About me

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 10 years of professional work experience. In addition to a Master of Social Work from the University of Missouri-Columbia (MU), I have a Graduate Certificate (specialty) in Military Social Work (also from MU). I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, relationship issues, and in helping military service personnel, and their families, better manage Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), and the stress of military life. I am also a Certified Behavioral Health Consultant, qualified to provide help to clients whose physical health is being negatively impacted by their behavior/s and/or mental health. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy takes courage! I am proud of you for getting started!

I have never felt closer or more comfortable to a therapist in my life that I have with Ila. She is so compassionate and we were such an amazing fit together. I will miss her, but will definitely stay in touch with her. She is so very special and such a blessing.

Incredibly thankful such a wonderful, attentive person chose this line of work. I manage a lot of serious anxiety and have pretty rough adhd and needed a solid place to start after losing my insurance due to divorce. I found Ila and from day one we got back to work on a lot of big changes and perspectives. The mixture of information, conversation and genuine care I have received has been life changing. I just needed an ear and received so much more and could not be more thankful.

I have been working with Ila for several weeks right now, but from our first meeting I feel that she understood the root of what I was going through. I have seen other therapists before and no one has asked me such insightful questions that made me feel like I was understood. With her help we are slowly beginning to take a part the things I am struggling with and making them more manageable.

Ila is a beautiful soul, she is respectful, supportive and has already helped me a lot in a short period of time. You can tell she has experience as a therapist and knows how to pinpoint your current struggle and how to go from there.
