Online Therapy for Kids, Teens & Young Adults in Oak Park

I am a compassionate mental health therapist and Licensed Social Worker who earned my Master of Social Work from Washington University in St. Louis, specializing in mental health practice. I am deeply committed to supporting children, adolescents, adults, and older adults as they navigate challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, chronic illness, and emotional dysregulation. My clinical approach is grounded in empathy, cultural humility, and evidence-based interventions including CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care. I strive to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel truly heard and empowered to explore their emotions, build coping skills, and strengthen self-confidence. My goal is to help every individual recognize their strengths, heal past wounds, and develop resilience to move toward personal growth and emotional well-being.

I use a client-centered approach that integrates evidence-based techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness. My work is grounded in collaboration, respect, and an understanding that each client’s experiences and goals are unique. I have experience supporting individuals who struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, ADHD, and challenges related to self-worth. In our work together, we will identify your strengths, explore patterns that may be holding you back, and develop practical strategies tailored to your specific needs. Therapy is not one-size-fits-all. I partner with clients to create an individualized treatment plan that supports meaningful growth and lasting change. My goal is to help you build insight, resilience, and skills that you can continue to use beyond our sessions. Many clients leave therapy feeling more confident, empowered, and equipped with tools they can apply in everyday life.
