ABOUT ME:
My clinical philosophy is based in the concept the most problems can be understood and solved, that each person can be happy, comfortable with themselves, and that while life will always have its ups and down, suffering is not necessary.
I believe that success, not suffering, builds character and leads to feeling good. My desire is to help you feel good.
People, families and relationships get better when they are understood, appreciated and validated. Problems and painful situations improve or resolve when one gains the skills to handle them.
I work with a wide range of peope from all walks of life. My patients include other clinicians, doctors, lawyers, teachers, artists, white-and blue-collar workers. Some clients identify with alternative lifestyles, some are very religious, some are highly successful in business, while others feel they have floundered for way too long. Many are just facing a highly stressful situation. All of them, however, want change and want to be happier, mo
STYLE
IN THE THERAPY SESSION: I believe that each individual is unique and thus, treatment has to be individually tailored to meet each person's needs. For this reason, I obtained advanced training in a wide variety of treatment approaches.
Therapy is a collaborative process. You and I will gain an understanding of your concerns and together we will create a plan to address those concerns.
I am sensitive to the fact that most people coming into therapy and uncomfortable and sometimes feel that they don't know how to "do therapy." My job is to make you feel comfortable while at the same time, directly addressing the problems that bring you to treatment.
You can schedule an appointment by calling me at 773-856-5163. If I am in session, you will hear a voice mail that states only the phone number and asks you to leave a message. I will return your call within 24 hours.

HEALTH PLAN PARTICIPATION:
My policy is that you are responsible for payment at the time services are rendered. In order to protect your confidentiality, I encourage patients to pay for services without using insurance because once an insurance claim is filed, your information is retained in a databank and ultimately impacts your ability to obtain health and life insurance in the future. That being said, I will sign your insurance form should you choose to use it. I am a Blue Cross/Blue Sheild provider. I do not work with HMO's.
