Outpatient COUNSELor
Counseling can help you change your life. I became a counselor because I experienced firsthand how counseling can help you become the person you want to be. I start from the position that every person I serve can make change, and it is my role to listen and support them through their process.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Illinois. I have experience working with children, adolescents, and adults to address trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, and ADHD. I am a play therapist at heart and find that clients of all ages can benefit from play, art expression, and sand tray–even tabletop roleplaying games! I work in talk therapy from a person-centered perspective, helping clients develop insight, understanding, and practical skills to improve their daily life. I have training and experience using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and mindfulness techniques.
