As I write this, I am astonished to say that I am coming up on a decade of being a therapist. I am so very passionate about helping people address their experiences, thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that may be holding them back from becoming the best version of themselves. I obtained my Bachelor's degree in Psychology at DePaul University, and I still recommend books I've read from courses that I took back then. I then moved to the East Coast to obtain my Master's in Counseling, Mental Health & Wellness from New York University. Please allow me to assist you on your path of growth.

Are you struggling to stay grounded in the present? It can be easy to catch ourselves overwhelmed with moments of discomfort from the past or find ourselves worried about what the future may bring. Sometimes it can feel impossible to take notice of the world around us when we are so consumed by emotions, memories, or distractions that take us away from the “here and now”. While the though of change may bring up worries of added work or pressure, learning how to identify when we are inundated with “there-and-then” thoughts can help bring us back to our present self.
