Psychotherapist

Are you a thinker? Are you feeling stuck and overwhelmed? Are you managing your life, or is life managing you? Is self-care just another chore on your to-do list? Do you dream about how your life could be? I believe the counseling relationship offers support, promotes self-development, and guides us through the difficult challenges of managing relationships. With over 21 years of experience and a dual specialization in mental health and schools, I am committed to helping you navigate these challenges. I hold a Master's in Social Work from the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, which has equipped me with the skills and knowledge to provide compassionate and effective care.
