About

I'm the owner and therapist at Breakthru Therapy Chicago and have been practicing for over 14 years. I focus on building a deep and meaningful relationship with clients and use a strength based model to empower them to continually become better versions of themselves. I see individuals of all ages, and my specialities include anxiety, depression, ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, perfectionism, and body image/self-esteem. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Mindfulness to help clients build concrete tools for managing life’s challenges. Personally, I've also been passionate about fitness because of the improved energy, confidence, strength and sense of balance it has provided me. That's why in addition to talk therapy, I created Therapy Ryde-a cycling class that incorporates therapy techniques (mindfulness, psychoeducation, coping tools, meditation, etc) into the work out!
