Aetna Child Therapists in Illinois

I am a compassionate, structured, and non-judgemental therapist with years of clinical expertise. We all have roadblocks along our life path. Together we can work through your struggles and challenges until you can fly solo. I work with clients from 5 - 105. You are not alone, we can tackle your symptoms and issues and you will start to feel in control of your life again. I treat depression, anxiety, panic, PTSD, self-esteem, women's issues, trauma, loss, selective mutism, grief, and more.

I am a compassionate, bilingual (English/Spanish), culturally responsive therapist. I strive to create a safe, supportive environment where children feel heard, understood, and empowered. For families who desire it, I am able to thoughtfully integrate Christian faith and biblical principles into the counseling process, recognizing the important role spirituality can play in healing, forgiveness, and personal growth.

I am a compassionate Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with over a decade of experience supporting adolescents and young adults as they navigate life’s challenges and transitions. I work with clients ages 13–30 experiencing anxiety, depression, PTSD, grief, low self-esteem, relationship challenges, stress, burnout, and other concerns that may impact their emotional well-being. My background includes healthcare, hospice, rehabilitation, child welfare, and community-based social work, providing me with a well-rounded understanding of the many factors that influence mental health. My approach is grounded in empathy, collaboration, and evidence-based practices, creating a safe and nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered. I believe therapy should help clients recognize their strengths, develop healthy coping skills, build confidence, and gain the tools needed to navigate life with greater clarity, resilience, and purpose.
