Family Therapists in Illinois

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing trauma-informed care empowering individuals to move beyond survival, and toward a more fulfilling, connected life. I provide services for children aged 5 and older, adolescents, and adults. I utilize an integrated approach that considers your unique needs and goals. Drawing from evidence-based modalities including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Internal Family Systems (IFS), we will build practical coping skills, increase psychological flexibility, and cultivate self-compassion. Through narrative processing, we will work to assign meaning to your experiences—transforming painful or confusing chapters into integrated parts of your story. Together we will examine how past experiences influence present dynamics, allowing you to better understand yourself and respond more purposefully focusing not only on symptom relief but on deep, sustainable change.

When not working, I enjoy spending time with my friends, family and my pets. I enjoy traveling and going to the gym
