As a licensed therapist in Illinois, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients address challenges like social anxiety, workplace stress, life transitions, and personal growth. I bring a compassionate, culturally responsive approach to therapy, particularly supporting young adults, women, and individuals from diverse backgrounds.
My therapeutic work focuses on empowering clients to develop self-love, overcome isolation, and explore life purpose. I offer targeted support for those experiencing panic disorders, mood challenges, trauma recovery, and interpersonal dynamics. Drawing from evidence-based practices, using DBT, Mindfulness, and Somatic Experience as part of a therapeutic approach, I create a supportive environment where clients can explore their experiences, build resilience, and cultivate meaningful personal transformation.
With a deep commitment to understanding each individual's unique journey, I strive to provide affirming, personalized care that honors your lived experiences and supports your path toward healing and growth.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
