I understand how life can be challenging, yet also fulfilling and joyful from the inside out. We are all worthy of love and belonging, and we will work together to find the best fit. None of us are alone in any this, and it may be surprising to see how we all help each other at the same time. In addition, each one of us has our own struggles. We also have our own strengths to overcome these barriers and make life worth living! I respect that you know yourself the best, and I look forward to helping you tap into your own strengths get to where you want to be, one piece at a time. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and live in Northern Illinois. I have helped people get in the right state of mind to enjoy life since my first job at age 15 years old. I have a Bachelor's Degree in Recreation and a Masters Degree in Social Work. Even more, I have many experiences in both areas and combine them to brighten life for everyone involved. My goal is to make the most out of each day, starting now.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
During our first session, I enjoy learning more about you and what brought you to therapy. We will get to know each other a bit, and develop the best way we may work together. We will also outline a design to help you begin reaching your goals and increased well-being.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
A good number of my strengths come from my own personal experiences and learning from others. I understand how difficult life can be, and I also appreciate how truly happy and content it can be as well. I genuinely care about people and have a strong passion for helping others brighten their lives. I enjoy what makes each person a unique individual. It is enlightening to work with others to help them find their strengths and motivation to increase their quality of life. I accept people for who they are, where they've been, and where they want to go. When we all work together, life's journey can be a lot brighter. It is my personal and professional goal to work with others to help them find the healthiest state of mind to enjoy life to the fullest extent each day.
