I am a licensed clinical and rehabilitation therapist based in Illinois, operating a private practice. With over two decades of experience, I specialize in treating mood disorders, anxiety, family systems, and addiction or substance misuse. My primary objective is to offer support and treatment to adults, seniors, and families in need of assistance with their mental health and addiction disorders. As a biracial therapist, I am committed to assisting clients in overcoming obstacles and gaining a better understanding of themselves so that they can lead more positive lives. I am committed to using my expertise to help clients on their mental and emotional wellness journey. As a Certified Rehabilitation Counselor (CRC), I uphold this designation's requirements and ethical obligations. However, due to the enormous time commitment, I cannot provide short-term or long-term disability documentation on this platform.

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

Your appointment is tailored to you, whether a brief or thorough session. I will carefully listen to your feedback and utilize proven techniques to address your physical and social challenges. Following each session, I will evaluate your progress and pinpoint areas for improvement to better prepare for our next meeting.

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

I highly recommend maintaining a broad perspective as you work toward achieving your goals and changing your life. As your supportive companion, I will be your most prominent advocate and a source of inspiration as you focus on healing your body and mind. I am a professional committed to providing personalized care and support. Your needs will always be handled with respect and professionalism. I will use evidence-based practices and accessible resources to guide you during your transition, whether it involves reconnecting with your family, managing conflicts, returning to work after an illness, or simply exploring yourself.
