Starting therapy can feel vulnerable, especially when you’ve felt misunderstood or unsupported in the past. My goal is to create a space where you can show up as you are, without judgment, and move at a pace that feels comfortable.
I work with individuals navigating trauma, identity exploration, neurodivergence, addiction and recovery, personality disorders, schizophrenia, and the impact of sexual assault. My approach is relational and trauma-informed, with a strong focus on autonomy and compassion. I believe that healing happens when people feel safe enough to explore their experiences openly.
I also have extensive experience working with neurodivergent individuals, including those with ADHD and autism. I strive to create an affirming and respectful space where clients feel empowered and understood, while building skills that support meaningful and lasting change.
I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Social Work from Carthage College and my Master’s degree in Social Work from Loyola University Chicago. My work is grounded in meeting people where they are and supporting them in building a path forward that feels authentic and sustainable.
