As a therapist, I understand that reaching out for support can feel challenging, even daunting, at times. However, it's essential to recognize that this very act of reaching out is a significant stride towards your well-being, and an important step to personal growth.
As a dedicated and compassionate therapist, I am committed to helping individuals navigate life's challenges and achieve their full potential. With a master’s degree in social work from the University of Illinois at Chicago, and a wealth of experience in inpatient psychiatry, I bring a strong foundation of knowledge and empathy to my practice. I utilize a blend of evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Strengths-Based Theory, and Motivational Interviewing to create tailored treatment plans that address each client's unique needs. My specialties include stress management, trauma, and life transition.
My client-centered approach ensures that you are at the heart of our therapeutic journey, and together, we will work collaboratively to explore and build upon your strengths while addressing any obstacles that may be impeding your personal growth. I believe that a therapeutic relationship is built on trust, empathy, and understanding. In our sessions, you can expect a warm and welcoming atmosphere where you can freely explore your thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment. Your comfort and well-being are my top priorities, and together, we will work towards your goals at your own pace.
