Hi I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in the state of Illinois and am experienced providing individual, couples, family and group counseling interventions. I work with children through adults, from a variety of backgrounds and varied presenting concerns. I utilize CBT, brief solution focused models, TF-CBT, and person centered interventions. I am a member of the Illinois Counseling Association and Illinois Mental Health Counseling Association.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our first session, I would like to get to know who you are and answer any questions you may have. I would also like to begin discussing what brought you to see me and what outcomes you are looking for.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
I have a genuine desire to help others and my commitment to supporting them on their journey towards healing and personal growth.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I am interested in working with clients who have a willingness to work with me to develop a plan for their success.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I have worked over the past 5 years in a clinical setting successfully helping numerous clients over issues such as anxiety disorders, depression, phobias and PTSD using CBT techniques. CBT is used to treat a wide range of mental health issues, including anxiety disorders, mood disorders, OCD, and trauma-related disorders. I have worked with clients who struggle with perfectionism, low self-esteem and relationship difficulties.
Trauma-Focused CBT
I use Trauma-Focused Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) for clients ages 4-18 years who need help processing and coping with traumatic experiences in a safe and structured manner. I work collaboratively with clients to address symptoms of PTSD, anxiety, depression and other trauma-related issues.
Parent-Child Interaction (PCIT)
Parent Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) is used to work with children ages 2 to 7 who exhibit challenging behaviors, such as defiance, aggression, and attention difficulties. I also work with parents to address issues such as parenting stress, communication breakdowns and family conflict.
