My Approach to Helping
Hello! I'm really glad you are here. By reading my profile, as well as the other profiles of talented clinicians on this site, shows you are taking a positive and brave step forward in your healing journey. I have been told by many they put off seeking help for their mental health because they aren’t sure what to expect. I like to remind all my clients they are always in control and we will go at your speed during our sessions.
In session with me, you will find that it’s more like having a conversation with a friend who will validate and normalize your experience(s) and provide empowerment as well as guidance all while teaching coping skills designed to help you. It is important to me to provide a sense of safety and comfort to all my clients.
Untreated mental health issues can create a wound that alters how we approach life. Just as you would seek physical therapy after a physical injury, it’s also necessary to seek psychotherapy to help heal old andor new emotional wounds.
Please feel free to contact me to see if I am the right therapist for you.
More Info About My Practice
I offer telehealth therapy to clients seeking therapy throughout the state of Illinois. Many of my clients prefer telehealth therapy due to the convenience as well as the ability to feel safer and more vulnerable within the comfort of their own homes. It also provides an extra layer of privacy as there is no waiting room you must walk through with the possibility of running into someone you might know.
It also provides me with the ability to have a flexible schedule. I am able to offer therapy during times in which I wouldn't be able to accommodate if I only saw clients at a brick and mortar location. And, if I'm being honest, one of my favorite things about telehealth is being able to meet your pets who sometimes join in for sessions.
If you have never given therapy through telehealth a try or are hesitant in doing so, please consider giving it a go at least for a couple of visits. if it is not for you, I'd be happy to provide you with referrals to other therapists in your area who can see you in person.
Should you have any questions or concerns regarding telehealth, I would be happy to over them with you.
