I am ready to partner with you as we commit to your growth as a person and professional. It takes great courage to sit with another person and share what you have kept dormant. Often times this includes a secret carefully stowed, aspirations and dreams waiting to ignite, and your deepest desires for connection, belonging, and purpose. I work hard at earning your trust, devote the time and resources to grow as a clinician, have a team of mentors and consultants, and built the foundation of my skills in the most challenging/rewarding training environments. My success is only possible when current/previous clients are soaring!

We may work well together if you are looking to: bring your authentic self to romantic and platonic relationships, prepare for or in a current life transition (marriage, parenting), find adaptive ways to manage stress, maintain a balance of mind-body in demanding environments (school, workplace, relationship, family of origin), and explore your career.

I am available for virtual appointments only. Please e-mail for a virtual consultation. This would give us both a sense of how comfortably and efficiently we could begin the work. If you are ready to start please text me directly - 312-646-0809 - with a short introduction and ask when we may connect. Servicios son ofrecidos en español.
