Hannah is a board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner. She has now been working in the field of nursing for over 15 years and absolutely loves what she does! She completed her B.S. in Nursing at North Park University in Chicago in 2010. After several years as a bedside nurse in the ICU and L&D, she graduated with her MSN in Midwifery in 2021. During that time she saw a need for mental health care services in the perinatal and postpartum period, so she went back to school to pursue her post-graduate certificate as Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and graduated in January 2023.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck in your thoughts, or carrying stress that just won’t seem to let up, you’re not alone. You might look like you’re holding everything together on the outside, but inside it feels heavy, exhausting, or unclear how to move forward. Therapy can be a place where you finally feel heard — without judgment.

I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and life transitions. Many of my clients come in unsure of why they feel the way they do, or frustrated that things haven’t changed despite their efforts. Together, we’ll begin to make sense of what’s going on beneath the surface so you can feel more grounded, clear, and in control of your life.

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor, but honestly, my credentials are just the beginning. What I bring to every session is genuine care and the understanding that getting here probably wasn't simple — most people have been struggling quietly for longer than they'd like to admit. So if you're reading this, I want you to know: reaching out was brave, and you're in a safe place to grow.
