As a licensed therapist in Illinois, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My professional approach centers on helping clients work through challenges like depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and trauma. I'm deeply committed to creating a compassionate, affirming therapeutic environment where individuals can explore their inner experiences and develop meaningful strategies for healing.
My clinical expertise focuses on addressing social anxiety, panic disorders, post-traumatic stress, and attachment-related concerns. I'm particularly passionate about guiding clients through journeys of self-love, healing from guilt and shame, and developing healthier relationship patterns. Whether you're experiencing life transitions like divorce, struggling with body image, or seeking to build stronger self-esteem, I offer supportive, personalized guidance.
I believe in meeting each person exactly where they are, honoring their unique experiences and inherent strengths. My goal is to collaborate with you, providing a safe space for growth, understanding, and transformative healing.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
