About Abe:

I believe every person has an inner core of goodness and strength — even when anxiety, depression, trauma, or self-doubt make it hard to see. My work is about creating a space of deep emotional safety where you can be honest, explore your inner world, and reconnect with the parts of yourself that have been hidden or overwhelmed. I earned my Psy.D. from the Chicago School of Professional Psychology and have worked in private practice, community mental health, and therapeutic day school settings. I've supported adults, teens, and children through trauma, anxiety, depression, addiction, emotional regulation challenges, and identity struggles. Clients experience me as gentle, non-judgmental, and present — someone who will meet you where you are while also inviting honest, meaningful growth.

Areas of Expertise

- Trauma & PTSD - Addiction and compulsive behaviors - Anxiety & depression - Emotional regulation challenges - Sexual abuse prevention & intervention - Self-esteem, self-confidence, and finding your voice - Teens navigating emotional or behavioral struggles

How I Work

I use a holistic, evidence-based approach that honors both your inner world and your lived reality. Together, we pay attention not just to "symptoms," but to your story, your values, and the life you want to build. I draw from: - ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) — helping you relate differently to difficult thoughts and feelings while building a life aligned with your values - IFS (Internal Family Systems) — exploring your inner "parts" with compassion and curiosity, rather than judgment or shame - Client-centered, humanistic therapy — creating a warm, respectful, non-judgmental space where you set the pace and we collaborate on your goals My style is warm, honest, and deeply collaborative. I show up as a real person in the room — human, present, and authentic — while grounding our work in solid clinical training. Therapy with me is not about fixing what's wrong with you, but about understanding your experiences, honoring your courage, and helping you create a more connected, values-driven life. Therapy is more than insight — it's about experiencing yourself in a new way. Together, we create space for self-discovery, acceptance, and growth, so you can move toward a life that feels more aligned, meaningful, and truly yours.
