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.

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.

Are you experiencing persistent feelings of unhappiness, anger, fear, or a sense of being stuck? No matter what you do, you feel like you are never good enough. I specialize in working with individuals that identify as neurodivergent, those struggling with body image, and new parents or those experiencing parenting transitions. I believe that everyone has the ability within themselves to heal and find empowerment in their own lives.

My speciality is working with clients who are navigating depression, anxiety, grief, adjustment, interpersonal relationships, and exploring their identity. I value my ability to aid people in processing their lived experiences and navigating how to manage the harder parts of life more effectively. I believe people want to be understood ... we want to have a space where we can share the scary or uncomfortable parts of ourselves in order to understand ourselves better. I believe people need a space to process the harder parts of life to not feel so alone and to work toward living more happily. I hope I can provide you that space.

When we experience distress in our lives, whether in the form of depression, from a traumatic experience, in response to a loss, or as a result of struggles with addiction - we are challenged by our minds and bodies to seek understanding, connection and healing. I have found that when we look at these challenges and face them together, we can find relief.

I became a social worker because I understand what it’s like to have no purpose or direction in life and hope for things to improve without knowing where to begin. I understand it in a way that no amount of schooling could ever teach. I know how the brain can fundamentally disrupt every other aspect of your body and how your emotions can distort things—emotions you didn’t even know you had. Your emotions can make it impossible to see, think, and do anything clearly. The way they can make you hurt from your head down to your fingertips, a dull, throbbing, constant pain that never goes away.

I have worked with a myriad of different clients, and the thing I enjoy most is helping them to achieve their goals and live the life that they are striving for. We will work to identify your specific goals and them problem solve what skills you are lacking to achieve said goals. I enjoy working with clients going through major life transitions, along with addiction recovery and trauma survivors. My tag line, if you will, is "Broken Crayons Still Color". We are all recovering from various stressors and life circumstances, but amidst it all, there is always hope.

Do you find yourself stuck in patterns of people-pleasing, addictive or self-destructive behaviors, or negative thought loops? Struggle with feeling hopeless, worthless, furious, anxious, or just numb? Do you ever wonder WHY you feel the way that you feel? Together we can explore how your past informs your present, how your nervous system has been primed to react, and the messages that operate beneath the surface. I seek to help my clients feel deeply understood and worthy, but don't take myself too seriously and am well-acquainted with the funny side of life.

It's my passion to help people sort through their difficulties and move forward with clarity and peace of mind amid struggles. Our mental landscape profoundly shapes mood and behaviors. Sometimes we feel stuck, and need someone to listen or help us identify solutions to our problems.
