My background is in working with mood disorders, anxiety disorders, including OCD, eating disorders, as well as stress management. I specialize in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) as well as Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT).

I work at Linden Oaks Behavioral Health in Naperville (suburb of Chicago) as a clinical therapist serving a wide array of mental health challenges, including depression, anxiety, and OCD. Currently, I run a limited private practice in Naperville.

My role is to increase your self-awareness to identify what you value, what is currently working in your life, and what is getting in the way of you living the life you want to live. I view therapy as a partnership wherein my role is to help you to move towards the life you want to live based on your values
