About My Clients
Are anxiety or depression holding you back? Do life transitions or relationship issues feel overwhelming? I specialize in helping adults who face these challenges. In my practice, you'll find a compassionate, non-judgmental space where we work together to develop practical strategies for resilience and well-being. Whether you're dealing with stress, seeking better relationships, or striving for personal growth, I'm here to support you every step of the way.
My Background and Approach
With over 8 years of experience as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I have dedicated my career to helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and life transitions. I hold a Master of Social Work from Aurora University and have worked in both community mental health settings and private practice. My approach is warm, compassionate, and client-centered, ensuring you feel safe and supported as we work together. I use evidence-based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), tailoring our sessions to meet your unique needs and goals. In our sessions, you'll gain a deeper understanding of your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. We'll explore what's happening in your brain and body when anxiety or depression takes over, equipping you with the skills to find relief and prevent future episodes. Together, we'll build your resilience and help you achieve a healthier, happier life.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe that everyone has the capacity for change and growth, no matter their circumstances. Mental health issues often stem from unhealthy learned behaviors, which means they can be unlearned and replaced with healthier ones. My own experiences with anxiety and therapy have shown me the power of resilience and self-discovery, and I aim to help others find that same freedom. I am passionate about creating an inclusive and supportive environment for all my clients. I actively support the LGBTQ+ community and participate in events and initiatives that promote equality and mental well-being. I also believe in the importance of community involvement and volunteer regularly with local organizations that focus on mental health awareness and support.
