breakups/divorce, addiction, OCD, anger, depression, insomnia, ADHD, couples, adolescents, and people/life therapy. Check out my website for much more information!

I will look at your particular situation through a psychological lens offering you a new understanding and helpful perspective about what you are going through. Throughout therapy I will be selecting appropriate therapeutic strategies to help you persevere. And you will! Joy and happiness will return, believe it.

I spent 6 years as the mental health supervisor for a Department of Veteran Affairs and became an expert on trauma and anxiety. I also spent 3 years working in the Chicago Public School System and am well adapted with teenage issues. Lastly, I work with many current Fortune 500 companies providing therapy to their employees. Let me help you. I'm ready!


Message to clients

As a Certified Anxiety Therapist I can help you unlock a braver, more relaxed version of yourself using the "Gold Standard" treatment for anxiety, Cognitive Behavior Therapy. And as a Certified Expert in Cognitive Processing Therapy for trauma I will steer you away from the context of your trauma that leave you stuck, and more toward examining and balancing your thoughts around the trauma.

My certifications will provide you with confidence that I have additional training to help you overcome anxiety, trauma, or depression.

I will complete a comprehensive evaluation our first appointment. From there I discuss and summarize what I'm seeing in a supportive/compassionate manner. I'll discuss my recommendations and want to hear about the client's goals to create collaboration on a treatment agenda and follow up plan.
