Practices In: Naperville
Patients Seen: All Ages

My name is Nicholas (Nick), and I have a spe­cif­ic inter­est in help­ing each indi­vid­ual iden­ti­fy and man­i­fest their ide­al self through intro­spec­tion, aware­ness and sup­port­ive ther­a­py. I con­sid­er myself a cat­a­lyst of pos­i­tive change, and it is an hon­or and priv­i­lege to join each indi­vid­ual I work with on their jour­ney towards per­son­al development.
