Great to meet you!

Hello everyone! I have been a mental health professional for over 20 years. I completed a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology at Northern Illinois University and a Master of Arts in Professional Counseling at the Illinois School of Professional Psychology/Argosy University. I have worked with and assisted a wide range from children who experienced trauma to adults who are experiencing relationship difficulties and those addressing barriers that prevent reaching their life goals.

My approach to therapy

I utilize an integrative approach that respects every part of who you are mentally, spiritually, and physically. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, grief, and difficult life adjustments such as divorce or career changes.

What you can expect from me

I like to set clear and concise goals in our first session. Goals can be as specific as "be able to consistently engage in social activities" or as general as "improve communication in personal relationships". I meet you where you are and support you as you take small steps towards achieving each identified goal.
