30 years of experience

Hello. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 30 years of experience working with children, teens and adults. I graduated from Loyola University of Chicago. Since Teletherapy does not lend itself to effective therapy with young children, I tend to work with parents on how best to help their troubled children. With adults, I assist clients in reaching the goals they want to achieve in order to feel more content in their daily lives. I have earned certification in Addiction Counseling. My primary experience has been with alcoholism in teens and adults.

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

In the first session I will primarily be getting to know my client and helping them to begin to form a trusting relationship. Starting therapy can be an anxiety provoking time; it takes bravery and hope.

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

I believe my greatest strength is helping clients feel comfortable opening up in sessions. I ensure clients that they can share difficult experiences and feelings at their own pace.

My treatment methods

Person-centered (Rogerian)

In working with clients, I strive to provide focused empathic listening to clients concerns. I work collaboratively to alleviate emotional pain and overcome obstacles in their life.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

When using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) I work with clients to identify and replace distorted thoughts that may limit their everyday life.

Psychodynamic

With clients who need or desire longer term therapy, I assist clients in recognizing how their past experiences influence current behavior and values.

Mindfulness-Based Therapy

When warranted, I use Mindfulness with clients to guide them in staying in the present moment so as to ease chronic or acute anxiety, worries and stress.
