I’ve always been curious about people’s journeys – their dreams, their trials, and everything in between. For many years, I found myself engaged in the world of finance, working closely with clients from all walks of life. Yet, there was a common thread that caught my attention – the pivotal role that mental health played in their lives.

I work in a collaborative, active way to explore issues and identify ways to more fully lead the life you want. My goal is always to personalize our work together to focus on what you want to accomplish in therapy.

At other times the work is about resolving longstanding issues that have interfered with life for a long time. Whatever the issues are, I am committed to working in a flexible, creative, non-judgmental and compassionate way so you can make the changes you want.

Are you struggling with constantly feeling as if you are not good enough? You need to change yourself to “fit in,” or be successful? In the world that we live in, there is so much pressure around needing to push ourselves, to change our body, to be overanalyzing food and numbers on the scale. It can be really difficult to figure out how to navigate around the influences from other individuals, and living the life that you actually want to live. Trying to break free from a weight-obsessed world is really challenging. I can help walk alongside you on this journey of healing, and learning who your authentic self really is.

For the past 20 years, I’ve been helping people make sense of their inner world and their relationships—without jargon, judgment, or the expectation that they “should have figured this out by now.” My style is supportive, straightforward, and collaborative.

Change isn’t instant, but with clarity and insight, it becomes sustainable—one thoughtful step at a time.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by addiction, eating disorders, or trauma? Like Eeyore from Winnie the Pooh, does life often seem grey and dreary? Many of us find ways to cope with pain and trauma, sometimes turning to risky behaviors such as substance abuse or over or underusing processes such as food as an escape. Amid this mayhem, thriving seems impossible, and survival becomes the goal. Perhaps you're struggling with a sense of loneliness and isolation, or your relationships are suffering. The weight of these issues can feel unbearable, and it might seem like there's no way out. But there is hope.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Illinois, Ohio and Iowa with 30 yrs of experience working with adults, couples and teens.

Our identities shape the way we move through the world, influencing our relationships,
experiences, and sense of self. Healing begins when we are seen, heard, and affirmed for who we truly are.
As a therapist, I strive to create an inclusive, affirming space where you can explore your story without fear of judgment. My approach is rooted in cultural humility, anti-oppression, and neurodiversity-affirming care. Growing up in a multicultural household, I understand how intersecting identities, family dynamics, and societal expectations can shape our mental health and self-perception.

I understand how mental health can make or break future success. If we don’t take care of our mental health, how can we possibly achieve our own personal goals at our highest potential? When it comes to styles of mental health therapy, there is no cookie-cutter approach for any given individual. I build rapport and provide an inviting, calm, and peaceful environment where my clients can feel safe and secure to share feelings, thoughts, and experiences.

Change and struggle are universal inevitabilities, and everyone deserves guidance and relief. Whether you are facing everyday stressors or significant life obstacles, you are not alone. I believe everything we do serves a function, and it is important to gain understanding of those that might not be healthy or helpful. My training and clinical experience with court-involved individuals and families guides my work with clients spanning the toddler years to middle adulthood.

Do you ever feel like you don't matter. That you aren't enough? Do these thoughts feel overwhelming and out of control? If this is you, know that you are not alone.

My goal is to help each client identify and challenge unhelpful thinking patterns that lead to problematic behaviors, non-judgmentally process through emotions, and ultimately help to create a life that is aligned with their values.
