About me

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), licensed in Illinois, with over 10 years of clinical and supervisory experience in the behavioral health field. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, life transitions, substance use issues, issues of emerging adulthood, parenting issues and career challenges. My therapy style is warm and interactive, individualized to each’s client’s specific needs. My approach is solution focused and strength based, utilizing evidence-based treatment modalities, including cognitive behavioral therapy, psychodynamic therapy and mindfulness. I provide a safe, supportive environment in which to collaborate on addressing what is not working in your life. It takes courage to seek to help and take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you!
