I am a LCSW in the state of Illinois and have been practicing for 10 years. I help people struggling with grief, depression and anxiety to work through these difficult emotions and live with more hope. I use a combination of CBT, Grief Therapy, and Supportive Therapy in my work with clients. My goal is for my clients to always feel heard and supported.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session, I like to get a sense of your background and why you wanted to start therapy. Knowing some information about your life and past experiences can help me to support you in the difficulties you are facing currently. This allows me to support you in future sessions.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I have a great deal of experience with the challenges of the healthcare system and the ways that these challenges can impact emotional health.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I use a combination of methods to help clients explore and process their feelings and learn techniques to cope with difficult emotions. Everyone is different and responds to treatment methods differently. I work with my clients to find what works for them.
Grief Therapy
I believe that grief shows up in many areas in our lives. Grief therapy techniques can be helpful in a variety of situations that involve any type of loss - whether the loss is physical or emotional.
