My mission is to help you achieve your personal goals by providing you with healthy, productive, meaningful strategies. My experiences in substance use counseling inspired me to educate myself further and become a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. My experience in different treatment modalities allows me to apply DBT, ACT, CPT, and CBT to assist you in promoting prolonged, positive change. As a CADC, I employ Motivational Interviewing to promote awareness, change, and education.
Many people seek therapy when anxiety, stress, or overwhelming thoughts begin to interfere with daily life, relationships, and overall well-being. I work with clients who feel stuck in cycles of worry, overthinking, avoidance, or self-doubt, and I help them build practical tools to feel more grounded and in control.
I specialize in helping people navigate anxiety and stress-related concerns, including panic symptoms, intrusive thoughts, and repetitive worry patterns. My approach is collaborative, supportive, and focused on improving daily functioning — not just reducing symptoms.
I believe that therapy works best when people feel understood, respected and safe. I have over 20 year of experience helping adults navigate trauma, depression, anxiety, identity exploration, grief/loss, life transitions and relationship challenges. Much of my career has been devoted to working with veterans and individuals who have faced difficult or traumatic experiences. I strongly believe in establishing a relationship of equals and mutual respect between therapist and client; one that leads to a guided journey of self-discovery and change.
Hello and Welcome! To summarize myself, I have been practicing psychotherapy in the Chicago area since graduating from Adler University with my Doctorate in 2014. Since then I have grown into my profession and now run a small private practice, supervise my team's coursework and proudly continue to serve my community through therapy. I am outgoing by nature and will make you feel heard and supported from the start.
If you’re looking for a therapist who quietly nods for 50 minutes, I may not be the best fit. My style is active, engaged, direct, and deeply relational.
I work with adolescents, adults, couples, and families navigating anxiety, trauma, relationship struggles, life transitions, and difficult interpersonal dynamics. Clients often describe feeling both genuinely supported and meaningfully challenged in our work together.
I believe therapy should help people gain insight, shift patterns, improve relationships, and move toward lasting change not just vent for an hour each week.











Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Finding the right therapist in Naperville starts with getting clear on what you're looking for. Consider whether you need support for a specific concern — such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship stress, or a life transition — and whether you'd prefer talk therapy, medication management, or both. Naperville has a wide range of licensed providers, including therapists (LPC, LCSW, LMFT), psychologists, and psychiatrists, each with different training and areas of focus.
Once you know what type of care you're looking for, practical factors matter too. Think about whether you'd prefer virtual or in-person sessions, what days and times work with your schedule, and whether a provider's approach and background feel like a good match. Reading a provider's bio before booking can help you feel more confident about your choice.
Therapy in the Naperville area can be expensive out of pocket, but using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to bring costs down. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a provider in Naperville who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
