With over 13 years of experience and a doctoral degree, I have worked with a wide range of people. Many people who see me now are between 20-50, though I see all adults! I work a lot with depression, anxiety, burnout, and bipolar disorder.
Clients often describe me as approachable, practical, and easy to talk to. Therapy should be a collaborative process, and I strive to create a space where you feel comfortable being yourself without fear of judgment. My style balances support with practical problem-solving, helping clients gain insight while also developing strategies they can use in everyday life. Above all, I want you to feel heard, understood, and supported as we work toward your goals together.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 20 years of professional experience supporting children and families. Throughout my career, I have primarily worked with school-age children and their families, helping them navigate emotional, behavioral, and life challenges with compassion and practical guidance.
Hello, and thank you for taking the time to read about my professional background.
I graduated with my bachelor's in social work in 2013 from MacMurray College in Jacksonville IL.
I furthered my education at the University of Illinois Urbana/Champaign School of Social Work and graduated with my Masters in SW in 2017.
I have gained 13 years of experience with the majority of those years spent in psychiatric facilities for children and adults.
I specialize in motivational interviewing, DBT, CBT, and a multitude of other treatment styles.
My nursing career began in 2010 when I first became a Registered Nurse. In 2017 I graduated from Maryville University in St. Louis, MO with my master’s degree in nursing and became a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP-C) licensed in Illinois. I have been blessed to work in many facets of healthcare since and has also become a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC). With a strong foundation in both primary care and mental health, my approach aligns overall wellness and hormone optimization with physical, mental, and lifestyle well-being.
Your experience with me will always be grounded in compassion, honesty, and respect. I believe people grow when they feel heard and understood, so I work hard to create a space where you feel safe being yourself. I am collaborative and down-to-earth, and I will meet you exactly where you are while helping you move toward the life you want.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) dedicated to helping individuals, couples, and families heal from trauma, strengthen relationships, and rediscover their sense of self. I earned my Master of Social Work from Aurora University in 2020 and provide compassionate, evidence-based care tailored to each client's unique needs.
My clinical experience includes individual, couples, and family therapy, with specialized experience in marriage counseling, blended family dynamics, adoption, and positive parenting. I have worked in a therapeutic day school supporting children and adolescents experiencing anxiety, trauma, school refusal, and other complex mental health concerns. I also served as a therapist at a domestic violence shelter, providing trauma-informed care to children and adolescents impacted by grief, abuse, attachment wounds, and identity-related challenges.
I specialize in treating trauma, anxiety, depression, complex PTSD, OCD, dissociative disorders, behavioral concerns, and relationship challenges. My therapeutic approach integrates evidence-based interventions with empathy and authenticity to create a safe, supportive space where clients feel understood, empowered, and equipped with practical tools for lasting growth.
I believe our experiences influence who we are, but they do not determine who we can become. Healing is a journey, and my goal is to help you build resilience, embrace your strengths, and confidently move forward into the next chapter of your life.
A lot of people who reach out for therapy are used to holding things together on the outside while quietly feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, emotionally exhausted, or stuck underneath it all.
They overthink decisions, carry pressure constantly, struggle to slow their mind down, or notice they keep repeating patterns they already understand but still cannot seem to change.
