Welcome to my blog that I utilize to share my thoughts as a Therapist. I am currently in practice as a Clinical Associate at Orchard Wellness in Skokie, IL.
I firmly believe that every individual is endowed with immense potential and innate strength. My foremost objective is to empower my clients, guide them to recognize their inherent worth, help them find purpose in their lives, and unveil the untapped potential shaping their unique selves. Whether assisting a parent of a traumatized child, supporting a teenager grappling with anxiety, helping a young adult trapped in depression, or aiding a couple seeking reconnection, I believe positive transformation is attainable.
My therapeutic approach begins with discerning each client’s unique strengths and pinpointing the obstacles they face, be they physical, neurological, emotional, situational, or relational. I work with my clients to craft a tailored treatment plan utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) – a pragmatic, goal-driven, and compassionate approach.
In addition to my clinical work, I have the pleasure of providing leadership development and creative problem-solving for NCSY, an international non-profit youth organization. I also have over a decade of experience working in K-12 educational settings as a school therapist, teacher, principal, and head of school. This background enriches my work with young clients facing academic, social, and emotional challenges as well as adults navigating corporate and organizational challenges.
