Individual, couples or family therapy is available for those in the Northwest suburbs of Chicago. My office is located in Des Plaines, Illinois. Counseling is an interpersonal relationship developed with the intention of resolving particular problems in your life. I believe in short-term counseling, about 8 to 12 weeks in length. Sessions occur once a week and are for 50 minutes.Therapy has a beginning, middle and end. In the beginning, I spend time getting to know you through talk and written tests or exercises, and we set goals for our sessions. In the middle, I discover the tools to help you evolve and have you practice in session and at home to reinforce new ideas and behaviors. In the end of treatment you feel empowered to go experience the world with new ideas and behaviors. When you feel like you need a 'tune-up,' you can come back for more sessions to discover what need work. The most essential goal of each client I treat is to find more joy and balance in your daily life. Change is not easy since you have been living for so long with the old behaviors. With a commitment and dedication you can move forward steadily.
