About My Clients
I have extensive experience working with youth/adolescents and adults in individual, family, or couples therapy, helping clients tackle mental health concerns like depression, stress, anxiety, hyperactivity disorders, and post-traumatic stress disorder, as well as relationship issues, domestic violence recovery, and grief. I'm looking forward to working with you when you are ready to take the next step forward!
My Background and Approach
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Illinois. I earned my Bachelor's degree in education/special education and my Master's degree in Social Work from the University of Illinois, and I have 20 years of supervisory and coaching experience. In working with clients, I utilize a culturally sensitive, strengths-based, trauma-informed, and person/family-centered approach. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Mindfulness techniques, as well as other modalities during therapy sessions. Through consistent therapy, I assist clients in identifying negative thought/behavioral patterns and developing healthy coping strategies that lead to more positive, successful living.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I value humility, honesty, integrity, and compassion for myself and others.
