Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Illinois. I received my Master's Degree more than 20 years ago and have been helping women improve their mental health ever since. Are you the one who helps everyone else but feel like you’re falling apart inside? Have you gotten to a point in your life where you’re feeling like life isn’t as good as it should be? Is your romantic relationship ending and you’re kind of glad but scared? Do you worry a lot? I love working with women who want to overcome anxiety, depression, grief or trauma. I help clients become the best version of themselves. I help women who find themselves taking care of others but not themselves and want to change.

I am a licensed clinical social worker by education, and I have been a licensed clinician for over 23 years. Most recently my career has brought me to work in collaboration with GROW as a private therapist. I have been working on GROW for nearly 2 years. I also work part time as a group therapy counselor for aging adults in an intensive mental health and community outreach program. I love both occupational settings and clients with ever growing passion. We live in a fast-moving society, and it can be hard to keep up with all of our various adult life roles and responsibilities. Adults, young and mature, who are making mental health a priority in their lives are notably the most satisfied and happy individuals in this challenging society. I offer my clients a safe space to explore their experiences in this world, explore and express their feelings, get to know themselves on a deeper level, and learn skills to take control of their thoughts and emotions. I challenge my clients to intentionally practice new skills or approaches outside of our sessions. My ultimate objective is teaching my clients healthy emotion management and helping them achieve their definition of personal success and satisfaction. I have worked with a variety of clients of various adult ages and stages. Each phase of our adult life comes with unique challenges. I have extensive and varied experience working with adults in late stages of life, long past retirement, and clients who are nearing death. The last stage of life is the most challenging and requires the most assistance yet there are limited services to support the mental health needs of the current aging population. This is a serious problem, and I am on a mission to be part of the solution.

Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Illinois and Maine.

The therapeutic relationship should be collaborative, built upon both mutual respect and independence, and I hope to empower my clients to find opportunities for personal growth so that they can move forward with their goals.

I hold a Clinical Psychologist license to practice in Illinois. I completed my doctorate studies at Adler University. My professional experience in treatment spans over 25 years. I believe a person holds the ability to transform their life for the better. I find satisfaction in helping them advance on their path. The following examples show my methods for treating anxiety and depression. The evidence-based treatment method I use for anxiety focuses on individualized symptom-specific approaches that match the client’s needs and personal preferences. The combination of repetitive and irrational thoughts about perceived danger, uncertainty or failure creates distressing mental states which may manifest as negative thought, such as: "I am not good enough" or "something bad will happen" or "I will be fired if I make a mistake." I assist my clients to detect and fight their negative beliefs and thoughts. I guide clients to manage their anxiety symptoms with mindfulness breathing techniques and progressive muscle relaxation methods. With assigned homework including mindfulness exercises, I guide the client to maintain their progress and self-regulation between sessions. My depression treatment approach matches each client's symptoms, their life history, and their social environment. Depression exists on a spectrum from temporary sadness to persistent and severe Major Depressive Disorder. The maintenance of depression relies on negative thoughts such as “I am worthless” or “Nothing will ever get better.” Our focus will be to identify and modify. Through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I help clients view their depressive thoughts in a non-judgmental manner to reduce their rumination and emotional distress. By teaching problem solving skills and the practice of mindfulness helps the individual become more aware of their physical tension. Assigning homework guides the individual to improve sleep hygiene, self-care, and build effective coping strategies.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or constantly on edge—like you've lost your sense of self? You may be dealing with anxiety, depression, or the lasting effects of trauma. If you’ve been in a relationship where you felt manipulated, controlled, or abused—sometimes described as narcissistic abuse, emotional abuse, or domestic violence, you’re not alone. I specialize in helping individuals heal from trauma, anxiety, depression, and unhealthy relationship patterns by providing a safe, supportive space where you can begin to understand your experiences, rebuild your self-esteem, reclaim your identiy, and feel more grounded and in control. You may be feeling confused, emotionally drained, or questioning yourself. That's completely normal. Together, we can begin to make sense of what you've been through. Healing is possible, and you deserve to feel happy again! My goal is to help you reconnect with yourself—not just to get through each day, but to feel more confident, empowered, and like you again! You're not stuck-change is possible, and you don't have to go through it alone. I offer virtual sessions with flexible daytime and evening hours. My goal is to provide a supportive, down-to-earth, and nonjudgemental space where you can feel understood and begin to heal. If you're ready to take the next step, I'd be honored to support you on your journey!
