About My Clients
My clinical focus areas and interests are particularly around emerging adults, those going through life transitions, and relational conflict. I am interested in helping those with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, self-esteem and occupational stress.
My Background and Approach
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker that has been serving a variety of populations from incarcerated people, low-income, people of color, older adults, and those with chronic conditions since 2017. From a young age I wanted to know how people felt and how I could help them. I started pursuing a degree in journalism, but I didn’t feel like I was on the right track. I was challenged one day to look at a list of values and choose my top three. I wrote down: responsibility, dedication, and service. Upon looking at that list, agonizing over a major life change, and consulting with loved ones, I determined that I wanted a career in social work. I moved to Florida, got a part time job that focused on connecting volunteers with volunteer work, and completed my bachelor’s degree in Social Work at Florida Atlantic University. I moved back to Illinois and completed my master’s in Social Work at the University of Illinois at Chicago in May 2018.
