I'm a therapist-in-training based in Chicago and have been seeing clients for the past two years. If you are an adult who is feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected, I'm here to help you build clarity, self-compassion, and more fulfilling relationships.
After working in the healthcare software industry for a decade, I decided to change careers and become a therapist. I started graduate school at Northwestern University in 2022 and expect to graduate with my MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in March 2026. I have been seeing clients since 2024. I strongly believe in the power of therapy and love this work.
In my free time, I love to play piano, attend live concerts, read, and explore the city of Chicago. My mindfulness practices include journaling, meditation, yin yoga, and long walks with my dog, Riley.

In our work together, you can expect a therapy space that is warm, collaborative, affirming, and non-judgmental. I am on your side and focus on what you want to work on. I am not here to tell you how to live your life. I hope that therapy with me will help you feel more like yourself.
Send me a quick email at jake@thirdeyetherapychicago.com, and we can schedule a free 15-20 minute consultation call to see if we're a good fit to work together.
Don't stress about what to include in the email - if you want to share a bit about what's going on and why you're seeking therapy, feel free to! Otherwise, you can simply just say you'd like to get a call scheduled.
