Has your life taken an unexpected detour? Maybe it's a chaotic relationship, unrelating anxiety or navigating difficult family dynamics. Whatever your struggles might be, fighting these battles on your own can be difficult, painful and sometimes overwhelming. However, there is an incredible amount of power in a strong therapeutic relationship where you can process life with someone who desires to fully understand you with a lens of compassion and empathy.

Life is full of transitions. They can be extremely difficult. It can be easy to feel overwhelmed, discouraged and like nothing will improve. Transition can be even more overwhelming when it feels like you are going through it alone and don't have support. I utilize a client-centered, strengths based approach, and provide a compassionate and accepting environment.

I operate from a strength-based perspective. I believe that people have innate strengths and skills that can be accessed and applied in times of challenges and transitions. It is my belief that the process of therapy/counseling involves the discovery or rediscovery of one's core sense of self in the world. I do not ascribe to the cookie cutter method of treatment. In other words, the methods and interventions are tailored to fit the individual rather than the other way around. Therapy is seen as a collaborative process

The human experience is difficult for all of us and can leave us with deep wounds. The reassuring truth is that wounds can heal. In my practice of trauma-focused psychotherapy, I guide my clients toward reclaiming a sense of empowerment, placing them in the driver's seat of their own lives. Embracing each person's unique journey, I offer a safe space for deep listening while employing an eclectic blend of therapeutic approaches. Throughout our collaborative process, my clients learn to find freedom from destructive cycles of behavior and develop a foundational sense of self that they can trust, value, and like.

The choice to reach out for help is often a difficult choice to make. But, when our life's journey presents us with challenges and obstacles, it can be difficult to face this journey alone. I have experience with, and enjoy being a genuine source of support for teens and young adults. My clients are individuals in need of clinical or emotional support, who need assistance with identifying and working through life's stressors. My clients are also individuals who may not need clinical support, but want to learn skills and strategies, which promote their well-being and assist in maximizing their personal and professional potential.

I believe therapy is a collaborative process between the client and therapist. I strive to provide a safe and non-judgmental environment. I enjoy utilizing a person-centered approach to sessions and meeting the client where they are. The client knows their narrative best, I find it important to consider lived experiences, cultural influences, as well as other intersecting factors into my understanding of your worldview. I enjoy celebrating client’s goals, sitting with at times difficult feelings, and embarking on this journey together.

I have provided psychotherapy in my private practice since 2016 after 25 years working at the University of Illinois, McKinley Health Center, Mental Health Department. At McKinley I was a member of a clinical team that included three Psychiatrists, two Psychologists and two Clinical Social Workers. Many of my referrals have come from Physicians who I coordinate care with as we seek to add non-medicine coping skills for anxiety and mood management. While medications can be helpful, I believe it is important to address situational factors and build coping skills to more fully address my client's problems.
