10 years of experience
Virtual

I am licensed in Illinois with 10 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with trauma and abuse, motivation, self esteem, and confidence, depression, & coping with life changes. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.

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

They will learn that they have hope and that their healing journey is on its way.

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

I can relate to many clients as I am a survivor of Trauma.

My treatment methods

Person-centered (Rogerian)

Person-centered care supports people to develop the knowledge, skills and confidence they need to more effectively manage and make informed decisions about their own health and health care. It is coordinated and tailored to the needs of the individual.

Trauma Informed Care

A trauma-informed approach is used to provide effective care that acknowledges a patient's life experiences and avoids re-traumatization. It can improve patient engagement, treatment adherence, and health outcomes, as well as provider and staff wellness.
