Dr. Adam Shafer (Chicago, IL)
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
I do my best to listen in the service of understanding and provide thoughtful responsiveness, which I have found helps my clients connect to their inner life and with others. Using gentle honesty and compassion, I value autonomy and collaboration to help people feel less alone while finding a sense of purpose within their lives and in the world.

My expertise is working with couples to help them navigate their communication, intimacy and connection concerns.

Discover you and your partner's love languages, develop successful conflict resolution skills, and restore that " loving feeling". I have over 30 years of experience, trained at Columbia University. I offer a 20 minute complimentary consulation so you can better understand my approach. Personally I am happily married, father of four and enjoy running, baking, music, theatre, yoga, ceramics and dancing. Please feel free to reach out with any questions.

Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT)
Dr. Madelyn Satz
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Life is challenging. All of us will deal with difficulty at some point in our lives, and many of us will face repeated struggles. We have a hand in some of these troubles and others we have no control over. But we always have control over how we interpret events, how we relate to them, how we make sense of them, and what we do as a result. There is validity in whatever way we view our situation, but as a starting place, not the only place, and we can move through and beyond into a clearing of many more and better possibilities.
I have many tools and techniques and strategies to shift perspective from deeply painful to healing and expansion. Despite how vulnerable we are in life, there is also a great deal of thriving that is available to us - when we know how to harness it.
