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!

Many people come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or disconnected from themselves after years of carrying too much. You may be navigating chronic stress, past experiences that still live in your body, or the pressure of holding everything together while caring for others. Therapy with me is a space to slow down, breathe, and feel supported as you begin to make sense of what your nervous system has been responding to all along. My approach is trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and rooted in both clinical experience and real-world understanding. I work with adults who are managing anxiety, burnout, complex trauma, and life transitions, especially when stress feels constant or healing feels out of reach. Together, we focus on building safety, strengthening emotional regulation, and reconnecting you to your body’s natural capacity for resilience—at a pace that honors your lived experiences. I integrate talk therapy with somatic and mindfulness-based practices to help reduce overwhelm, increase clarity, and support sustainable change. Our work is collaborative and practical, centered on tools you can use in everyday life—not just in session. Whether you’re learning how to set boundaries, process long-held experiences, or simply feel more present in your own life, therapy is a space where you don’t have to carry it alone. Healing doesn’t mean pushing harder or “fixing” yourself. It means being met with care, understanding, and respect as you learn new ways to relate to stress, your body, and your story. My role is to walk alongside you, offering guidance, information, tools, structure, and compassion as you move toward greater ease, balance, and self-trust.
