My Background and Approach
I am a licensed clinical professional counselor. I have my perinatal mental health certification as well as my ADHD-Certified Clinical Services Provider (ADHD-CCSP) Certification. I use relational therapy, with a mix of ACT, CBT, and Motivational Interviewing, which I tailor based on your goals and preferences for the therapeutic approach. I have experience working with individuals of all backgrounds. Some of this experience includes; folks experiencing anxiety, identity shifts, processing trauma, working on developing secure attachments and healthy relationships, navigating an ADHD diagnosis as an adult, and parenting. I'm a firm believer that your relationship with your therapist is important; please visit my website to schedule a free consultation call!
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe in honoring and respecting all identities, dedication to continued training in cultural humility, and client autonomy in the therapeutic process. I approach therapy through a trauma informed and culturally sensitive lens, and believe that the therapeutic relationship and connection is an opportunity in and of itself for transformation. Before entering private practice, I started a nonprofit organization called Women Unite!, whose aim was to come together in strength and solidarity to amplify grassroots organizations in Chicago and better the world around us. My goal is not to sit there and nod throughout sessions; I use gentle confrontation and accountability. I will also chat like a real human about things like books or TV shows, or my favorite neighborhoods in Chicago, instead of remaining a mysterious therapist.
