Hi there! I am a licensed clinical therapist specialized in child and adolescent counseling along with adult CBT. I am passionate about working with all ages on various presenting difficulties. I have also spent years in community mental health joining clients on their journey to mental health recovery back into their community. Most recently I have been extensively trained at The Depression and Anxiety Specialty Clinic of Chicago's Advanced CBT Fellowship where I completed the program and stayed on staff for years after.

My approach is a collaborative effort utilizing multiple modalities of evidence based therapy stemming from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). This is how we will work together to challenge unhelpful thoughts and behaviors while replacing them with more helpful ones to live a more values driven life. I also utilize Radically Open-DBT (RO-DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), ADHD, grief counseling, and CBT-I (Insomnia). Through creating a treatment plan together our time will encompass multiple therapeutic techniques where together we can work on obtaining your needs and a more values life driven for YOU.
