Hello! I am a LCSW from Illinois who has worked in a variety of settings in the Chicagoland area (community mental health, residential, and hospital). I graduated from Dominican University in 2012 and have been in practice since. I enjoy working with people of all ages, to help them learn to overcome obstacles and make the most of their life!

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

I would like to get a general feel for your life and what is bringing you in, and want you hope to gain from our sessions.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

Being non-judgmental. You are allowed to make mistakes, it's about what you learn from them.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I am best fit to provide help for those who want to do something different, who want to change for the better.

My treatment methods

Mindfulness-Based Therapy

My experience has been a combination of CBT and looking to reframe situations in a person's life, and DBT skills to manage our own reactions to stress.
