What do therapy sessions with you look like?
As an experienced Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC/LCPC) with over 15 years in the field, I provide a clear, actionable path forward for adults navigating life’s most complex challenges. Having worked at every level of mental health intervention—from high-stakes hospital crisis units to long-term therapy—I bring a unique, "all-levels" perspective to your care. My goal is to help you break free from being "stuck" and move toward a more functional, satisfying life. My therapeutic approach is a balanced integration of three powerful modalities: Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) for tangible coping skills, Psychodynamic Counseling for deep insight into life patterns, and Person-Centered Therapy to ensure your goals remain the priority. I specialize in Men’s Mental Health, Anxiety, Depression, and Anger Management, offering direct and energetic guidance tailored to your specific needs. Whether you are managing ADHD, recovering from substance use, or navigating a major life transition, I provide the tools and clarity necessary to handle life's ups and downs with confidence. Currently accepting new clients via secure telehealth in Illinois, Missouri, and California, I am dedicated to helping you gain the insight and resilience needed to create a future you are excited to live.
I have worked at every level of intervention in mental health. From ongoing, maintenance counseling to helping people struggling with life and death in the community and in the hospital settings. I use person-centered counseling, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) and psychodynamic counseling modalities. Sometimes, I use them individually but mostly I use a balance of all three modalities. I enjoy helping clients gain insight into their life, their life patterns and to identify the best ways for the client to create a more functional and satisfying life.

What do therapy sessions with you look like?
A therapy session with me is collaborative, supportive, and tailored to your needs. We begin by exploring what brings you to therapy and what your goals are, creating a safe space where you can be heard without judgment. I combine active listening with practical tools and evidence-based strategies, drawing from CBT, ACT, DBT, ERP, and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) when appropriate. Sessions may include processing emotions, psychoeducation, learning coping skills, exploring patterns in thoughts and behaviors, or working through trauma.
Life’s challenges—anxiety, depression, stress, and difficult relationships—can leave you feeling stuck. While these struggles can feel overwhelming, meaningful change is possible. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor at Nourish Within, working with teens, college students, young professionals, and adults. I specialize in eating disorders, body image concerns, trauma, and mood and anxiety challenges. My passion for this work comes from both professional training and lived experience, including my own journey with an eating disorder and depression, which allows me to approach therapy with compassion and understanding. My approach is warm, collaborative, and strengths-based, integrating CBT, ACT, DBT, ERP, and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART). ART uses guided eye movements to support trauma relief, helping the brain process distressing experiences—many clients noticing improvement in as few as one session. I also provide psychoeducation and support for families. I have experience across residential, partial hospitalization, and intensive outpatient levels of care, giving me insight into how mental health affects both daily functioning and overall quality of life. If you’re feeling stuck or ready for change, I’m here to help. Together, we can work toward clarity, confidence, and a life aligned with your values.

Therapy sessions with me are supportive, collaborative, and tailored to each client’s needs and goals. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental environment where clients can openly express themselves while working on practical coping skills, self-awareness, and personal growth.
