I’m passionate about working with my clients to establish treatable goals and outcomes in order to become contributing members of society. We all have the power to help ourselves, but sometimes we need extra support and guidance and my role is to do just that, but in a safe and nonjudgmental environment. My ultimate goal with my clients is to provide an empathetic and compassionate ear while giving them my undivided attention. I would like to grow with them and build a collaborative therapeutic relationship until we have successfully accomplished our goals. I work with all age groups and use variety of ways to best serve your needs.
I have been a school social worker since 2014 and worked with children and adolescents, especially those who may have special education services through an individual education plan (IEP). I have also worked in a hospital setting providing level of care assessments in the Emergency Room to individuals who suffer from mild to severe mental health issues.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and have received my Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education from University of Illinois at Chicago and Master’s in Social Worker from Loyola University Chicago with a concentration in Schools, Children & Family, and Health. Please visit our website or call us so we can help you.
