We often seek therapy yearning for connection and understanding. I provide a safe space where we work together as a team to help you process your experiences, validate the emotions attached to these experiences, and discover your own strengths and capacity for coping through life’s challenges. We as humans are inherently resilient even when things like shame, trauma, isolation, addiction, depression, and anxiety try to disconnect us from ourselves and others. We will work together to find compassion for yourself in restoring this connection. Please go to our website to fill out our Google Form if you want to schedule an appointment!
As a social worker, I am keenly aware that we are impacted by our environments such as school, work, and home but also our community, culture, and society at large. I look forward to walking beside you in this journey of discovering your own resiliency, strength, and self-compassion.
I work out of both our Elmhurst and Glen Ellyn, IL locations where we can sit in the office or we can walk and talk on the IL Prairie Path. I also offer teletherapy if you prefer. Reach out and I look forward to starting this journey together! Please go to our website to fill out our Google Form if you want to schedule an appointment!
