I earned my Bachelors in Psychology from Saint Mary's College in Notre Dame, Indiana with a minor in sociology. I then earned a Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology. I am a Certified DBT Therapist with training in art and trauma therapy. I have worked in a variety of settings, including inpatient and residential treatment, probation, and family focus. I began my first field internship at just 16 years old.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

Our first session will be getting to know one another. we will review intake and assessment forms, go over informed consent, and limits of confidentiality. We will discuss scheduling and planning. Let it be known there is a $50 fee for no show appointments and same day cancellations.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

Having worked with young professionals for the past 8 years, I've developed a tried-and-true playbook for helping you (a) identify the root cause of your challenges and (b) create a tailored plan that leads to measurable progress.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I work with children, adolescents, young adults, and older adults as a nationally certified counselor. My specializations are not limited as I thrive on continuing my education and adding tools to my box in similar ways I encourage for my clients. I feel I am able to relate to people very well & provide a calm, relaxed environment.

The nicest therapist I have had. Understanding, always there for me whenever I need it. Even checking up on me in case of a drastic reschedule. Wouldn't trade her for the world!
