A Little About Me
I believe healing is a collaborative, ever-evolving process that involves much more than simply reducing symptoms. My work is grounded in person-centered therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and mindfulness, helping clients better understand their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors while developing tools to feel more grounded and connected. I also bring a holistic perspective to therapy, recognizing the important role that movement, relationships, physical health, environment, and a sense of purpose all play in emotional well-being. My background includes training in holistic health coaching, food and mental health, stress management, burnout, and crisis response.
I became a therapist because I deeply believe in the power of therapy and consider it a privilege to walk alongside people as they heal and grow. Outside of the therapy room, you’ll often find me walking my dog along the lake, discovering a new coffee shop or bookstore around Chicago, spending time in nature, or getting lost in a great book. I also frequently recommend Atomic Habits to clients who want to build meaningful, lasting change one small step at a time.
If you’re ready to better understand yourself, break free from patterns that no longer serve you, and build a life that feels more grounded and fulfilling, I’d be honored to support you.
