As a licensed social worker from the University of Chicago Crown Family School of Social Work, I have a wide range of experience in different counseling therapies. I primarily work with DBT and ACT approaches within a psychotherapy setting. My life experience with multiple alternative communities has inspired me to counsel those within such communities who might hesitate to engage in therapy. A key focus of mine is on those who identify more with their online lives than their day-to-day ones.

Do you feel overwhelmed by day-to-day living? Is there something weighing heavily on your mind that is affecting your ability to function as well as you want to? Being able to talk about those feelings with someone can be a huge relief. I believe that establishing a good relationship between the therapist and the client is critical to the healing process. Using a non-judgmental approach, I work with my clients to explore and identify what is the root cause of the distress and together, we set goals for solutions to managing or overcoming the source of the issue.
