Teletherapy for Illinois

As a therapist, I aim to meet my clients where they are and provide guidance and skill development that allows them to meet their goals. I work with substance use, addiction, anxiety, depression, OCD, grief and loss, suicidality, and expected and unexpected life changes. I am here to listen and support you if you need to find hope or are struggling with life's challenges.

Taking the brave step of going to therapy can be extremely difficult. But it can also be very rewarding. I am committed to helping my clients find peace and acceptance through understanding themselves and exploring their life experiences. Together we will navigate challenges one faces today in order to move towards a better present and future. Creating an environment of acceptance so clients feel safe to be vulnerable is very important to me. I take an authentic and empathetic approach to meet my clients where they are and work with them to reach their mental health goals through honest reflection and productive conversation.

I welcome clients who see themselves aligned with values in my profile, especially those who seeking a better therapy experience grounded in emotional connection, social justice, and authenticity. Therapy has the potential to be incredibly healing, but also comes from a history of harm, having othered people on the basis of age, race, gender, sexuality, spirituality, and disability. I offer a trauma-responsive relationship through which we can explore narrative healing of your authentic self, commitments to anti-oppressive and anti-racist living, anti-adultist parenting support, and supportive community and relationship building.

My ideal clients are feeling stuck and looking to make positive changes in their lives. They are looking for a partner in their healing journey. They are looking to be heard, understood, and given practical solutions to overcome obstacles that are holding them back. They are looking for a therapist who does more than just listen and offer interpretations. They are looking to make tangible changes in their lives - working on issues of anxiety, depression, stress, relationship problems, grief, and substance use.

It is inevitable that life is challenging and often times, we feel stuck and need reminders that we are not alone. As a psychotherapist, I understand that each client has a unique story of their own and that each client deserves tailored and individualized care. We will start by establishing what goals you would like to achieve in therapy and will then create a treatment plan collaboratively. I tend to pull from your strengths and values, and will work with you to unpack unhelpful thinking patterns and maladaptive behaviors and will explore alternative coping skills that will be more sustainable for you in the long run.

Hello, I'm an aspiring art therapist with a passion for fostering healing and growth through creative expression. I’m currently pursuing a master’s degree in art therapy and counseling at SAIC. I bring a wealth of experience gained from working with diverse age groups & demographics at a behavioral health hospital. As an immigrant, my cultural insights add a distinctive dimension to my practice. I prioritize diversity, inclusivity, and cultural sensitivity. I recognize that mental health struggles are multifaceted, and I'm committed to guiding individuals through these challenges via the transformative power of art.

Seeking therapy is a chance to rebuild, strengthen, and change. Therapy can present an immense opportunity for growth; a process allowing you to change how you relate to others, strengthen how you view yourself, and rebuild how you experience life. I take an active approach in the therapy space, in both listening and teaching. Clients can expect to gain knowledge and skills needed to deal with life’s stressors and struggles. The collaborative process can help you identify goals, develop actionable steps, gain curiosity and compassion for your circumstances, and build a healthier relationship with yourself and the life you envision.

I am compassionate and understanding psychotherapist who is dedicated to helping you through your daily struggles that might be interfering with your life. I'm able to support individuals (youth, adults, and elderly) while utilizing an integrative and collaborative approach. Being able to work with the individual to identify skills and values that they each hold to help them to the fullest. I have experience working with the LGBTQIA++ community. I am a trauma informed therapist, who utilizes active listening. Feeling alone when you are struggling is not ideal; I am here to help you identify coping skills to help you.

Taking the step to get counseling takes a lot of courage. You are already on your way to reach your desired goals. I believe that everyone faces their own challenges and has their own unique experience, but you don't have to go through it on our own. It is my job to guide you in your journey to reach health and happiness. I work with adults, elders, and adolescents ages 12-17 with anxiety, depression, sexual trauma, and grief and loss. I also have special insights with people who are marginalized (BIPOC, LGBT+, Women etc.).
