Online therapy in IL, MA, MI, & NY
From Survival to Connection. Start Healing Here.
Here, at Adaptive Wellness, I believe that you already have what you need within you to live the life that you want. Together we will explore ways you can adapt your current lifestyle and release your past, so you can walk into tomorrow feeling fully yourself.
What’s it like to work with me?
I’m honest, empathetic, and I notice things. I’m going to call you on your B.S. but you might not realize it, because we’re going to do it gently. Showing up in therapy is vulnerable, and we’re going to explore the hard stuff, not battle it. Working together, we will find ways for you to feel empowered, strong, and grounded.
I have specialized training in Somatic EMDR and Integrative Mental Health. I really love talking about the nervous system, and we will likely also talk about how different parts of you are showing up. You don’t have to know what you’re doing when you’re coming to therapy, I’m here to walk with you every step of the way.
-
I think play is important, yes, even for adults
I’m going to ask you to do some eccentric things, and I bet we will find fresh ways of being in the novelty.
We’re likely going to laugh, even when things feel difficult.
-
And if the direction we’re taking doesn’t feel like it’s working, we’ve got plenty of others to try
-
and find joy, peace, and safety in their bodies
We’re not just going to talk about your thoughts and how to change them, we’re going to talk about your body, how and why it's showing up the way that it is, and how you can shift and grow.

When all the doctors you’ve seen can’t seem to find anything wrong, and are feeling baffled. Maybe they’ve told you “you should see a therapist” or maybe they’ve just implied “Its all in your head.” I’m here to help you navigate the impacts of knowing you don’t feel right without having answers. You are not crazy. Lets work together to understand the language of your body and what its trying to communicate to you.

You’ve worked really hard to get to where you are, you look around and are proud of your hard work, yet are realizing this is not exactly what you had dreamed life might look like. You’re working long hours at an emotionally draining job and are coming home, crashing on the couch and hoping there are left overs you can heat up for dinner, or ordering out yet again. You’re looking down the road and not wanting the next 10 years to look like the last 10 years. You wonder: could I just run away from this all and travel the world? or at least do something that feels meaningful?
-
You’ve lived some life and figured out how to function fairly well despite it all. But now, as you are gaining space from whats happened in life, you are realizing that reminders of the things you’ve experienced are showing up in your body at unexpected times in unexpected ways. You keep telling your self “I’ve made peace with that” but are wondering now if maybe you’ve just been ignoring it.
You're likely a good fit for my practice if:
You have a gut feeling something needs to change, even if you can't fully articulate it yet.
Others have dismissed or minimized your experience, but you know it's real.
You're tired of performing a version of yourself that no longer fits.
You want to rebuild your life from a place of authenticity, not just survival.
You're ready to trust yourself again, even though it feels scary.
You value depth over quick fixes.
You're willing to slow down and listen to what your body and intuition are telling you.
You want a therapist who will meet you where you are without judgment or pressure.
