Have you found yourself feeling stuck in an emotion, environment, or stressful relationship? Maybe the anxiety you are experiencing is becoming too overwhelming, or a situation you never imagined yourself in is now your reality. These circumstances can often be all-consuming and make you question how healing could ever be possible. Health, healing, and transformation may seem so far away. You are not alone. You are worthy of health and healing. This journey toward wellness can feel so daunting, especially when you are struggling. Today, I am here to ask questions, listen, and encourage you in your journey toward healing. I would consider it a profound honor to work with you through it!

My heart and life’s passion are for walking alongside people in the real struggles of life. I fully realized my calling to be a counselor by counseling loved ones who were faced with the pain of grief and various mental health struggles. I have seen and known the sleepless nights, anxious days, and perpetual uncertainty about what the future holds. Going through what I have has allowed me to better engage with a few of my other passions, such as reading, playing guitar and singing, engaging with my faith, and exploring the restaurant scene in Chicago with those I’m fond of.

Every person is so much more than a circumstance or symptom. You are the expert of your own story, and in therapy, we will work toward one of the greatest human pursuits – to “know thyself.” We can explore past experiences and current patterns to gain insight into the ways we strive to meet our innate needs of belonging, connection, and meaning. Together, we’ll embark on a journey that will help you see that you don’t have to carry life’s burdens alone. Cultivating a sense of feeling seen and understood, we will collaborate in drawing upon your innate strengths as we establish new, healthier ways of relating to yourself, others, and the world. Don’t hesitate to give our office a call and schedule a session with me today.
