My Approach to Helping

Do you want to feel better? I can help. You intuitively know what you need to do. I can provide proven, solution-focused techniques to help you get there. I love seeing my clients go from mere survival to actively thriving: doing what they always knew they could do. I specialize in anxiety disorders, including panic attacks, depression and post-traumatic stress disorder. I also work with children who need help adjusting to the changes that divorce, school and other events life may bring. I got my start working with kids in foster care. I learned from them how to sit with pain, acknowledge trauma and map out positive new strategies. I also work with adults healing from depression, anxiety, and abuse (physical, emotional and sexual). I have offices in Uptown and Lakeview. You can view pictures of my Lakeview offices at www.icanflourish.com. I am an in-network provider for Blue Cross/Blue Shield PPO, APS Healthcare, HFN and most Humana plans.
