Over the years I have worked with many different types of people and while the process can be difficult at times, it is rewarding to be able to support someone in improving their well-being and confidence. I specialize in working with LGBTQIA+ clients, anxiety disorders, depression, boundary setting, interpersonal relationship concerns, and stress management. Nothing is too weird or odd to discuss in session!

I recently earned my Bachelor of Science in Psychology and Master of Social Work degrees from Southern Illinois University Edwardsville. I have experience working with adults and teens in an outpatient setting. A priority of mine is helping clients develop healthy coping mechanisms to reduce stress, depression, anxiety, and burnout. Everyone’s healing journey is unique, so I utilize a multi-dimensional approach, incorporating both Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) with a person-centered approach.

I have had a variety of experiences working with people who have had different types of problems. I have worked with individuals having problems ranging from anxiety, depression, anger management, chronic habitual problems, compulsivity, bipolar, sexual addiction, sexual offending/deviant behaviors, and psychotic issues. The value of therapy is that clients can come in with issues and with work receive some results in the form of change. It is my job to help facilitate that process. I believe in helping people work out their problems and provide them with the skill sets to help them accomplish their goals.

As a therapist, my goal is to help you recognize your strengths, develop the skills to cope, and live your life to its fullest potential, in whatever way that may look for you. For many of us, difficult emotions, thoughts, or behaviors get in the way and create roadblocks or barriers. My goal is to help you identify what keeps you feeling stuck in your life and, together, create simple solutions so that you can live a life that feels authentic and fulfilling.

When choosing a therapist it is important to consider many different perspectives. First and most importantly, is this someone that you will be comfortable working with? Education and experience are other considerations? However, when it comes right down to it, it's about connecting. All the great tools that a therapist may have will be useless if you do not connect with them. I have heard from many of my clients about negative experiences in the past with therapists and how they feel like nothing really happened.

Life can sometimes take away bits and pieces of us, and make us forget who we are. We can sometimes feel lost and alone, and lose our drive to be our best selves. Have you found yourself in that position? Feeling as if you don’t know who you are, where you belong, and have no one to listen? I create a safe, confidential, non-judgmental space to allow you to find yourself again, whether it be in your family, your work, or your marriage.

I believe that people need to be heard, and can articulate their own truth, their own path to health with compassion, empathy, and time. Clients and their families need time to tell their story, feel appreciated, to heal, and to change. I have worked to include spirituality, creativity, recovery principles from various traditions, and my knowledge of Family Systems to accompany families on their journey, so that our brief connections can have impact through these weeks, and through life. I value family input and involvement, social supports, and evidence-based methods, but more so I value my client's individual personal journey.

"A candle loses nothing by lighting another candle." - James Keller Therapy is a process in which two or more people join their resources to create change, decrease suffering and improve their lives. A therapist does not FIX a client, but works together with the client to create change. I am honored to be a part of that process. If the solution was simple, or obvious, you would have already done it. I give perspective, understanding, introduce new information, resources to cope with your situation.

Whether it's your first experience in therapy, or your first experience after a bad experience, I am here to help you see what therapy can truly be. Life creates challenges and barriers to help us understand who we truly are and who we want to become. We all want to find what it means to be our best selves. Sometimes this causes us to feel judgmental of ourselves, second guess boundaries we are putting down to better our lives, or we notice an overwhelming amount of negative self-talk towards ourselves.

Do you get caught in a rollercoaster of thoughts about what you “should” be doing with your life? Do you need help meeting deadlines for work projects? When your alarm blares in the morning, do you grumble, put your head under the covers, and wish you could sleep all day? If so, you are not alone. Life is increasingly more complicated, which makes it difficult to complete everyday tasks, not to mention trying to achieve your more aspirational goals. Therapy is a safe, non-judgmental space to be open about your past and present challenges. Therapy is about being willing to take action to create positive changes in your life.
