I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and doctoral intern in clinical psychology, with a focus on supporting children, adolescents, and young adults. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, life transitions, and identity development, including exploration of culture, values, gender, and sense of self. I help young people make sense of their experiences and understand how their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are shaped by what they have been through. My approach is warm, nonjudgmental, and empowering, grounded in evidence-based practices like CBT and always tailored to each individual’s needs. I believe that healing begins with feeling seen, and I work collaboratively with clients to build insight, strengthen coping strategies, and grow with confidence into who they are becoming.

Mindfulness-Based Therapy (MBT)
I am a compassionate mental health therapist who graduated from Loyola University in Chicago, with a specialization in mental health and trauma processing. I provide psychotherapy to teens, young adults, and adults. I offer a nurturing, nonjudgmental, inviting and warm space to my practice, utilizing a variety of evidence-based interventions to help you overcome any obstacles you may be facing. I have worked with a variety of therapeutic approaches in my practice, including trauma-based and psychodynamic frameworks, mindfulness and meditation, cognitive therapies (stemming from CBT/DBT), relational and interpersonal approaches. My clinical interests include whole-person centered care, teens and adults facing difficult life-transitions and adjustments, self-esteem, mood disorders, complex trauma, and emerging young adulthood. I believe that providing a warm, safe space for individuals to consider and care for each part of self (mind-body-spirit) paves the path towards healing. I approach our conversations with both curiosity and intuition. My ultimate goal is for every person to feel safe and comfortable sharing their story, developing a connection that promotes lasting change, and identifying goals where we can journey through this work together.

I’m a warm, non-judgmental therapist who truly values building real human connections with my clients. I bring empathy, a gentle presence, and even a bit of humor into the room, creating a safe and comfortable space where people feel seen and heard. I genuinely care for my clients not just as patients, but as people. I specialize in working with adolescents and young adults, and I’m also experienced in supporting adults. I help clients navigate depression, anxiety, ADHD, OCD, self-injury, suicidal ideation, low self-esteem, relationship struggles, behavioral concerns, and family conflict. My therapeutic foundation is rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), but I draw from a variety of approaches to meet each client’s unique needs. I emphasize trust, authenticity, and helping clients connect with their values to guide meaningful change. My goal is to support each person in feeling safe enough to explore what’s going on inside and around them, and empowered enough to move toward the life they want. Therapy with me is about finding your footing again—and feeling like yourself.
