My credentials include; Licensed Professional Counselor (LCPC), Certified Drug and Alcohol Counselor (CADC) and an Illinois Certified Domestic Violence Professional (ICDVP).

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 therapist dedicated to inner growth, I offer a space where we can delve into the parts of you that are intriguing and challenging. I draw from EMDR, Internal Family Systems, Attachment-Based approaches, and Mindfulness to support your journey. By integrating these methods, we'll explore the mind-body-spirit connection, and seek to understand the root causes of your struggles as opposed to just managing symptoms.

Whether it's money, cultural awareness, of therapeutic fit, there can be many barriers with finding the right therapist. One of my biggest goals as a counselor is to break down these obstacles. To meet this end, I implement an intersectional approach as I get to know my clients. Understanding what you need best allows me to provide it.
