ADHD is my superpower and I enjoy helping clients make sense of the chaotic mind. If you are constantly overthinking before bed or feeling paralyzed by your daily to-do list, we will work together to break that cycle. I understand past experiences, often unidentified traumas, shape how we show up in present interactions. Life transitions can be difficult, and it is my pleasure to assist you whether you are changing careers, expanding or downsizing in family roles, or just trying to decide what's next. Life stressors are inevitable, but they don't have to be anxiety-filled experiences.
When emotional challenges begin affecting your relationships, confidence, or daily life, it can be difficult to know where to start. You may be feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, stress, or the impact of difficult experiences. For children and adolescents, these struggles may show up through behavioral changes, emotional outbursts, school difficulties, or challenges connecting with others. Therapy offers a supportive space to better understand what is happening beneath the surface and begin creating meaningful change.
If you’ve been feeling anxious, down, overwhelmed by stress, or stuck in a hard transition, you’re not alone. I work with people 16 and up who want support around anxiety, depression, life stressors, and eating disorders. My goal is to help you feel understood while we work toward steady, meaningful change together.
As a licensed therapist with over three decades of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals through life's complex challenges. My practice centers on helping clients navigate stress, anxiety, family dynamics, grief, and significant life transitions. I have worked with a vast population: healthcare, residential, mental health and the unhoused.
“Only those who sow seeds of change can hope to grow and reap a harvest.”

I work with children and teens ages 3-17, as well as parents and caregivers who are seeking support, guidance, and practical strategies to strengthen family relationships, work through family conflicts and improve daily functioning. My goal is to help build the necessary skills to strengthen relationships and homeostasis within family structures and the individual.
I specialize in working with neurodivergent children, adolescents, and families including those with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), ADHD, Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA), social-communication challenges, anxiety, emotional regulation difficulties, and behavioral challenges. I also specialize in working with high conflict family dynamics which include parent-child relationships, divorce (for families that are both in and/or out of the family court system), sibling rivalry, and multicultural child rearing.

I am a clinically licensed and board certified therapist specializing in attachment based therapy. I view your struggles through an attachment-based, trauma-informed lens. Early relationships shape the ways we experience ourselves, connect with others, and respond to closeness, conflict, and vulnerability. While these patterns often develop as adaptive responses to our early environments, they can persist into adulthood long after they are no longer serving us. Therapy provides an opportunity to understand these patterns with curiosity rather than judgment and to begin creating new ways of relating.
I believe that psychotherapy is a special kind of health care. It can help you better understand yourself and others, work with and expand limits in your life, and help you better cope with feelings and challenges. I use many strategies to surface and explore deeper motivations flowing beneath our experience, with a special emphasis on our emotions. I am an LCSW therapist with 3+ years of therapy in Illinois. I am a male and Arab-identifying former teacher, and I seek to build a relationship of safety and trust with each person I work with.
