About me
I seek to empower my clients to engage the world through their unique strengths. I work with individuals and couples who are struggling with emotional well being, life transitions, and relationships. In working together, I utilize a person-centered, integrative and collaborative approach to therapy, with the understanding that each person is distinctive and individual. I have experience with many issues ranging from mild to severe. I have worked in private practice, community mental health, and residential settings. My goal is to meet clients where they are and to create a comfortable, safe space for growth, exploration and self-healing.
My education includes a Bachelor’s from DePaul University, a Masters from Loyola University Graduate School of Business in Human Resource Management, and a Masters from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology in Counseling Psychology. I hold a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) licensure in the State of Illinois and have over 10 years of clinical experience. I am very compassionate, kind and open to working with any one that has interest in helping themselves.

This is the first therapist that I like. I finally found someone I trust completely. Gary is thoughtful and asks the right questions. I feel like talking with him has helped more than any other time in therapy.

Gary has been amazing. Truly a safe space. This was my first time every doing therapy of any sort. And boy was I nervous and scared. All it took was 5 minutes and I started to feel comfortable. 100% non judgmental active listener who will help open your mind more.

Having seen previous therapists, I appreciate Gary's directness. I find his tendency to hold me accountable is refreshing and allows me to be honest with myself.
