As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for the past 14 years, I have found that every person possesses the ability to change. I graduated with my masters degree from Loyola University Chicago where I specialized in working with older adults. I have since expanded my expertise to include all ages of adults who are experiencing trauma, depression, anxiety, or difficult life changes.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP) who is deeply committed to helping individuals heal, grow and reconnect with themselves. I specialize in working with clients navigating trauma, anxiety and overwhelming life experiences, and I provide a safe, supportive, and affirming space where you can feel heard without judgement.

I proudly offer an LGBTQ+ affirming environment and welcome individuals of all identities and backgrounds. I understand that experience related to identity, safety, and belonging can deeply impact mental health and I strive to create a space where you can show up fully as yourself.

With my background in Elementary Education and School Counseling, in addition to my License in Mental Health Counseling, I have worked with children, adolescents, families, and adults experiencing behavioral and mental health challenges in various stages of life, particularly as a result of anxiety, depression, and traumatic events.

You might feel alone in this struggle but you don’t have to be. My work, which has been shaped by my own experiences of suffering and clinical training, is more than a career, it is a calling. I help people move from surviving to living with intention, calm, and confidence.

I have an undergraduate degree in psychology, and a master’s in clinical social work. I specialize in treating OCD and other anxiety disorders with Exposure and Response Prevention Therapy. I use this therapy because I’ve seen it help people begin living the lives that they want to live without fear being the driving force.

I also have a background in working with parents who are experiencing challenging situations. Whenever I work with children, I work with the caregivers as well in order to improve family unity and create lasting change.

I am very trauma-aware in that I recognize the role that past experiences have had in shaping who we are today. My philosophy is that these experiences don’t have to hold us back, but that healing is a journey to be embraced.

I'm a licensed clinical mental health therapist that specializes in healing depression, anxiety, PTSD, disruptive behaviors, childhood trauma and various personality disorders. I have extensive experience with adolescent and family therapy but also work with wide range of age groups.
