About Me

IMG_4091I am a clinical psychologist, licensed in the State of Illinois. I have been in practice for over 10 years and provide a mix of psychotherapy, coaching, and consultation/facilitation services.

I began my practice as a psychologist after a lengthy career as a healthcare executive and consultant. My approach is based in a psycho-dynamic framework that integrates cognitive-behavioral tools for change. I’m also extensively trained in family systems which provides the framework for my interventions in both individual psychotherapy and divorce work.

My approach recognizes what I know to be true – our relationships occur inside of larger contexts, we are all a work in progress, the process is not always smooth, and sometimes we need help.

  • I work with individual adults as a Psychotherapist.
  • I work with both couples and individuals as a Divorce Coach.
  • I work with Family Law Attorneys in a consultative capacity while working with their clients as a Divorce Coach.
  • I work with business owners and leaders as a Consultant and Facilitator.
  • I work with physicians in a variety of capacities that may include some combination of all of the above.
