Anxiety, addiction, and women's issues can make daily life feel isolating and overwhelming. You may feel worry spiraling, old coping habits returning, or life changes like pregnancy, caregiving, or relationship strain that leave you exhausted and unsure. Therapy can help you find steadiness and restore hope. These challenges often intertwine, with loss, medical stress, or betrayal fueling anxiety and substance use. Together, we will build practical strategies to reduce symptoms and reconnect you to what matters.

You may feel overwhelmed by anxiety, weighed down by depression, navigating past trauma, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve you. Maybe you’re managing family stress, substance use, or major life transitions. At the heart of it, you want to feel more steady, more in control, and more connected to yourself and the people around you.
I work with adults and adolescents facing these challenges through a client-centered, solution-focused approach. Using CBT, DBT, and trauma-informed care, I help you build emotional resilience, deepen self-understanding, and develop practical tools to manage everyday stress and difficult moments.

Nowadays everyone needs another human being to talk to. Life gets busy, everyday stress accumulates, and we are left struggling to get through our many obligations of the day. Some people experience anxiety when faced with so many obstacles and such a fast-paced, high-stress lifestyle we all live. Others become depressed as they compare themselves with "picture-perfect" lives our friends lead on social media. Others yet may find substances, such as drugs or alcohol, temporarily relieve their symptoms of depression/anxiety or whatever else they may struggle with, but create more problems in a long run.

I offer a warm, science-informed space to help you work through trauma, ADHD, grief, life transitions, body image concerns, and challenges with self-worth. I believe lasting change happens when you feel understood as a whole person — not just a set of symptoms — and that healing unfolds at the intersection of brain, body, and lived experience. In our work together, I draw from neurocounseling, mindfulness, and somatic practices to support emotional regulation, nervous system awareness, and a deeper sense of clarity and resilience.

I bring relatability, humor and heart to research-backed methods for meaningful change. With nearly 20 years of experience, I work with adults, families, and teens through difficult relationships, trauma, grief/loss, anxiety and the grind of modern life. I specialize in the unique experiences of LGBTQ folks and their loved ones. I love working with millennials adjusting to normative and unexpected changes; parents of "superfeelers"; human service workers (teachers, therapists, doctors, nurses, hairstylists) juggling demands of work and home; manual laborers; and men with panic attacks or trying therapy for the first time.

You may be navigating perfectionism, burnout, emotional overwhelm, or feeling stuck despite being successful on the outside. Maybe you’re struggling with boundaries, unresolved trauma, or major life transitions that make it hard to feel balanced or confident. You want clarity, emotional stability, and practical tools to grow in both your personal and professional life. Most of all, you want to feel aligned, capable, and in control of your path forward.

You’ve been trained to stay composed, act fast, and keep going no matter what you see. The calls come and go, but the images from the job aren’t filed away so easily. They make you irritable at home, distant in relationships, and constantly on edge – even when nothing is happening. Sleep is restless, patience is thin, and your body reacts before your mind catches up. People don’t know what it’s like to carry so much responsibility. Asking for help can feel like weakness or risk, but let’s face it: Pushing through isn’t working anymore. What you want is relief, control, and a way to feel steady without staying on constant alert.

I've been a therapist in Illinois for over 20 years and know that the decision to begin therapy takes a lot of courage. Remember when you were young and couldn't wait to grow up and make your own decisions? It turns out that's a lot more complicated than we realized, isn't it? We can so easily feel bogged down in grief, anger, anxiety, depression, relational quagmires, and difficult life decisions. As a therapist, I am committed to providing an accepting, non-judgmental space to better understand yourself and find new ways of moving forward.

First responders and others carrying trauma, PTSD, grief, or suicidal thoughts often feel unable to take part in life roles that once brought satisfaction. You may be living with intrusive memories, numbness, shame, or restless nights that make daily tasks harder. Recovery is possible, and you do not have to face this alone. Trauma, grief, and suicidal thoughts can come from line-of-duty events, sudden loss, or long-accumulated stress; they often overlap and worsen one another. Together we'll slowly process these experiences, restore safety, and rebuild your sense of purpose.

Many of my clients are navigating life with a chronic illness, obesity, or a significant medical event—and finding that the emotional weight of it is just as hard as the physical. Others are preparing for or recovering from a major medical procedure, are struggling with weight related concerns, or other lifestyle changes due to health related reasons, and want support through that process. If you've been told your symptoms are stress related, or you just need to "eat better and move more", and you're looking for someone who actually understands the mind-body connection—you're in the right place.
