Hello, I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in the state of Illinois, Florida, and Massachusetts (LICSW/LCSW). I earned a Master of Social Work degree in Advanced Clinical Social Work in Independent Clinical Practice and Health Care Specialization from Aurora University in 2016. I am a Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor. I have experience working with individuals experiencing symptoms related to anxiety, panic attacks, social anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, stress, LGBTQ+ related issues, imposter syndrome, low self-esteem, perfectionism, grief, loneliness, ADHD, OCD, and substance abuse.
I use evidence-based practices such as: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), DBT Informed Therapy Skills, Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), Motivational Interviewing, Positive Psychology, Talk Therapy, Humanistic Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy, Psychodynamic therapy, and Exposure Therapy.
Through personal challenges and struggles in my life, I realized how important it is to have someone listen to you and support you. Seeking support from others during a difficult time is a strength; not a weakness. We learn how to cope, manage, and heal by sharing our struggles and hardships with others. My mission is to help others achieve their goals.

If you have a mental health condition, I can assess and evaluate to see if an ESA would help reduce your anxiety, stress, and depression symptoms. I often write ESA Letters to individuals who use ESA to help reduce and manage their mental health symptoms. I think it is important for other people to have ESA as a coping tool to help support individuals who suffer from mental health conditions.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients manage their anxiety and depression symptoms. Learning and practicing CBT skills will help people identify cognitive distortions, challenge unhelpful thoughts, and reframe negative/anxious thinking so they can feel better.
