Welcome! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Illinois. I earned my Master of Social Work degree at Aurora University in 2000. I've been a practicing therapist in hospitals, outpatient clinics, residential treatment, and court/jail. I have extensive experience working with those who are coping with depression, anxiety, grief/loss, and trauma. Relationship problems and addictive behaviors are also a specialty of mine.
My treatment approach involves tailoring your needs and goals with evidence-based treatments. However, the most important aspect of counseling by far is the connection and comfort you feel with the person you choose to witness your personal struggles. I believe we can all grow through challenging experiences by increasing our self-awareness. Sometimes another person, one who isn't in our immediate circle, can offer a perspective or additional support, that give us movement on a difficult situation when we feel stuck. It would be my privilege to walk with you on your journey. We all want to be able to share our personal truths and be accepted and understood. I believe it's very important to be open-minded and non-judgmental when someone shares their personal story or experiences with me. Our relationship with our self and others has worth and is useful to explore in counseling.
I look forward to working with you!

Katrina keeps up with me when I dont want to keep up with me.
She has a way of putting my troubles into perspective so I'm not so hard on myself. She's very nice and lets me joke around when I'm uncomfortable

Katrina is amazing. She has helped me so much in a very short period of time! She is very empathic and understanding. She has a personal style that comes across as easy going and fun but always professional. I was very hesitant about therapy, let alone virtual, but she has changed my mind completely!
