Lincolnwood, IL 60659 (Online Only)
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with extensive experience working with a diverse spectrum of individuals. As a 2nd generation Japanese immigrant, I understand how the unique identities that we have shape our experiences. In my time within education, I understood the stresses of the educator, parent and the student, and the uncertainties that families must grapple with. My experience in corporate EAP has given me the perspective of how demanding the business culture can be. Being a former Division I athlete has taught me a lot about resilience, discipline, and managing pressure - lessons I bring into my counseling practice.
