**Current waitlist for new patients** I’ve provided psychotherapy and clinical supervision services in the Chicagoland area since 2001, working with adolescents, adults, and couples. While I work with a broad range of issues, I have a particular interest and expertise in the areas of depression and anxiety, relationships, men’s issues, self-esteem, adolescent development, attachment, blocks to creativity, and the intersection of psychoanalysis, psychology, and spirituality. I believe that most people struggle and “do what they do” because they are in some form of emotional pain, and that the psychotherapeutic process can result in greater freedom, strength, and vitality, leading to a more satisfying and connected life. In addition to my work as a therapist, I am a classically trained musician and certified educator, with extensive experience working with adolescents, college-age and graduate students. I am a core faculty member at The Institute for Clinical Social Work of Chicago where I provide clinical supervision to doctoral students and teach Introduction to Psychodynamic Psychotherapy in the Masters Program. I've also taught in the Graduate Counseling Program at Stetson University, served as Assistant Professor in the Graduate Counseling Program at St. Xavier University in Chicago, was a Faculty and Internship Supervisor in the Masters of Mental Health Counseling Program at Viterbo University.
