Request a Free Consultation

A free 15-minute phone consultation is a chance to discuss your goals, ask questions, and see whether we may be a good fit.

Use the form below to share your availability and a brief reason for reaching out. I will follow up to arrange a time. Please avoid including sensitive clinical details.

Email Sam · Call (773) 217-9701

In-person and telehealth appointments are available; please confirm the appointment location when scheduling.

What would be helpful to talk about?

You can start with a concern such as work pressure, repeated worry, a difficult relationship, or the feeling that you keep expecting more from yourself. A sentence or two is enough for the initial request.

During the consultation, you can ask how I work, discuss what you hope to change, and talk through the practical details of scheduling. You can also let me know if you have tried therapy before and want something different from the experience.
