Hello, I’m Alex.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor who provides ERP and BA therapy in Chicago and virtually in Illinois. I specialize in treating adults 18 and up who have OCD, generalized anxiety, panic attacks, and depression.

What you can expect from my style is a compassionate and direct approach where I am centered around your needs. I like to use some humor, offer a different perspective, and challenge you as needed. I have a special interest in self-compassion, and I often use practices that help you learn to use self-kindness and mindfulness in your daily life.

I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) modalities of treatment within each person’s specific treatment plan. This means we look at how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are contributing to unhelpful patterns and learn new skills to help you reach your goals.

I have trained and worked in partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient settings to develop my specialized skills, as well as gained experience in private practice and community mental health settings.
