About

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in the Chicagoland area, with over a decade of experience walking alongside people through moments of crisis, transition, and healing. Since earning my Master of Social Work from Loyola University Chicago in 2016 and becoming clinically licensed in 2018, I’ve worked in a wide range of settings—from private practice and partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient programs (PHP/IOP) to high school and college counseling offices. My clinical approach is rooted in evidence-based practices, with advanced training in CBT, DBT, ACT, and several trauma-informed modalities including CPT, TF-CBT, DDP, NMT, ARC, and Brainspotting. Whether I’m supporting youth or adults, individuals or families, I believe deeply in each person’s capacity to grow, adapt, and find meaning—even in the face of pa Wherever you’re starting from, I’m here to offer a safe, supportive space to explore what’s next. Specialties: I have spent the last 13 years ( including time prior to obtaining my MSW degree) walking with clients through crisis. I believe all people have the tools and strengths to pull through moments of distress. I would be honored to walk with you through your journey towards renewal. Credentials & Experience: I have spent the last 13 years providing compassionate crisis care to a diverse population of clients experiencing acute distress. I also have advanced training in multiple trauma informed treatment modalities.
