As a therapist, I am open to working with people from all walks of life. Everyone is unique and deserves the chance to be supported and guided, no matter what their personal journey may entail. I believe in building a therapeutic bond with my clients so they feel heard and understood, allowing them to be themselves. I use psychoeducation, client strengths, and trauma informed approaches to assist clients on their therapeutic journey. From processing emotions, to teaching skill, to helping gain understanding and insight... I meet clients where they are and help them get to where they want to be.
In my business Soothing Souls Therapeutic Services, LLC, I offer virtual therapy to children, teens, adults, and couples throughout Illinois and Missouri. Additionally, I provide professional consultations, staff trainings and speaking events tailored to community needs. Anxiety, self-esteem, stress, grief, & parenting are a just a FEW areas I can help with!
If you need a safe space to be yourself and feel supported, reach out.

A lot of my practice involves teaching clients self-love and acceptance. Learning to "pour into oneself" is one of the most beneficial things we can do as humans because it makes our own lives easier as well as the ability to pour into others.
