I strive to create a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel truly seen and heard. I am passionate about working with children, adolescents, and individuals, as they navigate life’s challenges and move toward healing from within. My approach is collaborative and tailored to each person’s unique needs, goals, and pace. Drawing from a range of evidence-based practices—including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and trauma-informed care—I integrate techniques that best support the whole person. I believe in the power of the therapeutic relationship and approach each client with authenticity, compassion, and respect. My goal is to help clients deepen their self-awareness, identify and build on their strengths, and foster a stronger sense of self-efficacy. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). I earned my Master’s degree in Forensic Psychology from The Chicago School and completed my clinical training at a substance use treatment center. I have experience supporting individuals working through addiction, anxiety, depression, and trauma. Above all, I meet my clients where they are—honoring their autonomy and readiness for change—while gently encouraging growth and resilience along the way.
