I provide group supervision to mental health professionals needing to complete their clinical hours, obtain outside support, or gain consultation. I am experienced in providing supervision for those who work with children, adolescents, and young adults involving challenging life events, such as transitions, racial identity, adulting, imposter syndrome, self-esteem, anxiety, depression, and past traumatic moments. My approach is reflective and is meant to bring out a person’s strengths. My aim is that clinicians can be properly supported in their work and that they can grow adequately as a clinician.

In 2008, I was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkins lymphoma. After the better part of a year, I went into remission, and I realized I wanted to work with other cancer fighters. I went back to school and earned my Master in Social Work from Loyola University Chicago. Since my career change, I’ve worked in refugee resettlement, cancer treatment, hospice care, acute inpatient treatment, outpatient behavioral health, and community mental health. My goal is to foster an environment where clients feel supported, validated, and empowered.
