How Well Do You Really Know Yourself?
Are you feeling lonely, sad, or unfulfilled? Do you often feel misunderstood or like something crucial is missing in your life or relationships? Is it easy for you to give love but hard to receive it in return?
Discover a More Connected and Vitalized You!
Life can be incredibly busy, making it easy to lose touch with who you are. Have you taken the time to truly connect with yourself lately?
Think about how you treat yourself. Do you show yourself the same compassion and care you offer to your family, friends, and partner? Are you your biggest supporter or your harshest critic?
As an experienced therapist, I’m here to help you discover your true self and achieve what you want in life. My passion lies in guiding you to treat yourself with the love and compassion you deserve but might find hard to accept.
Breaking Patterns and Finding Support
Together, we’ll explore the patterns in your life and relationships, identifying and interrupting those that no longer serve you. Our goal is to get you unstuck, so you can find love and support within yourself and in your relationships.
My passion is helping you discover who you are and get what you want in life.
I specialize in working with adults facing social and relationship challenges. Whether you’re healing from a breakup, finding yourself repeatedly in unfulfilling relationships, dealing with old wounds, or simply feeling disappointed and unhappy, I’m here to help.
More About Me
I have a special interest and extensive experience helping individuals and couples focus on their relationships. Whether you’re navigating communication issues, seeking deeper intimacy, or overcoming past hurts, I’m here to support my clients in creating stronger, more connected partnerships.
Additionally, I am experienced in working with Highly Sensitive Persons (HSPs). If you often feel overwhelmed by sensory input or emotions, we can develop strategies to help you thrive and embrace your sensitivity as a strength.
Are you ready to get “unstuck” and find more meaning, purpose, happiness, and fulfillment in your life? I look forward to partnering with you on your journey of self-love and healing.
Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.
– Rumi
Together, we will identify and heal the subconscious barriers that are holding you back. Once these barriers are dismantled, you’ll be able to move forward with a renewed sense of connection and vitality.
I’m excited to help you take the steps towards the life you desire and deserve. If you’re ready to begin this transformative journey, contact me today. Let’s work together to create a life where you feel more connected, vitalized, and fulfilled.
I am currently accepting new clients. I look forward to talking with you, please contact me and schedule an appointment. My practice is limited to telehealth, and I am open to working with anyone in the state of Illinois. Sessions are conducted via a secure HIPAA compliant video call platform. Contact me to get started.
