About

Offers In-Person and Telehealth Appointments

You are competent. Responsible. High-functioning. And you are tired. From the outside, your life works. You meet expectations. You show up. You handle what needs to be handled. But inside, something feels misaligned. Rest feels uncomfortable. Slowing down feels unsafe. You may feel resentful, disconnected, or quietly exhausted — even though you are successful. I specialize in working with high-achieving adults who are ready to stop over-functioning and start living in alignment. As a licensed clinician, I provide in-person therapy in Illinois and telehealth services in Illinois, New Jersey, and Florida. Many clients discover subtle patterns of self-abandonment — years of putting their needs aside to maintain success, stability, or approval. These patterns often begin as strengths. Over time, however, they distance you from yourself. My approach is steady, relational, and depth-oriented. Therapy is not rushed or surface-level. You do not have to perform progress or protect me from your emotions. We move at a pace that honors both courage and capacity. If this resonates, I invite you to schedule a free 15-minute consultation today by calling (630) 749-9044.

Under this law, health care providers are required to give patients who do not have insurance or who are not using insurance, an estimate of the expected charges for medical services, which includes psychotherapy services. As a patient, you have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency healthcare services, which includes psychotherapy services. You can ask your health care provider and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an appointment for service, or at any time while you are in treatment. Please note, if you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. However, please make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate. To find out more information or to ask questions about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, or how to dispute a bill, review your Good Faith Estimate and/or visit https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises.
