Specializing in working with older adolescents and young adults in the Evanston and surrounding areas since 2001. Dr Weil was trained as a generalist and therefore is able to use a wide range of theoretical orientations. She predominantly uses Cognitive- Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in her work with her clients.
CBT is an umbrella term that employs the most effective cognitive (thinking) and behavioral (action) interventions that target maladaptive patterns that are maintaining difficulties. In the initial sessions, Dr. Weil will work with you to set goals and identify what is holding you back from achieving a more fulfilling, content life.

Services
I am a very collaborative therapist who enjoys helping clients to identify their goals for treatment and making direct suggestions as to how to achieve those changes. I understand that it takes tremendous courage to engage in the therapeutic process and do my best to be direct, yet I empathetically challenge my clients to make necessary changes in their lives.
I am paneled with BCBS PPO and Aetna Student Health through Northwestern University. If you have an alternate insurance, services will be paid on a fee-for-service basis and a Superbill will be provided, per the client's request. Please contact your insurance company prior to our first meeting to confirm coverage for either in-network benefits or out-of-network reimbursement rates.
