I believe that medication is sometimes helpful, but it is not always the whole answer. Mental health challenges rarely come from one single source, and true healing often requires looking deeper. Together, we will work to identify underlying patterns, stressors, and root causes rather than simply treating symptoms.
I am a dual board-certified psychiatric and geriatric nurse practitioner with over 25 years of healthcare experience, providing compassionate, evidence-based mental health care to young adults, adults, and older adults. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, insomnia, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia spectrum disorders, and behavioral or psychological symptoms associated with dementia and complex medical conditions.
My experience spans hospital care, rehabilitation, hospice, and long-term care settings, giving me a deep understanding of the connection between physical and mental health. I am especially comfortable supporting individuals with multiple medical concerns or those navigating life transitions related to aging, illness, or stress.
I support clients through a warm, attuned, and relationship‐centered approach. My intention is to be collaborative, helpful, and grounded in trust‐based, relational work. If you’re ready for a space where your story is honored, I'm here. It can be a struggle in how we connect, trust, and regulate our emotions throughout life which influences our levels of anxiety, depression, and overall ability to manage mood. I have worked with persons with disabilities, children, adults, and families to help find balance.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an ADHD Therapist in Aurora, IL
Finding ADHD therapists in Aurora starts with understanding what kind of support fits your needs. Therapists can help with executive function skills, CBT for ADHD, emotional regulation strategies, organization, focus, and related concerns like anxiety or depression. Medication management is different from therapy and is handled by a psychiatrist or other qualified prescriber. Some people look for one type of care, while others work with both. If you are searching for adult ADHD support, pediatric ADHD support, or help after an ADHD evaluation, review each therapist’s listed specialties and approach before booking.
Aurora has local therapy options, and virtual appointments can add more flexibility when nearby availability, commute time, or scheduling needs shape your search. ADHD can also overlap with anxiety, depression, sleep concerns, school stress, or work stress, so it helps to look for a therapist with experience across the concerns that matter to you. As you compare Aurora therapists, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, therapy style, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading bios can show how a therapist structures sessions, communicates, and supports people living with ADHD.
Therapy in Aurora can be a significant investment without insurance, and using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, including many who are accepting new patients, and offers upfront cost estimates after you enter your insurance details. You can compare ADHD therapists in Aurora, review bios, check availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
