I’m committed to walking alongside my clients and their families as they navigate these difficult transitions, offering understanding and support every step of the way.

It is my pleasure and joy to use my gift passionately to educate, enlighten and empower. To help define what has you stuck, how to better relate to others and manage the continual changes life throws your way so you can become unstuck and balance your life. I am a trauma focused LCSW clinical therapist with a passionate talent to help you get through past traumas and hurts that have been holding you down to help you soar.

Welcome! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker licensed in both Illinois & California. I understand that individuals are continually adapting to their surroundings and doing their best to manage amongst systemic, environmental, and interpersonal stressors. In my therapy sessions, I offer a space for individuals to both process their experiences and explore strategies for managing stressors in a healthy way. I have extensive experience over the past 15 years supporting individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma.
