I am an Illinois and Wisconsin Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) who has extensive experience working with individuals, groups, couples, and families. I earned my Master's Degree in Clinical Psychology from Benedictine University, where the prominent perspective was person-centered therapy. I have worked with several different client populations including couples with marriage difficulties, adults struggling with depression, anxiety, and other life adjustment issues, physically and sexually abused adolescents and adults, adolescents with mental health issues related to school, home, adjustment, or mental illness, and even adolescents and adults on the verge of suicide. In working with these populations, I have gained vast experience in family dynamics and feel it is important to focus on the whole system, especially when a child is involved. I have also been trained in DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy) and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), and I feel many adults and adolescents could greatly benefit from learning these skills. God is our ultimate counselor and His word is referenced and prayed from as part of the healing process.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Our first session together will be a get-to-know-you session. I will listen as you describe the challenges you are facing and then we'll talk about the goals you have for therapy so I will be more able to help you in future sessions.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Being a therapist for more than 20 years has allowed me the opportunity to help people discover healthy solutions for a large variety of challenges. I am strong in my Christian faith and feel that God shows up consistently in my sessions to guide these solutions.
