Licensed Clinical Social Worker


Theo has been in private practice since 1998. She received her MSW from Jane Addams, University of Illinois in Chicago. She has advanced training in EMDR. Theo works with individuals and couples, and provides clinical consultation to other therapists.

Theo approaches her clients with non-judgmental curiosity and warmth that makes her easy to talk with, even regarding issues that might be experienced as shameful. She is sensitive to the effects of stigma and oppression on people's lives. She is attuned to the effects of childhood trauma, stress, and outsider identity on one's life, and how lack of resolution of these can interfere with leading a full and satisfying life. She also helps people resolve blocks impeding their creativity.
