As a licensed therapist in Illinois, I bring over two decades of compassionate clinical experience supporting individuals through complex life challenges. My practice specializes in addressing depression, anxiety, stress management, and life transitions with a deep commitment to understanding each client's unique journey.
I focus on helping clients navigate diverse experiences including social anxiety, trauma recovery, relationship difficulties, mood disorders, and personal growth. My approach centers on creating a supportive environment where individuals can explore their emotions, develop resilient coping strategies, and rediscover their inner strength.
My therapeutic work spans a wide range of populations and concerns, with particular expertise in supporting older adults, young professionals, veterans, first responders, and individuals managing chronic health conditions. I am dedicated to providing empathetic, personalized care that honors each person's individual path toward healing and self-understanding.

Pat is very fun, and I'm glad to connect with her on different topics. Her modality is very solution based, so that may not be what everyone is looking for in their therapist. But I really appreciate her input on my journals and messages, and I look forward to continuing services with her to manage my bipolar II symptoms.
