Welcome

I’m a licensed clinical social worker in Oak Park, IL, and I’ve been practicing individual and family therapy for over 11 years, working with children, adolescents, and adults. It's my strong belief that the connection we build is at the heart of meaningful therapy. My goal is to create an environment that’s warm, honest, and collaborative—one where you can feel safe, understood, and supported.

​

I know it takes courage to reach out, to make that first call, and to open up. I honor that courage by listening with care and compassion, and by really striving to understand who you are and what you’re going through.

My role is to walk alongside you as you explore new perspectives, develop more helpful ways of thinking, and challenge patterns that might be holding you back. We’ll work together to uncover what you need and want—and how to get there.

​

How I Work

I take an eclectic approach, rooted in psychodynamic therapy. That means I focus on understanding you as a whole person, and I see our relationship as the foundation for growth and insight. Along the way, I draw on tools from CBT, DBT, and mindfulness to support you in your day-to-day challenges and goals.​

​

Who I Work With

I work with children, adolescents, and adults from diverse backgrounds, including those who identify as LGBTQ+. I'm experienced in treating people experiencing anxiety, depression, school and work related issues and relational issues. I have an extensive background working with neurodiverse clients with ADHD and autism spectrum and related disorders. It’s a privilege to be part of someone’s process, and I welcome the opportunity to do this work together.

Insurance

I am in-network with Blue Cross Blue Shield PPO, United Healthcare/ Optum, and Cigna insurance plans. Other insurance providers are considered out-of-network. Please feel free to reach out if you have questions about coverage or need help navigating insurance.
