About

It's often impossible to predict what life has in store for us next, and we may find ourselves facing unexpected challenges which can leave us feeling overwhelmed and unsure of what to do next. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Illinois for more than 22 years, I have experience assisting clients with life challenges including anxiety, depression, substance use, life stage transitions, grief, sexual identity, relationship issues, communication problems, etc. I work closely with clients to create an open and safe environment, where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and take the necessary steps toward change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.
