My nursing career began in 2010 when I first became a Registered Nurse. In 2017 I graduated from Maryville University in St. Louis, MO with my master’s degree in nursing and became a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP-C) licensed in Illinois. I have been blessed to work in many facets of healthcare since and has also become a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC). With a strong foundation in both primary care and mental health, my approach aligns overall wellness and hormone optimization with physical, mental, and lifestyle well-being.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Aurora, IL
Finding addiction therapists in Aurora starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Addiction care can include support for alcohol use, drug use, compulsive behaviors, relapse prevention, and co-occurring concerns like anxiety, depression, or trauma. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties that match what you want to work on. Some therapists use approaches like motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, harm reduction, or coordination with a prescriber when medication management is part of the care plan.
In a mid-size city like Aurora, you may find a mix of local office-based therapists and virtual options across the surrounding area. Virtual care can expand your choices if you want a specific approach, a therapist with addiction experience, or appointment times that fit your schedule. It may also help to review whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers flexible scheduling, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios can show how they describe recovery, harm reduction, communication style, and experience supporting people with substance use or behavioral addiction concerns.
Therapy in Aurora can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs and understand what you may pay before you book. Headway helps you find addiction therapists, shows estimated costs after you enter your insurance details, and lets you book directly when you find a fit. You can browse therapists, compare bios, and choose care that matches your needs, schedule, and coverage.
