With the many transitions that life brings can come many challenges. It can be difficult to navigate these challenges alone and reaching out for support is a significant step in working towards healing. My goal is to help you navigate your healing journey using compassion, empathy, and creativity. I have experience working with clients experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma, and challenges related to life transitions.

As a therapist I believe the most important thing I can emphasize in the relationship is autonomy. Addressing the shortcomings of the profession in the past I seek to create a collaborative environment where you as the client understand where our work is going and that it can be addressed at any time. I have an interest working with clients dealing with trauma, clients from the LGBTQ population (in particular the transgender and transgender non-binary experience) and couples. I hope to provide clarity and a greater understanding of your emotional world and what options you have to become the person you wish to be.

Finding a therapist can feel overwhelming. You probably sense that it’s finally time to reach out for help, but feel unsure of where to begin. Perhaps you feel uncertain if there is anyone out there who can understand, let alone help. I believe that the strength of the therapeutic relationship directly impacts an individual’s capacity for change. So my first priority is to cultivate a safe, open, and compassionate relationship with each of my clients. My style of therapy is supportive, lively, and direct. My goal is to help you learn to trust yourself and feel less weighed down by self doubt.

I approach my work with warmth, acceptance, and genuine care. I believe in the power of humor and personal vulnerability to create a comfortable and supportive environment. I understand that therapy can initially feel intimidating, which is why I approach the process thoughtfully helping to make the process feel normal, safe, and approachable. I will help guide you through this process and take the lead. My approach is client-centered and adaptable. I meet each individual where they are, tailoring my care to their unique needs. Whether in inpatient or private practice settings, I've gained valuable insights into therapeutic styles.

I am a licensed clinical therapist in Illinois with over 10 years of experience providing therapy services. My goal for when we first meet is provide a safe and comfortable space to explore what has been causing distress in your life. In our sessions we will work together to determine the root of the issue, assess what has or has not been working, and collaborate on how to move past whatever is holding you back.

You are taking the first step in feeling better by exploring the idea of therapy. Work, family, relationships, societal pressure: it's a lot to manage, especially alone. Perhaps you feel like life is increasingly challenging and you no longer feel like you. While you may be experiencing pain and anguish, things can feel better. Just as the body can heal from physical pain, the mind can heal from emotional pain. Working with a therapist is a unique collaborative relationship built on trust and respect that helps you examine some of the difficult parts of life, whether in the past or present.

Our perspective is that everyone's life has a story, and therapy is a way to identify and change that story to fit with your goals and values. Seeking therapy can be difficult, and we enjoy supporting people in finding their narrative and re-writing it the way they desire to fit their needs. As strength-based and client-centered therapists, we believe that meeting people where they are enables them to feel at ease and supported in the process. Helping others identify their innate strengths and using them is a large part of my philosophy. We are an anti racist practice and pride ourselves on being able to serve BIPOC populations.

Another day of feeling overwhelmed with anxiety. Another day of dealing with past events impacting current realities. Sometimes it feels as if you are feeling your way in the dark. The shame and guilt you face make you feel like you are drowning in the ocean. While I enjoy working with different types of people, my ideal client is someone who is able to accept me as a support throughout their journey. Together we will develop a healthy plan that works best for them, rather than looking for total direction from me.

Shame and stigma can permeate every aspect of our lives and make pleasure, love and work challenging, painful and sometimes impossible. Shame and stigma often mask something special and remarkable about a person; talents, identities, ways of living or loving that are unappreciated, misunderstood and even repudiated. Deviance and difference should not be requisites for pain and failure; those qualities can be empowering and liberating. Often, it is a dominant culture that pulls the veil of shame over our eyes and hearts. Our stories and ourselves are worthy of dignity and care, regardless of what we learn from the dominant discourse.
