About My Clients

I specialize in providing telehealth services to adult couples and motivated individuals who reside in the state of Illinois. Those who feel stuck in repetitive patterns, whether that looks like communication breakdowns, eroded trust, constant anxiety, or feeling overwhelmed find themselves to be the right fit with me. My clients are typically ready to move past quick fix-it advice and do the meaningful, collaborative work required to repair relationships and build emotional safety.

My Background and Approach

My approach is grounded in warmth, attentiveness, and practical collaboration. I believe therapy should be a space where you feel genuinely heard and supported while developing real tools for change. In my work with couples and individuals, I lean into Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to help identify underlying emotional cycles and needs that drive conflict. By understanding these patterns, we work together to rebuild trust, deepen intimacy, and restore healthy communication. For individual clients experiencing stress or anxiety, I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) strategies to help reframe anxious loops and establish grounding habits. Prior to becoming a therapist, I worked as a professional data privacy consultant. That experience gives me a firsthand understanding of workplace burnout, career transitions, and the unique pressure of balancing high-stress careers with personal relationships.
