Therapists in Wheaton, IL

Therapy can be a place of healing, discovery, and overcoming challenges.

At first therapy can seem intimidating as processing through our struggles can be; however it is important to recognize that we all need some support sometimes, and professionals like myself are here to help! As a Licensed Professional Counselor I have worked with various populations including adolescents, couples, adults, groups, and families. Typically some of the issues that I address in therapy but are not limited to include depression, anxiety, PTSD, eating disorders, ADHD, addiction, and relationship difficulties. In my office, I strive to provide a safe and encouraging environment to help walk you through this process.

Words Matter. Our sense of self and our hope in life stems from the words we hear and from the people that mean the most to us. You may have experienced hurt in a close relationship, and that hurt may not only make it harder to trust others, but it may even lead you to question yourself. What was it about me that made them do that? Or you may have absorbed the messaging all your life that something about you, how you look or who you are, makes you “less than”. Those critical thoughts take their toll on your body, your mind, and your spirit and can leave you feeling hopeless, powerless, and alone.

When others ask how you're doing, do you reply with a simple “fine” or “I can’t complain,” when in fact you are actually not fine as you have been going through some shit? Whether you're experiencing life changes such as relationship trouble, depression, anxiety, struggling to make friends, finding motivation, or discovering what makes you happy, it can really blow when you feel alone in that. These experiences begin to impact how you start to think and talk to yourself and suddenly, without any warning, you're drowning in a vicious cycle and just want to scream for help! Maybe you feel more alone than ever. Overwhelmed, drained.

I offer a compassionate and client-centered approach to therapy that utilizes both holistic and evidence-based practices to help my clients have all the tools they need to make meaningful and inspiring life choices for themselves.

I help my clients find effective ways of coping with difficult life circumstances.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has worked in several diverse settings, which has given me a unique therapeutic approach. I am passionate about working with individuals who have felt unseen and misunderstood.

Embarking upon your therapeutic journey can be no easy undertaking. However, I strive to help individuals and families work through life's ebs and flows, and encourage individuals to reach their full potential through mindful conversations and honest feedback. I take on a collaborative approach to healing, and strive to create a safe environment in which client's feel validated and seen. Together, we can create realistic goals that help you overcome life's everyday challenges.

In my practice, I work with couples, individuals, and families utilizing methods from Emotionally Focused Therapy. This scientifically proven approach, developed by Dr. Sue Johnson, helps people understand and improve their emotional connection with themselves and others. Couples learn how to reconnect through listening, validation, and empathy. The EFT process, backed by research, enables couples, families, and individuals to create secure attachments, leading to improvements in depression and anxiety. I offer faith-based counseling in my practice according to my client's preferences.
