About

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in State of Illinois with 25 years of experience. I work with clients across the lifespan regarding a wide range of concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma, acceptance, ADHD, and relationship issues, and am a strong ally of the LGBTQ+ community. I believe therapy is a client – centered time to focus on your personal concerns, needs, and goals, and am honored to partner with you in the process of personal growth and healing.

I provide a strengths-based approach, and utilize a variety of techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, play therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, and supportive listening. I strive to develop a supportive therapeutic relationship with each individual, to grow self-awareness, acceptance and love as well as coping strategies and tools to improve your well-being, and to develop heightened emotional regulation and distress tolerance.
