I believe counseling works best when it feels like a true partnership. Life brings challenges—anxiety, grief, relationship strain, trauma, depression—and sometimes we need support to understand what we're experiencing and find our way forward. I work with individuals, couples, and families across all ages, from children through elders, using evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, narrative work, and person-centered practice. My goal is to create a welcoming space where you feel genuinely heard and respected, tailoring our work to your unique situation rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach. Whether you're navigating a specific crisis or sensing that something needs to shift in your life, I'm here to help you develop practical coping strategies and make meaningful changes. I'm currently accepting new clients and offer both in-person and telehealth sessions. I work with most major insurance carriers, including Blue Cross Blue Shield of Illinois, Aetna, Cigna Healthcare, and UnitedHealthcare.
