Relational Psychotherapy
Karen Baumstark, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., CMHIMP, CTACC
In searching for a therapist, you are taking the first step in what could be the most important journey of your life. It is definitely possible to make important, lasting improvements in your life and levels of happiness, satisfaction, and success. Therapy is often an effective way to attain these goals. With almost 40 years of experience working as a counselor and then a psychologist, I am well-qualified to help you identify what is standing in the way of increased life satisfaction, and help you effectively work towards your goals. People often get stuck in old patterns that make them unhappy, want to change them, but don't know how. I work together with my clients to understand how old patterns in thought, feeling, and behavior got established, and then explore how best to change those patterns. I enjoy doing longer term, deeper work with clients, to create significant, meaningful, and lasting change. I often employ a holistic approach, exploring personal history, thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and relationship history and issues, as well as issues including medical history, self-care habits, and experiences of spirituality. I view the therapy relationship as a partnership, respecting the pace and timing that the client requires.

Fatma Aydin, PhD
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
It is often difficult to ask for support in the face of life’s challenges, and I appreciate you taking this step! I work with young adults and adults experiencing depression, anxiety, relationship concerns, life transitions, and identity and self-esteem concerns, among others. My goal is to create a comfortable and safe space where we work collaboratively to help you face those challenges and make the changes you desire to live a more fulfilling life. We all have vulnerabilities, and strengths we often don’t realize. I therefore work with my clients to build on their strengths and resilience, and develop self-compassion.
I recognize the impact of culture on our identities and experiences and I have enjoyed working with clients from diverse backgrounds at outpatient, community mental health, and university counseling settings. These included the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, Northwestern University, DePaul University and University of Illinois at Chicago.
I welcome clients from all walks of life and feel humbled by their willingness to invite me to be a part of their journey.

Psychologist, Psy.D.
Many women find themselves struggling in their relationships with others and themselves.
You may find yourself working so hard to please everyone else that you lose sight of what you want and need. You also may find yourself stuck in the same dating or relationship patterns that leave you feeling disconnected and unsatisfied.
As a result, you may struggle to feel fully present in your life or feel like you’re repeating past patterns in your dating life, relationships, and daily life. You may start to second guess yourself or focus on what others think instead of what you feel is right for you.
These patterns may leave you feeling “not good enough” and wondering if you’ll ever figure out how to live the life you desire.
Fortunately, you can overcome these challenges to create lasting, healthy, and fulfilling connections with yourself and others with therapy that’s designed to meet your unique needs.

Dr. Kevin Goldberg
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I am a clinical psychologist who has been in private practice for 5 years. Prior to private practice, I have worked in college counseling and community mental health centers working with individuals who present for therapy for a wide array of reasons. In addition to my private practice, I provide psychological evaluations to children who are looking for autism-specific treatment. Some areas of my interest are men's issues, anxiety, depression, and work within systems (families & couples).

Janet Scarborough Civitelli
Psychologist, Ph.D., L.P.
One of my favorite questions is, "Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?" by Mary Oliver. I view therapy as a gift to yourself to create more meaningful experiences and develop resilience to overcome life's obstacles.
