About

It’s exhausting to be holding onto heavy feelings, painful thoughts, damaging relationship patterns, and/or unhelpful ways of coping for so long. As a social worker for more than 10 years, I have the confidence and abilities to be a partnerIt’s exhausting to be holding onto heavy feelings, painful thoughts, damaging relationship patterns, and/or unhelpful ways of coping for so long. As a social worker for more than 10 years, I have the confidence and abilities to be a partner in lightening this load. Clients know they have an advocate in me who is passionate in helping big emotions feel more manageable. I provide a space for you to safely unpack your history, your patterns, and your concerns so that you can determine what you’d like to do, where you’d like to go, and all the possible paths to get there. I use cognitive behavioral (CBT), skills-based, and solution-oriented approaches to therapy. My aim is to help you recognize your personal power, find clarity, and gain trust in yourself. I’m available for a free 15-minute consultation call to help you determine if I’m the right therapist for you. And if you find that I am, you can let go of all the heaviness you’ve been carrying alone. Because your’e not alone. I’m here with you. I hold a license for clinical social work in both ILLINOIS and MISSOURI.
