Pronouns: she/her/hers
I have over 10 years of experience helping others and view therapy as a collaborative process. I see each person as a unique individual. I will meet you where you are, taking into account your cultural identity, background, and life experiences, and we will work together to create meaningful goals. I utilize Evidence Based Treatments like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) in my work, with also recognizing different people have different needs and I am able to adjust my practice to fit your needs.
We can work together to reduce negative thinking patterns and stress, feel more connected to yourself and others, and decrease worry and find meaning in your life. I help you identify and use your strengths, utilize coping skills, and create lasting changes.
My background is in social work and my credentials are LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) and PMH-C (Perinatal Mental Health Certification). This means I received specialized training and certification around supporting folx during the time they are trying to get pregnant, are pregnant, or are in the postpartum period. I am dually licensed in California and Illinois which means if you reside in either CA or IL, we can work together!
Things I love to do: Spending time with my two young children, going for walks and being in nature, and coffee shops with lavender lattes.
