Therapists in Kendall County, IL

Are you feeling overwhelmed, burdened, and stressed out? You are not alone. Each of us experiences problems in our lives that we cannot seem to resolve alone.

I provide a judgement free place to find your way & figure it out. Commitment to my clients begins with a belief in the ability of individuals to advocate for themselves & choose their own path. You decide how you want to live your life. Our instincts, emotions & feelings are a gift; they are the natural barometer for navigating our lives. Often we misinterpret or fear those emotions & fall into a holding pattern as to how to move forward. We all get stuck. Let me help you move forward. I have extensive experience working with children (ages 3-17), families and adults.

Licensed in Texas and Illinois. As we navigate our unique journey in life, sometimes additional support is needed along the way.

Examining the core of your presenting symptoms can be challenging but you are worth the life changing experience. I work with couples, families, & individuals including adults and adolescents ages 14+.
