I’m a licensed clinical social worker with many years of experience as a hospital and dialysis social worker. For much of my career I worked in dialysis, supporting patients through chronic illness, medical uncertainty, and the daily realities of life on treatment. Before that I worked on hospital units doing discharge planning and connecting people to community resources. In both settings I served as an advocate, mediator, and change agent — and I’ve always offered talk therapy alongside practical supports. I specialize in working with adults through the elderly. My clinical interests include generalized anxiety and social anxiety, relationship issues, life transitions and losses common in older adulthood, grief and bereavement, and building self-esteem. I enjoy partnering with clients who want to make real, sustainable changes in their lives. My therapeutic toolbox includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, humanistic approaches, mindfulness, and traditional talk therapy. I treat the whole person: mental health symptoms are important, but so are lifestyle, movement, breathing, and social connection. In sessions we’ll explore practical coping skills and evidence-based strategies, and I’ll also encourage healthy routines such as walking, swimming or water aerobics, yoga and stretching, breathing and mindfulness practices, soothing music (ocean or rain sounds), and nutrition and socialization — all of which support emotional healing and goal achievement. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can be heard, understood, and challenged kindly. My style is warm, collaborative, and strength-based. I’ll be your partner and coach — cheering you on, helping you build skills, and celebrating every step forward. If you’re ready to take the first step, contact me — I’ll congratulate you for making this important choice today and I’ll be with you tomorrow as we work toward your goals.

Is BetterHelp right for me?
One of the potentially rewarding aspects of working with a therapist is the validation and active listening they can provide. Your friends and loved ones may also be available to listen, but you may feel that they may lack the skills to provide objective guidance. Counselors are trained to respond to various concerns, symptoms, and mental health conditions.
Therapists in your city can support you toward a healthier emotional state, regardless of your mental health, life concerns, or healing needs. While supporting individuals in developing healthier habits, another good benefit of therapy in Ellsworth is having an understanding, safe space with a non-judgmental party who can support you through challenging experiences.
Many people have sensitive topics that they may feel ashamed to discuss with their friends or partner. A therapist can help you confront these concerns and open up through unique methods of support. There are also many types of therapy, where you may find you can express yourself through creativity instead of words with a psychotherapist.
With a lot of people in IL, therapists may be booked out with clients.

Should I find a Ellsworth therapist or psychologist for therapy if I feel fine?
Some simply don't feel the need to see a psychologist. However, some people may avoid attending therapy due to stigma or preconceived notions of what it might entail.

You can discuss grief, relationship concerns, stress, or life changes and ask for general feedback. A Ellsworth licensed clinical social worker may help you gain power over your life and emotions while you navigate day-to-day experiences.
Gaining a new perspective on yourself through various therapies might allow you to improve your self-esteem, work through relationships, and gain a better sense of your mental health goals. The success you may find with a counselor can be dependent on your process.
People may also attend therapy for specific motives, such as bullying, an autism diagnosis, a desire to learn mindfulness meditation, personality concerns, trouble with office workers, specific phobias, and many other principles that a counselor can help with.
