LCSW, 13 years of experience
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, with a Master’s in Social Work from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. I have experience working with individuals who are coping with chronic mental health symptoms, to those who are working on adjustment in their lives. I have worked in several areas including a community mental health center, a college counseling center, and an inpatient residential treatment center.
The first session is typically a get to know you meeting to identify if we are a good fit for each other. We will review brief background and presenting concerns for receiving therapy, and then hopefully set some small goals to start out with.
I have a unique ability to connect with people at all stages of life. I am direct and I hold my clients accountable to their stated goals in a therapeutic way that meets each person where they emotionally and mentally.
I have worked with populations from 18 to 60+ and I enjoy connecting with and supporting people at all stages of life. I’ve worked with individuals with adjustment issues, bipolar disorder, depression, anxiety, and self image issues.

In these settings, I’ve worked with individuals with adjustment issues, bipolar disorder, depression, anxiety, and self image issues. I would consider myself as an eclectic therapist who focuses on treatment for the individual. I do draw some strategies and techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness Based Practices, and Motivational Interviewing. I enjoy working with men, women, couples, and college students.
